A dental implant is an artificial tooth root placed into your jaw to hold a replacement tooth or bridge. Unlike dentures, implants do not come loose and are not removable. This treatment may be an option for those who have missing teeth.

There are two types of dental implants: endosteal and subperiosteal. Endosteal implants are directly implanted into the jawbone; subperiosteal implants, on the other hand, are placed through a metal framework post placed on the gums. People who have minimal bone height most commonly use this type of implant. Whatever type of dental implants you may need, we at Forever Smiles Turlock will be glad to help you.

  • The next step is the extraction of the damaged tooth (if any). If it has already been removed, the dentist will proceed with the next step. If some teeth still need to be extracted, the entire procedure will take more time because we will have to wait until the extraction sites have healed before proceeding to the next stage.
  • To be able to put the implant, you will be placed under local or general anesthesia. Once you are fully relaxed, and the site is numb, the dentist will make an incision to open your gums. He will put a titanium post in the bone socket of your missing tooth. As the jawbone heals, it will grow over the implanted titanium post and will undergo a process called osseointegration. Typically, the process takes about eight to twelve weeks, but it varies from patient to patient.
  • On your next visit, your dentist will attach an abutment to your implant. This is to hold the implant securely to the new tooth. In the meantime, your dental crown/s will be made in the laboratory using an impression taken from your mouth.
  • A healthy, functional and attractive smile requires teeth that are straight and jaws that are well aligned. The goal of orthodontic treatment is to correct the cosmetic and functional problems associated with teeth that are either overcrowded, have spaces between them, or that have shifted over time due to extractions, habits, or abnormal bite patterns. Orthodontics can also address skeletal discrepancies between the upper and lower jaws.

    Orthodontic treatment can range from the minor movement of a few teeth to the alignment of an entire bite. It may also be used in some cases to align teeth both before and after the surgical correction of severe jaw discrepancies.

    Orthodontics utilizes the principles of physics to slowly move teeth into their proper positions. This is performed by using a selection of corrective appliances, including braces, clear aligners, and retainers. Designed to apply incremental and controlled forces to move the teeth in the desired direction, these appliances are adjusted on a regular basis throughout the course of care. Once a malocclusion is corrected and the teeth are completely aligned, retainers are often placed to help ensure that the result remains stable.

    Orthodontic treatment time depends on the patients age, the severity of the malocclusion and the unique needs of each particular case. Some corrections can be accomplished in a few months while others can take a few years. However, for many malocclusions the average length of orthodontic treatment time is 24 months.

    Sometimes it is necessary to extract a tooth. This can happen for a variety of reasons. Extractions are commonly performed in cases where a deciduous baby tooth is reluctant to fall out, a severely broken down and non-restorable tooth is present, or wisdom tooth is poorly positioned and unable to fully erupt into place.

    To reduce any anxiety and insure patient comfort whenever a tooth extraction is necessary, the procedure, the post surgical instructions, as well as any restorative follow-up care will be carefully and completely explained.

    There are two types of dentures: partial and full. Partial dentures are used when there are still natural teeth, while full dentures are used when all teeth are missing or need to be replaced. Full dentures are can either be conventional or immediate. Conventional dentures are placed after the gum tissues have completely healed after teeth extraction. Immediate dentures, on the other hand, are placed immediately after the remaining teeth are removed. Whatever type of denture you may need, we at Forever Smiles Turlock can surely help bring back your smile.

  • During your first visit, your dentist will get an impression of your mouth. Using dental putty, your dentist will make a mold or model of your mouth and teeth so that they can have your dentures created specifically to suit your mouth.
  • Your dental impressions are then sent to a laboratory where the actual dentures are made. You will then be given a schedule for your second visit. Generally, it would take a week for your dentures to be ready.
  • On your second visit, your dentist will fit your dentures. During this time, the dentist will check the fit and color of your dentures to make sure it matches with the rest of your natural teeth. You may feel some minor discomfort at the start but will subside after a few days.
  • Do you have missing teeth? Consider dentures as an option. It not only helps you speak and eat properly, but it also boosts your self-esteem. Please do not hesitate to call us at(209) 500-1234. Our office is located at 1850 Colorado, Ave., Turlock, CA 95382.

    I had my initial intake and it was aming the best experiences one could have at a dentist. The waiting area was nice, staff greeted me, and I didn't have to wait long. X-ray Tech was very friendly and knowledgeable, and Dr. Kaur answered all my questions to my satisfaction. I am pleased with the treatment plan we discussed and will try to remember to give updates. Oh, and the billing lady was also nice and knowledgeable. All in all a thorough and good experience, I would recommend and will definitely return.
