Tooth loss and oral health

Tooth loss can occur because of many reasons such as tooth decay, trauma, and periodontal disease. Tooth loss creates an imbalance in the dentition. Teeth nearby tend to move towards the gap leading to biting problems. Food getting stuck in the gap can increase the chances of dental infection. When few teeth are missing the jawbone loses support and starts to shrink. This causes the facial skin to sag. When several teeth are missing the patient loses confidence to eat hard food items. This can create an imbalance in intake of nutritional food. There are different dental prostheses in dentistry which can help in replacing teeth and resolving these problems. Dental implants in Midland have proven to be one of the best among all the options.

Dental implants surgical procedure in midland

Our implant dentist firstly conducts a thorough examination of oral health and checks if the jawbone is healthy enough to hold the implant. If there are any signs of periodontal infection, care is taken to cure the problem before going ahead with the surgery. There is advanced equipment which uses 3D technology that helps dentists plan the position of the implant. The surgery is done with the help of local anesthesia. This makes sure that the procedure is painless. A small incision is done in the soft gum tissues initially which is then followed by the creation of a bony recess in the jaw. The dental implant is carefully torqued in the jawbone. The gums are sutured back and the restoration is left to heal for few months during which it integrates with the jawbone. After this period, the implant dentist takes impressions of the dentition and gets the crown fabricated in the lab. An abutment is fit over the implant and the crown is either cemented or screwed over it. After the process is complete our dentist guides patients on how to take care of the restoration. With proper care, patients can use the prosthesis for at least few decades. Replace single Tooth or Multiple teeth Any number of teeth can be replaced with dental implants in Midland.
