Implantology in modern dental medicine

"Today, treatment and prosthetics are high-tech processes that allow you to restore an even and white row of teeth even after complex diseases. All this has become possible thanks to the development of implantology. Specialists use technology and equipment in their work that makes dentistry not so scary and painful for the patient and comfortable for the doctor. Such radical changes affected not only dentistry, but also such areas as prosthetics. To replace heavy and bulky bridges and removable dentures implants came. Modern implantology includes a large number of prosthetics methods. Today, the use of prostheses and implants has become a routine thanks to materials and techniques. Removable and non-removable prostheses became lighter than their predecessors, and implants made it possible to forget about forever falling out and uncomfortable dentures. Dental services gave patients the comfort and the ability to smile.

How do they do the procedure of implantation ?

A dental implant is a multi-part structure. The basis of the entire design is a titanium screw, which is implanted in the jaw bone. This operation is performed by a doctor under anesthesia. A titanium screw is implanted in the bone tissue of the jaw. Titanium is compatible with human tissues, and implants based on it are well established.
Over time, the screw binds to the bone tissue and is already a solid foundation for the crown. An abutment is put on the screw. This part serves as a mount for the prosthesis itself. Such designs have proven themselves, many patients choose implantation instead of removable dentures and bridges.

Advantages of Implants

"Modern technology has allowed us to create implants that are suitable for everyone with rare exceptions. Exceptions may be people suffering from intolerance to certain materials and substances used by doctors to restore the integrity of the dentition. If the patient has no contraindications, the body functions normally, the bone tissue is quite dense, and the oral cavity is healthy, then the doctor will proceed with the installation of implants.
After surgery, the patient quickly gets used to the prosthesis. Due to the fact that the implants transmit well the effort from chewing food on bone and muscle tissue, bone tissues and gum muscles do not atrophy and remain in good shape. In addition, crowns on titanium implants fit perfectly into the dentition and do not stand out, that is, the naturalness that was before the extraction or injury of the teeth is preserved. After installing the entire structure, you need to take care of the oral cavity: cleaning twice a day, visiting the dentist once every six months.
Thanks to this approach, the implants will last a long time and allow you to smile happily!

The secret to a bright smile is braces!

Smooth and white teeth, a broad smile and self-confidence - this is a several months long work. Unfortunately, few can boast of even and white rows of teeth from birth, so modern dentistry has developed a number of techniques and technologies that allow you to align your teeth. Bracket systems are used in this process.

The secret to a bright smile is braces!

What are braces?

What are braces?

"For many patients in dental clinics, these systems are associated with scary and massive metal structures on the front teeth. They were the same a couple of decades ago, now everything has changed. Today, braces are compact and barely visible clasps that are neatly glued to the front or back of the teeth and connected between an orthodontic arch. In addition, the system is made not only of metal, but also of transparent plastic, which is invisible on the teeth.

The main purpose of installing bracket systems is to correct the bite and align the dentition with maximum efficiency. In a few months, they change the position of the teeth and the abnormalities resulting from the eruption of permanent teeth.

Types of Braces

"In modern dentistry, lingual and vestibular bracket systems are used. Vestibulars are attached to the front surface of the teeth. Lingual - from the inside. In addition, braces are made from various materials: metal, ceramics, sapphire and plastic. Dentists use lithographic systems and lithium-free ones in their practice.

When choosing systems, you need to focus not only on the financial aspect, but also on the effectiveness of each type of braces, on their ability to correct one or another anomaly and deformation.

Therefore, in the matter of choosing a system, you need to listen to the opinion of the orthodontist.

How are braces installed?

"First of all, it’s worth saying that the braces system consists of several components: braces, rings with locks, an orthodontic arch, elastic traction and lithauts. All these components are installed at the very beginning of the alignment of the dentition and removed at the end of the process.

A bracket is glued to each tooth using a special adhesive. An orthodontic arch is attached to the braces and tied to the lithagurs. On back and lateral teeth rings with locks are installed. All this construction works on straightening the teeth on the lower and upper jaws, braces are rarely installed on one of the jaws.

The exception is cases when it is necessary to combine braces from different types: aesthetic systems made of translucent plastic are installed on the upper, and ordinary ones on the lower. Thus, the bracket system is the best way to create an even and beautiful smile for the rest of your life.

What determines the period of wearing braces?

"According to experts, the time it takes to fix all defects depends on several factors:

● The complexity of the defect - the doctor may suggest installing braces for those who have little noticeable defects and those whose anomalies are really complex. Therefore, in this case, the period of wearing the system ranges from several months to several years;

● The degree of crowding of the teeth - with such an anomaly, the doctor may advise you to remove one or more teeth so that the braces align the dentition;

● Age and surgical procedures in the oral cavity;

● Type of orthodontic system to correct an anomaly. Thus, several factors affect the life of the system, which can and should be corrected with the help of an orthodontist.

