Unlike typical dentures, there is no risk of bone or tissue loss when you choose a titanium implant. In fact, your bone will grow around the implant, creating an even stronger bond over time.
Tooth loss not only affects your overall health, but can negatively affect your self-esteem and appearance. Neighbouring teeth often attempt to fill in the spaces of missing teeth, complicating the issue of having too much space between teeth — this can affect both your bite and smile. After a tooth has been extracted, the bone material can erode, causing additional structural and cosmetic deterioration. Implant-supported dentures use a titanium root device that mimics the feel and function of a natural tooth’s root. As such, implant-supported dentures do not have the wiggle and “clacking” effect of typical full dentures. The titanium root of implant-supported dentures eventually grafts to your jawbone and actually promotes new bone growth. Therefore, implant-supported dentures also address the issue of bone loss that is commonly associated with long-term denture use.Replacing your teeth with implant-supported dentures can greatly increase your comfort, smile, and confidence. Recently, a new advance in implants has allowed the denture to be supported using the “all on four” technique, where the denture can be placed at the point of each arch support. This allows the implants and temporary crowns to be placed on the same day as the extraction.
Implant-supported crowns and bridges are available at Dentistry on Wilson. They offer better support, stability and security for the crown or bridge, they preserve bone structure and they can go indistinguishable from the rest of your teeth. These options can be discussed with your North York dentist to find out what’s the best fit for your case..
Usually it's because a tooth is suffering from deep decay, or maybe you've had a series of dental procedures, a crack has developed or some trauma has occurred which has caused your tooth's inner pulp to become badly infected or inflamed.
Normally a root canal will take an hour or two for a single tooth, which might need one or two visits depending on just how complicated things are.
Essentially a dentist who has chosen to specialise in the very tricky business of working inside the tooth and doing root canal treatments and other procedures.
Most people are pretty much back to normal the day after, you might feel a bit of aching for a few days, but that can usually be sorted with a bit of over the counter pain relief.
Yes, often you will. The thing is after a root canal, your tooth is basically brittle, and a crown is usually necessary to keep it from cracking apart and to make sure it can still do its job.
With a bit of proper care and the right restoration (like a crown) a tooth that's had a root canal can easily last all your life.
