Principle 1: In tooth supported edentulous spaces, location of the undercut determines the

Before the treatment starts, an imprint of a patient’s mouth is done and then scanned into a system used to form the Invisalign aligners. After the impression of an individual’s mouth is scanned, an orthodontist analyzes the mouth. The orthodontist then decides the movement of teeth needed to achieve the desired aesthetic results. When the orthodontist figures out the “path” of the teeth, he or she makes aligners to achieve the desired end result. Once the aligners are created, they are sent to the patient. The patient then can begin the treatment. After the explanation of Invisalign aligners, Joffe goes on to point out the negatives and positives Invisalign brings about. Some of the negatives include lack of control of the treatment and limited corrections available, while some of the positives include the desired appearance of an orthodontic treatment and the ability for a user to retain good oral care at ease. Invisalign is a unique system that has pros and

This technique is implemented with the support of a titanium or gold bar that anchors a set of acrylic teeth in the decayed place. The bar is a fixed and can only be detached by a dentist. With the help of this advanced denture technique, we offer you with full fixed teeth in a day even though you don’t have enough bones for this denture treatment.

Invisalign - This is dental grade plastic aligners that are used to gently push teeth into proper alignment. This treatment is best for minor

Your dentist will help you design a treatment plan based on the root cause of your teeth grinding problem and that will suit your specific needs and lifestyle. As part of this plan, you may need to wear an occlusal device, also known as a bite guard or bruxism appliance. Occlusal devices will help prevent your teeth from becoming fractured or worn down due to chronic teeth grinding. Your bite guard will be custom made to fit your mouth comfortably, and once you start wearing it, you will notice reduced jaw, tooth, and muscle pain in no time at all. When you want quick relief from teeth grinding discomfort, put your trust in these friendly experts.

A bridge is considered radical treatment as adjacent tooth structure must be drastically reduced in this process. The bridge has been regarded as the standard of care for some time in the replacement of single and multiple missing teeth. However, in order to obtain optimal functional and aesthetic results for full-veneer bridges, a significant reduction in the amount of tooth structure is necessary, occasionally predisposing to endodontic, periodontal, and structural complications. The abutment teeth often become carious and thus have an increased rate of those individuals needing a root canal procedure. If one of the abutment teeth are lost a longer span bridge would be required. The implant procedure is more conservative and has a better prognosis. Implants have a high rate of success, do not require procedures on adjacent teeth and are not susceptible to caries.

Orthodontic treatment consist of using methods that are designed to push the teeth into another position. This is accomplished with braces that move the teeth into another position. The traditional metal braces were the method used for years. Those braces were uncomfortable and unattractive. However, the new braces are much lighter and barely noticeable in the patient's mouth. Today, patient's are requesting clear aligners or the Damon self-litigating braces.

We offer implant-secured dentures that will eliminate some of the typical problems people have with dentures. To do this, we place a series of implants in your gums to create a foundation for your dentures. Your dentures are then secured onto the implants using either a bar mechanation or ball attachments, depending on your needs. To learn more about implant-secured dentures, visit our page about

Subsequent a symposium held at McGill University in 2002, a panel of experts prepared the following statement: (the evidence currently available suggests that the restoration of the edentulous mandible with a conventional denture is no longer the most appropriate first choice prosthodontic treatment. There is now overwhelming evidence that a two-implant overdenture should become the first choice of treatment for the edentulous mandible) .Moreover, empirical studies have reported

They’re also much easier to maintain than metal braces: you can brush them with your toothbrush and rinse them in lukewarm water, or use the specialized Invisalign cleaning kit. Moreover, since you remove your aligners to eat, they don’t restrict your diet in any

Implant overdentures have contraindications, mainly in relative to the risks related to the surgical procedures, even if in specific cases it can be regarded as a minimally invasive one. Additionally, using this specific treatment concept is limited to cases with reduced prosthetic vertical space that makes it impossible to apply the attachment systems and also provide adequate prosthesis resistance (e.g., using Locators requires a minimum of 8.5mm vertical space and 9mm horizontal space; bar attachments require 10 to12 mm vertical space) .Implant overdentures are not recommended when there is a decreased D4 bone density, in bruxism and in severe oral hygiene deficiency.

During the second phase, a device specifically sized for each child is also worn at night. It works to gently guide the incoming permanent teeth into the appropriate places, correct jaw relations, and expand the arches to make room for the larger incoming adult teeth. This helps to eliminate and prevent any improper dentition. This device is worn for only about two to five months before the final phase of treatment begins.

For people facing problem of misaligned teeth, the only possible cure was metallic braces. This was the scenario until the time invisalign teeth procedure was developed by cosmetic dentistry. With astonishing results and a pain-free procedure as compared to the traditional braces, aligners have remarkably changed the way dentistry deals with the problem of misaligned teeth.

Recent surveys about retention procedures, done by (Renkema, et al. 2009) and (Lai, et al. 2014), showed some similarities among orthodontists practicing in various countries, such as a frequent use of fixed retainers on mandibular teeth, and an increased popularity of removable vacuum-formed retainers..

technique: such as tension, and duration of the brace application, so as to reduce chance of the brace

It should be noted that this modality of treatment is the not the most ideal modaility of treatment however, it does provide an alternative approach if the ideal modality (Implant/Crown, FPD, RPD) is not accepted or acceptable. Patient accepting this treatment modality should be aware that there is a risk of aspiration. Retention with FRCB cannot reach the level of FPDs; more conservative preparations and bonded nature FRCBs are two reasons worth noting. Patients should exercise care chewing directly
