Other Procedures Related to Dental Implants
If you have one missing tooth or several, we offer solutions to bring back your smile and increase your self-assurance. Our clinic is dedicated to providing you with the best oral health care, and that includes offering various services related to dental implants.
In addition to the traditional dental implant procedure, our clinic also offers other procedures that can help improve your overall smile.
Dental Bridges
A dental bridge is a great alternative ffor multiple missing teeth in a row. This dental procedure involves placing two or more crowns on either side of a space, with a false tooth (or teeth) in between. The crowns act as anchors for the bridge, providing stability and support.
In our clinic, we use top-notch materials to craft dental bridges that appear and feel completely natural. Our dental team works closely with our patients to create a bridge tailored to your specific requirements and preferences.
By taking good care of your dental bridge, it can endure for numerous years, offering a lasting solution to replace missing teeth.
Bone Grafting
Sometimes, patients may not have sufficient jawbone to support a dental implant. This can be due to various reasons such as gum disease, tooth loss, or natural anatomy. In such situations, we may recommend bone grafting.
Bone grafting is a process that involves taking bone from another part of your body, like your hip, or using synthetic materials to create a strong and stable foundation for a dental implant. This procedure helps to increase the success rate of dental implants, as it provides a solid foundation for the implant to fuse with.
Sinus Lift
Another procedure that may be recommended for patients who lack sufficient bone in their upper jaw is a sinus lift. This involves lifting the sinus membrane and filling the space with bone grafting material to create enough room for dental implants.
A sinus lift not only helps to support dental implants, but it also improves the appearance of your smile by filling out any sunken areas in the cheeks. Our experienced team at Dr. Jaline Boccuzzi dental clinic will carefully assess your needs and determine if a sinus lift is necessary for your case.
Gum Disease Treatment
If left untreated, gum disease can result in losing teeth. That’s why it’s crucial to take action at the first signs of gum disease. At Dr. Jaline Boccuzzi, we offer various treatments to help combat gum disease and save your natural teeth.
One way to treat gum disease is through a procedure called scaling and root planing. It works by removing plaque and tartar from your teeth’s surface and smoothing the roots, preventing bacteria from building up again.
If the case is severe, the dentist may perform a surgery to remove infected tissue and help with healing.
Root Canal
To save a severely infected or decayed tooth, a root canal might be performed. Our experienced team will remove the damaged or infected pulp inside the tooth and thoroughly clean and sanitize the area before filling it with a special substance.
A root canal not only saves your natural tooth, but it also prevents further infection from spreading and causing additional complications. Our clinic uses modern techniques and advanced technology to make sure the procedure is as comfortable and efficient as possible.
Dentures
For patients missing multiple teeth, dentures can provide a solution that restores both function and aesthetics. Our clinic offers both full and partial dentures, depending on the individual needs of our patients.
We use full dentures when all the teeth are missing in both the upper or lower jaw. If some natural teeth remain, we use partial dentures instead. Our team closely collaborates with patients to guarantee a comfortable and natural-looking fit for their dentures.
Flippers
Flippers are a temporary solution for missing teeth and are often used during the process of getting dental implants. They are made up of a plastic base that fits onto your gums and is attached to one or more artificial teeth.
Flippers can help improve the appearance of your smile while waiting for permanent tooth replacement options such as dental implants. You can effortlessly take them out and clean them separately from your real teeth.
