Osteoporosis and Oral health

Osteoporosis is a bone disease that makes the bones of our body weak and brittle. Severe cases of osteoporosis can cause bone fracture even with mild stress such as bending over or coughing. Osteoporosis is treated by prescribing medications that help in strengthening the bone.  Certain medications for osteoporosis can influence oral health and dental treatment decisions. Some medications used for osteoporosis can lead to a rare but serious condition known as osteonecrosis which causes serious damage to the jawbone. Osteonecrosis can occur spontaneously after a dental procedure that is associated with the bone and its tissues. So it is important to inform your dentist about the medications that you take before undergoing any dental procedure.  Visit Expert Dental Care for the best Dental Implants in Chennai .  Call us at 99415-11444 to book an appointment with Dr Sravanthi who has done many dental implants in Porur and receive the best Basal Implants in Chenna...

Does dental implants affect MRI?

MRI or Magnetic Resonance Imaging is a diagnostic method that utilizes powerful magnets, radio waves, and a computer to generate clear detailed pictures of the internal body. Since MRI scan makes use of powerful magnets, all ferromagnetic metal objects are asked to be removed from the imaging area. Objects including pacemaker implants, cochlear implants, jewelry such as earring, necklaces, piercings, and even metal nail polishes are not allowed during the scan. But does Dental implants interfere with an MRI?  Not at all. Nowadays Dental implants are made with titanium alloy or zirconia materials. These materials are completely safe to enter into an MRI scanning area. However, it is always advisable to inform the doctor about your Implants before commencing the MRI test as a precautionary measure.

Can Composite filling be done for the Front Teeth

Yes, composite tooth filling is not a procedure just for your premolars or molars. Even front teeth can have composite teeth filling done. Composite resins or tooth-colored fillings can be used if the break suffered by the front teeth is small or mid-size which your dentist will ascertain. The filling done so is then proceeded with teeth bonding procedures. Generally, the color of the filling should match with the color of the tooth. People always prefer that the color of the front teeth matches for cosmetic reasons.  Call us at 99415-11444 to book an appointment with Dr Sravanthi who has done many dental implants in porur and receive the best All-on-4 dental implants in Chennai .  Visit us at https://www.expertdental.in/   Email us at expertdentalcare@gmail.com

How often should you visit a dentist?

“Prevention is better than cure” is an adage that holds true even for the health of our teeth. Actually, there is no set number of visits to the dentist that a person has to adhere to. This is because different people have different dental needs and treatments. If the individual has healthy teeth and gums, they should visit the dentist at least twice a year on an average. High-risk individuals like smokers, pregnant women, diabetic patients, people with active gum disease, people with low immunity, people who have a higher risk to get cavities or plaque build-up should visit the dentist once in 3-4 months. The dentists themselves would let you know about the risk you run and the frequency suited for you. Low-risk individuals should still visit the dentist at least once a year.

Is there an age limit to get Dental Implants?

Dental Implants are an excellent consideration if you have lost one or more teeth. Dental Implants are the next best option to natural teeth. Despite all its advantages, dental implants cannot be fixed for people of any age. So is there an age limit for getting dental implants? There is no upper limit to receive dental implants but there is a lower limit. Children and teenagers are not good candidates for dental implants. This is because it is always important that a candidate for dental implants should have a fully developed jaw. That is why dental implants are opted for once the individual reaches adulthood where the jaw is fully developed.

Dental Implants in Chennai

Our Teeth is an integral part of our body. It aids in chewing and breaking down the food we eat into small particles. But many people do not practice preventive dental care and lose their teeth as a result. Usually when tooth loss occurs the jaw bone beneath the lost tooth recedes over time. This receding bone is known as jaw bone loss. The eventual jaw bone loss can lead to sagging of the facial tissues. Dental Implants prevents the eventual bone loss and sagging of the facial tissues. Dental Implants can also improve your smile by replacing the vertical height that went away due to tooth loss. So yes, dental implants not only improve smile but they also lift the face.

How long does it take for the hole to close after a tooth extraction?

Wisdom teeth are extracted to solve an existing problem or to prevent an impending problem. Wisdom teeth are extracted for reasons like, if they are impacted, infection, if they develop into cysts, or if they erupt in an improper angle. Sometimes not only wisdom teeth, but any teeth that have decayed beyond a point of salvage will be extracted by your dentist. The dentist takes this call only if the option of root canal treatment is ruled out.  After the tooth is removed, the extraction site is stitched if necessary. The stitches either will dissolve or will be removed manually after a few days. A visible reduction in the size of the extraction site can be seen within the first two weeks after the extraction.  After 3 to 4 weeks, almost all the soft tissues would have healed. After 4 months of the extraction, new bone material would have filled up the socket entirely.  Call us at 99415-11444 for getting the best  basal implants in Chennai  and book yo...

Dental Implant treatments are usually done for the loss of one or more teeth. The dental Implant procedure is done for both functionalities, arresting bone loss, and aesthetics.  But if you have dental implant s and you are experiencing bad breath, bleeding gums after brushing or a weird taste in your mouth, you might have infection surrounding the dental implants.

If left untreated, these infections can spread and can lead to dental Implant failure. That is why you should always make it a mandate to do a regular dental visit. Your dentist definitely can detect any infection lying surrounding the dental implants...

How smoking can affect Dental implants?

We all know that smoking is an utterly bad habit. The general idea we have about the impact of smoking on oral health is the discoloration it can cause to our teeth. Not just that! The tobacco in the cigarettes slows down the healing ability of your body and immunity. A compromised immune system makes your body susceptible to gum diseases and this might eventually lead to gum recession. So make sincere attempts to quit smoking. Smoking is strictly asked to be stopped 2 months prior to a dental implant procedure. And about 6-8 months after a dental implant procedure. Smoking can cause the failure of dental implants. Studies have shown that the osseointegration rate is way slower in people who smoke than in people who don't. The success of a dental implant depends upon the osseointegration of the implant. Poor osseointegration leads to implant failure. #Dentist #DrSravanthi #Cosmetic #ExpertDentalCare For More Information visit us at https://expertdental....

Can Dental Implants break?

A Dental Implant is a fixture with three components that are used as a replacement for the loss of one or more teeth.  The lower component consists of a titanium screw. This lower component fixes into the jaw bone. The middle component termed an “abutment” serves as a connector between the lower titanium screw and the upper component that holds such fixtures like crown, bridge, or dentures.  If you have got your dental implants, avoid biting on to hard food items like nuts, hard shells of seafood, carrots and hard vegetables, bones in the meat, etc. Some people have the habit of biting on to hard substances like pens and pencils. Such biting practices can weaken your dental implants. Following such precautionary methods certainly increases the life span of your dental implants.

Why do Dental Implants fail in Diabetic patients?
