If you have lost natural teeth, this can impact the health, function, and beauty of your smile. You could also develop major complications down the road. But we can help! In today’s blog, your team at Brooklyn Periodontics and Implantology talks about how we prevent the terror of tooth loss with custom and lifelike dental implants.
The Terror of Tooth Loss
During the Halloween season, we often indulge in all things spooky, from scary movies to haunted houses and ghost stories. But nothing is quite as terrifying as tooth loss. Whether you lose teeth to injury, tooth decay, or disease, this could leave open spaces in your smile that not only alter your appearance, but impact how you eat and speak. Your jawbone could also lose mass and density, which is linked to an aged appearance. But our team wants to help you avoid the terror of tooth loss with dental implants.
Planning Replacement
To begin, we want to see your smile in detail, obtaining digital x-rays and intraoral camera images or assess the cause and severity of your missing teeth. We also want to assess the strength of your jaw. We then plan treatment in detail. For some, we may need support services to help strengthen the upper and/or lower jaw, so you can support dental implants. We may also need to extract any teeth that are severely diseased or decayed, and could obtain the necessary images to design custom restorations and prosthetics to complete your new tooth roots!
Securing Dental Implants and All-On-Four
Our team will use digital surgical guides to plan and oversee the process of placing dental implants, ensuring they sit at the right angles, positions, and depths to support new teeth properly and last for years to come, possibly decades or longer. For an individual one, we insert the post and attach a restoration complete it, which could be done in one visit. If you have more severe cases of missing teeth, we could insert two dental implants to support a bridge, or four to support a complete row of new teeth. In fact, with All-On-Four, we can insert dental implants and attach a new row of custom and lifelike teeth in the same sitting, so you leave with a full smile.
