Dental Implants Mesa AZ
Dental implants are designed to provide a foundation for replacement teeth that look , feel, and function like natural teeth. The person who has lost teeth regains the ability to eat virtually anything and can smile with confidence, knowing that their teeth appear natural and that the facial bone contours will be preserved. The implants themselves are small titanium posts that are placed into the jawbone where teeth are missing. The bone bonds with the titanium, creating a strong foundation for artificial teeth. In addition, dental implants can help preserve facial structure, preventing bone deterioration that occurs when teeth are missing.
Periodontal Disease & Treatment Mesa AZ
Periodontal diseases are infections of the gums, which gradually destroy the support of your natural teeth. Dental plaque is the primary cause of gum disease in genetically susceptible individuals. As periodontal disease progresses, the supporting gum tissue and bone that hold teeth in place deteriorate and if left untreated, can lead to tooth loss. Periodontal disease is similar to high blood pressure because it is frequently difficult for the patient to recognize there is a problem. There is often no pain, and there may not be any bleeding, redness or swelling. However, this disease damages the teeth, gum and jawbone of more than 80% of Americans by the age of 45.
Many times, the early stages of periodontal disease are best treated with non-surgical periodontal therapy. Even in severe cases, non surgical periodontal therapy often precedes surgical therapy. This is done to improve the overall quality prior to surgery and also to help limit the areas requiring surgery.
