TEETH REPLACEMENT
Dental Implants
Dental implants are artificial tooth roots that are used to support a restoration for a missing tooth or teeth, such as a crown, bridge, or denture. They are made of titanium, which is a biocompatible material that fuses with the jawbone.
The dentist prepares the area where the implant will be placed by removing any damaged tissue and makes sure that the bone is strong enough to support the implant.
The implant is placed in the jawbone using a surgical procedure. The implant will be covered with gum tissue and allowed to heal for several months.
The final step is to place the restoration, which can be a crown, bridge, or denture. The restoration will be custom-made to match the shape and color of your natural teeth.
The entire process can take several months, but the final result is a natural-looking and functional replacement for your missing teeth.
Complete & partial Dentures
Dentures are a type of removable artificial teeth that can be worn to replace missing teeth. They are made of acrylic resin or a combination of acrylic resin and other materials and are custom-fitted to the wearer’s mouth and supported by the surrounding tissues of the oral cavity.
The patient’s oral health is first assessed, and impressions of the mouth are taken, and discuss the patient’s treatment options and preferences.
The impressions are used to create a model of the patient’s mouth. The dentures will be custom-made based on this model and typically takes several weeks.
Once the dentures are ready, it is fitted onto the patient. The dental professional will make any necessary adjustments to ensure a proper fit and comfortable wear.
Crown & Bridge
A bridge is a dental appliance used to replace one or more missing teeth. It consists of crowns on either side of the missing tooth or teeth, with a false tooth or teeth in between. A crown is a type of dental restoration that covers and encases a damaged tooth to restore its shape, size, and strength.
The dentist first will prepare the tooth or teeth by removing any decay and shaping the surface to make room for the crown or bridge.
Impressions or digital scans of the teeth will be taken and used to create a custom crown or bridge in a dental laboratory.
A temporary crown or bridge may be placed while the permanent restoration is being made.
the permanent crown or bridge will be cemented or bonded into place. The dentist will carefully adjust and polish the restoration to ensure a comfortable and natural fit.
It is important to practice good oral hygiene and visit the dentist regularly to maintain the health of crowns and bridges and to ensure their longevity.
