Mini implant ( Narrow implant ) Smaller teeth and incisors are good candidates for mini dental implants as are devices that require stabilization such as lower jaw dentures. Like traditional dental implants, mini dental implants are used to replace missing teeth with the purpose to maintain good oral health. When are Mini Dental Implants Used? Mini dental implants are used to restore lost teeth in the following areas: Small teeth Front teeth Premolars Teeth located in a narrow area They

Implant-Supported Dentures ( Overdenture ) For patients missing most or all teeth in either their upper or lower arch, implant-supported dentures provide a solid replacement option. Traditional dentures sit on an acrylic base and contain false teeth that look natural. An adhesive is used to keep the denture in place on the gums. But with implant-supported dentures, there is no need for an adhesive. Rather, the denture fits snugly onto strategically placed implants. This attachment method is stronger than using

ALL on 4 / All on 5 / All on 6 To understand what a All-On-4 dental implant is, you first need to know what an implant is. A dental implant is basically a small (usually titanium) screw that’s inserted into your jawbone in the space left by a missing tooth. Once the implant is placed in your mouth, your dentist will attach a fake tooth to the screw. Now, multiply this idea by four and you get an All-On-4

Senior dentistry Dental implant What will happen to the bone after losing teeth? After losing teeth, there will be vertically and horizontally resorption of socket bones. The resorption is more pronounced on the buccal side (cheek side) than on the lingual side (palate and tongue side) and more pronounced at the anterior region than at the posterior ones due to thinner bone wall. Excess bone resorption of the buccal plate will affect patient’s lip profile in the anterior region. Inadequate

Full mouth rehabilitation The process of rebuilding or simultaneously restoring all of the teeth in both the upper and lower jaws.It is also called full mouth reconstruction and full jaw restoration. Full jaw  reconstruction typically majorly involved in prosthodontics dentistry  (performing procedures like crowns, bridges and veneers), and can incorporate with periodontics  (gum disease treatment), and endodontics (root canal treatments). Teeth or oral condition that required full mouth rehabilitation Teeth that have become severely worn as a result of long-term

Dentures A denture is a removable replacement for missing teeth and surrounding tissues. Two types of dentures are available — complete and partial dentures. Complete dentures are used when all the teeth are missing, while partial dentures are used when some natural teeth remain. Complete Dentures Complete dentures can be either “conventional” or “immediate.” Made after the teeth have been removed and the gum tissue has begun to heal, a conventional denture is ready for placement in the mouth about

Dental Implant Dentistry Dental implant is the surgical component placed inside the jaw bone to support dental prosthesis. It is made of Titanium, which is a biocompatible metal allowed bone cells to adhere to its surface to form Osseo integration (bond between bone cell and dental implant surface). What will happen to the bone? After losing teeth, there will be vertically and horizontally resorption of socket bones. The resorption is more pronounced on the buccal side (cheek side) than on
