Dental Implants

The process of placing a dental implant into your mouth involves a few steps and can take up to six months for a completely new tooth to be built and fixed into your mouth. The dental implant itself is a screw that is made of a combination of titanium and other materials. This implant screw is anchored into your jawbone in the position where the new tooth will eventually be placed. This implant will serve as a support for the replacement tooth to be placed on top. The implant is then given some time to fuse with the jawbone through a process known as osseointegration. Once the implant has fused with the bone, a replacement tooth is attached to a small metal post that protrudes from the implant. Even though the process of implantation and placement of a new tooth may take a while, the results are definitely worth the wait.

Wisdom Teeth Removal

Wisdom teeth are the last permanent teeth to appear. They usually appear between the ages of 16-25 and can often ruin the entire spacing and aesthetic appearance of the crown. The growth of a wisdom tooth can also cause pain and discomfort as well as causing future gum and tooth issues in the mouth. Originally, the wisdom tooth was designed to help grind and crush food in the earlier days but with cooking technologies we have evolved beyond needing them.
