We would love to help you find a lifelike solution to your missing teeth, which is why we can use dental implants to support fixed dentures, partials, and bridges. But will we need to remove teeth first, and what should you expect from an extraction? Your Santa Rosa, CA, oral surgeons talk about this process in our latest blog.
Sedation For Dental Implant Placement
Dental implants require oral surgery for placement, and can offer long-lasting replacement for one or multiple missing teeth, and even support dentures! Since this involves surgery, we will offer more than just local anesthesia. In today’s blog, your Santa Rosa, CA, oral surgeons talk about dental sedation.
The Tech We Use To Place Dental Implants
When we see a patient with a missing tooth, or several, then we want to return function and beauty to your smile by replacing your lost teeth. We use dental implants, and to plan and oversee the process with precision and accuracy, we use advanced technology. In today’s blog, your Santa Rosa, CA, oral surgeons talk about the tech we use to place dental implants.
TreFoil™ Offers Full Arch Restoration
When you suffer from advanced tooth loss, and your jaw is too weakened to support traditional dental implant dentures, then you may benefit from TreFoil™. This supports a complete set of dentures with only three dental implant posts. In today’s blog, your Santa Rosa, CA, oral surgeons talk about TreFoil™.
A Full Smile With Ridge Preservation
When you lose a significant number of your teeth, this could not only mean gaps, but the changes to your jaw ridge could mean an older appearance and difficulty eating and speaking. To replace missing teeth and also preserve your ridge, your Santa Rosa, CA, oral and maxillofacial surgeons may recommend All-On-Four implant dentures.
Full Dentures That Last And Never Slip
Removable dentures are an effective way to address tooth loss, but they have downsides. They can slip, they don’t address the loss of mass and density in your smile, and they need replacement every five years or so. But with dental implants, your Santa Rosa, CA, oral surgeons can offer secure dentures that never slip, and could provide decades of replacement!
Could Partial Dentures Be Supported With Implants?
When a bridge or an individual dental implant isn’t enough to address your missing teeth, but you still have enough teeth that a full denture is overkill, then you may need a partial. In addition to removable options, our team can actually support them with dental implants. In today’s blog, your Santa Rosa, CA, oral surgeons talk about implant partial dentures.
Bridges Last Longer With Dental Implants
Dental bridges are an excellent way to address one missing tooth, or up to three or four in a row. While traditional options can offer 10 to 15 years of tooth replacement, securing them with dental implants could allow them to last decades! In today’s blog, your Santa Rosa, CA, oral surgeons discuss our dental implant bridges.
A Dental Implant And Crown Could Replace Your Lost Tooth
When you even have one missing tooth, this could cause trouble with your smile. But we have an option to fill the gap and offer a complete smile again! In today’s blog, your Santa Rosa, CA, oral and maxillofacial surgeons talk about our custom-made dental implant and crown!
Extractions Can Improve Your Health
Sometimes, despite your best efforts to brush, floss, and take care of your teeth, you need to have an extraction. While no one ever wants this to happen, it is sometimes genuinely the best option for your health. Whether it is because of decay, external trauma, or the need for a wisdom tooth to be pulled, your dentist or oral surgeon will fully outline their reasoning for recommending the procedure. Once you have a tooth or several, removed, there are plenty of implant and prosthetic options that will help you fill the space. In today’s blog, your Santa Rosa, CA, oral surgeons discuss the importance of extractions and your replacement options. (more…)
