Types Of General Dentistry To Restore The Aesthetics

General dentistry includes a variety of treatments like tooth restoration and other dental treatments by our general dentist Dr. Steven Nadel to enhance the aesthetics of your smile and facial looks. If you have lost your precious pearly white natural tooth, then it has to be restored with any of the restorative techniques to keep the gap occupied. If not, then the adjacent teeth start moving towards the vacant place creating the gaps between the teeth which makes a room for the food that you eat will get settle down over there. To avoid all these complications, it is better to get it fixed with one of the below techniques:

Dental Crowns

Dental crowns are caps that are fabricated to look similar to natural teeth. A crown is used when a tooth is severely decayed, physically weak or has a large filling. The crown can be fixed over a prepared tooth using dental cement. It aids biting and chewing functions and acts as a shield to protect the natural tooth. There are a number of different types of dental crowns available depending on the tooth that is being restored.

Dental implants

Dental implants are replacements to lost tooth roots. These artificial restorations are surgically placed in the supporting bone and left to heal for few months. They are one of the most widely recommended options to replace lost teeth. Dental implants can support individual crowns, bridges, and dentures as well. Our implant dentist Dr. Nadel is one of the most renowned in and around the area of Boynton Beach, FL for his remarkable work in the field of implant surgery.

Dentures

Dentures are designed to replace all teeth in a row. They can be supported by gums or by dental implants. They are available in both fixed and removable options. They support biting and chewing functions wonderfully in those patients who have lost all or most of their teeth.

Tooth extraction

A tooth is extracted when we find out that it cannot be protected and it is better to take the tooth out for the good of oral health. Extraction is done with the help of local anesthesia. The socket is filled with bone graft material and our general dentist may recommend a suitable tooth restoration after the healing of the extraction site.

Periodontal Care

Gum care is an integral part of general dental care. We check the status of soft gum tissues using the periodontal probe and other instruments. If we find that the soft tissues are infected, we take necessary steps to cure the same. Tarter is removed from the gum pockets and an anti-bacterial agent is used to kill bacteria. Follow up visits may be recommended to keep the infection under check.
