Because periodontal disease is capable of causing so much harm to the tissues that support our teeth, an unmanaged infection is often the reason why people lose teeth as adults. As their support lessens, you can find that extractions need to take place. This significantly alters your appearance and dental function, and it can be a big blow to your confidence. Fortunately, there are effective solutions available to give you back your full smile. By pursuing implant dentistry, you can receive the kind of prosthetic support that lets you bite and chew without difficulty. You also enjoy stimulation in the jawbone that helps you by protecting against the deterioration of bone that can occur after tooth loss.
One problem with your plans for prosthetic work is that an active issue with gum disease will need to be treated. Through the use of laser technology to treat periodontal problems, we can provide a more conservative and comfortable means of dealing with this problem. The removal of bacteria and unhealthy tissues can lead to recovery that prepares you to move forward with care that restores your complete smile!
Implant dentistry can help you avoid the loss of bone density that can occur when you experience tooth loss. Unfortunately, when a person waits to have their smile fully restored, that deterioration can make the placement process difficult. After an evaluation to study your bone density and health, you may learn that you need to undergo jawbone grafting treatment. Lasers help us provide this service in a more precise and comfortable manner, which means you enjoy a better start to larger plans to restore your complete smile!