What determines the period of wearing braces?

Duration of wearing braces in children and adolescents

Duration of wearing braces in children and adolescents

"You can install the orthodontic system from 11-13 years old, but it is also worth considering that the child should have second molars. Without observing these important conditions, the operation of the system will be reduced to zero. If braces are installed before this age, then the teeth may not support the weight of the structure. If there are no second molars, then the work of the construction will be reduced to zero after their appearance and development in the jaw.

As a rule, braces in children have an effect in a shorter period of time than in adults, so you need to see a doctor for help at 11-12 years old, so that by the age of 13-15 the smile sparkled with cleanliness and even rows of teeth. It will take from 1 to 2.5 years to correct the most complex defects at such a young age.

Duration of wearing braces in adults

"You can correct your bite and align your teeth at any age. There are no age restrictions in this process, there are only increased periods of wearing systems. In adulthood, obstruction of the oral cavity can serve as an obstacle to wearing braces. On average, the wearing time of orthodontic systems is increased by 6-8 months.

However, their life will depend on the complexity of the defects. At the same time, doctors also take into account the processes occurring in the human body after 30 years of age. As a result, doctors first correct the pathology of the bite, and then change the size of the dentition and the position of the teeth in the row. To do this, you have to remove 1 or more teeth.

For the remaining teeth, a place is freed where they are moved using the orthodontic system. Not only the age and complexity of the defect can affect the duration of treatment, but also the right design. Often the period is extended if adults choose a sapphire or plastic system for 5-7 months. Thus, you can align your teeth and correct the bite at any age.

It takes 1 to 3 years. After this period, we must not forget about the retention period, which helps to consolidate the new position of the teeth. If each patient follows the doctor's recommendations, the result will please the rest of his life.

Modern treatment of tooth canals in the dental Clinic "SA-NATA"

Modern treatment of tooth canals in the dental Clinic

"Therapeutic dentistry aims to preserve the human teeth. Therefore, all treatment procedures are aimed at achieving this goal. Of course, the best treatment is prevention, but in many cases, the process of tooth decay remains hidden from the eyes and nerve receptors of the patient of the dental clinic.

When destruction or inflammation reaches the underlying tissues of the tooth, pain begins. And only after that the person goes to the doctor. In most cases, these symptoms indicate an inflammatory process of the pulp tissue (sensitive layer of the tooth).

If such a diagnosis is made, then it is necessary to remove the entire dead part of the tooth and fill it. In other words, the doctor will clean the canals of the tissues affected by caries. If the pain is felt, and the cavity is small, then the doctor should clean it of the affected tissues and make sure that the nerves are healthy and not inflamed.

Canal treatment

"As soon as there is pain or the tooth begins to respond to cold and hot dishes, you need to immediately visit the dentist. Dental canal treatment in modern dentistry is performed under local anesthesia.

Diagnosis of pulpitis and verification of the results of the doctor's work on filling the tooth canals is carried out using radiological equipment. To date, dentists have learned to preserve such teeth for several years of faithful service to their owner. Therefore, treatment of dental canals helps to save the tooth from the final destruction and removal.

Canal treatment

Pulpitis

"Pulpitis is diagnosed if the inflammatory process has affected the sensitive part of the tooth, pulp. In the canals of the tooth, surrounding tissues and nerves become inflamed, which leads to pain. The cause of the inflammatory process is caries, which has not been cured before, or the repeated inflammation that occurs after treatment.

Pulpitis is characterized by pain. It can be constant, or it can appear after mechanical or temperature exposure. The treatment of this process consists in the removal of inflamed and affected tooth tissues from the canals and their filling. Another reason for removing nerves is periodontitis. It is an inflammatory process that affects the upper part of the roots of the tooth. Periodontitis is manifested by sharp pain that occurs without any reason. It is necessary to clean the tooth canals and, if necessary, prosthetics.

A crown or other methods of restoring a damaged tooth require the removal of pulp tissues and their thorough filling. Unfortunately, modern dentistry is not in all cases capable of preserving the native tooth. With severe periodontal damage, with severe destruction or vertical fracture, canal treatment is not advisable.

A typical treatment regimen involves cleaning the canals, expanding and forming the dental canals, and then filling. After removing the inflamed tissue, the canals are filled with medicine, and then the doctor will fill them.

After that, the dentist carries out tooth restoration with the help of modern filling materials. If you have a toothache or suspicion of a problem with a tooth, immediately contact our professional specialists! We will help you as soon as possible.
