Dental Implants
Dental implants are a popular and effective solution for replacing missing teeth. The process involves placing a replacement tooth root, usually made of titanium, directly into the jawbone. This provides a strong foundation for temporary or permanent tooth options.
One of the main benefits of dental implants is their ability to restore functionality. Unlike dentures, which can slip or move during eating or speaking, implants are securely anchored in the jawbone, allowing for natural chewing and speaking abilities.
This can greatly enhance a person’s ability to enjoy their favorite foods and communicate confidently.
Dental implants also offer aesthetic benefits. They are designed to look and feel like natural teeth, restoring a person’s smile and boosting their confidence. With permanent implant options, there is no need to worry about removing and cleaning dentures, as they become a permanent part of the mouth.
There are different types of dental implant options available, depending on the individual’s needs. Single-tooth implants are used to replace one missing tooth, while implant-supported bridges or dentures can be used to replace multiple missing teeth. The type of implant chosen will depend on the specific situation and desired outcome.
As per studies, the success rate of dental implants is over 90% for over 10 years.
They not only restore functionality but also enhance the appearance of a person’s smile. Whether you need to replace one tooth or multiple teeth, dental implants offer a variety of options to suit your needs.
Pinhole Gum Grafting
Pinhole Gum Grafting is an innovative dental treatment designed to address gum recession. This procedure involves making small incisions in the gum tissue and gently repositioning it to cover exposed roots.
By restoring gum tissue and preventing further recession, Pinhole Gum Grafting offers several benefits. Firstly, it can improve the appearance of your smile by restoring the natural contour of your gums. Besides, it can reduce tooth sensitivity caused by exposed roots, making eating and drinking more comfortable.
One of the key advantages of Pinhole Gum Grafting is that it is a minimally invasive procedure. Unlike traditional gum grafting, there is no need for extensive suturing or grafting from another part of your mouth. This means less discomfort and a quicker recovery time.
At Colorado Gum Care, our dental professionals are highly skilled in performing Pinhole Gum Grafting. They utilize state-of-the-art techniques and dental technology to ensure optimal results and patient satisfaction.
If you are experiencing gum recession and want to restore the health and appearance of your gum tissue, consider Pinhole Gum Grafting as a treatment option.
Gum Disease
Gingivitis is the medical term for early gum disease, or periodontal disease. In general, gum disease can be caused by long-term exposure to plaque, the sticky but colorless film on teeth that forms after eating or sleeping.
Gum disease originates in the gums, where infections form from harmful bacteria and other materials left behind from eating. Early warning signs include chronic bad breath, tender or painful swollen gums and minor bleeding after brushing or flossing. In many cases, however, gingivitis can go unnoticed. The infections can eventually cause the gums to separate from the teeth, creating even greater opportunities for infection and decay.
Although gum disease is the major cause of tooth loss in adults, in many cases it is avoidable.If gingivitis goes untreated, more serious problems such as abscesses, bone loss or periodontitis can occur.
Periodontitis is treated in a number of ways. One method, called root planing, involved cleaning and scraping below the gum line to smooth the roots. If effective, this procedure helps the gums reattach themselves to the tooth structure. However, not all instances of scaling and root planing successfully reattach the tooth to the gums. Additional measures may be needed if the periodontal pockets persist after scaling and root planing
Pregnancy has also been known to cause a form of gingivitis. This has been linked to hormonal changes in the woman’s body that promote plaque production.
