Are you missing one or more teeth? Perhaps youre serious about moving forward with Pembroke Pines dental implants for tooth replacement. If you want to ensure an informed decision, youll want to have all of the facts before committing.
Since dental implant placement involves a surgical procedure, some patients assume that theyll be in pain during treatment. However, dentists offer several pain management options, including nitrous oxide sedation for dental implant surgery to ensure your comfort.
Traditional dental bridges can only last for ten years because the adjacent teeth that support them have a weakened structure. Likewise, removable partial dentures dont fare any better because they only last for up to five years due to their need for adjustments.
Alternatively, dental implants are designed to last a lifetime. Since studies show that the success rate for implants doesnt decrease over time, you can be sure that this tooth replacement option will provide you with a long-lasting solution.
After the dentist inserts the implant into your jawbone, the bone goes through the process of osseointegration, in which it grows together with the implant to create a long-lasting foundation for your artificial tooth. On rare occasions where this process doesnt occur, dentists remove the implant and try to place it again after three months.
Since it can take months before patients with a chipped tooth start feeling pain, most of them cant recall when their tooth was chipped. While each case is different, most of them can be traced to poor oral hygiene. Those who dont brush their teeth regularly can develop tooth decay that can cause one or more teeth to chip when they bite down hard on certain foods.
A chipped tooth can also result from other circumstances, such as an old filling that fails and drops out. Additionally, using your teeth as a tool or a severe trauma to the face can also lead to a chipped tooth.
If its not possible for you to see a cosmetic dentist right away, you can take some steps to safeguard yourself in the meantime. Taking over-the-counter pain relievers can help you deal with the pain. Moreover, avoiding hard, crunchy, and foods and placing paraffin wax or gum over the edges of your chipped tooth can help you avoid aggravating the damage as you wait to see your dentist.
Although several treatment options exist for addressing a chipped front tooth, most dentists recommend using dental veneers to make your smile look healthy and whole again. Veneers are wafer-thin shells of tooth-colored porcelain or composite material, which cover the front of your teeth.
Moreover, your dentist prepares the tooth in question by removing a tiny portion of the enamel from the tooths surface before taking impressions to send to the dental laboratory. Once the veneer is ready, your dentist will etch and roughen the tooths surface and use a special cement and a special light to set the veneer in place.

She is the BEST Dentist I've ever been to. I've had bad experiences in the past which caused me neglect my teeth. I had the pleasure to be treated by Dr. Rios recently which will encourage me to visit Dr Rios on a regular basis. She is completely painless and a delightful Human Being. She changed my life.

I got to Dr. Milagritos because my partner recommended it to me. I made the appointment because I had a nuisance in a front tooth. When I got to my appointment, the staff was very attentive and diligent. The registration as a new patient was very quick. I was immediately attended to Dr. Rios. She was very delicate in her treatment and had a lot of patience to do the exams and the X-rays. Then she explain the problem in great detail and give me different alternatives I had for treatment. Thanks for taking care of me. In short, it has been a great experience and I am very grateful to her and my partner for your recommendation.
