A bone graft is the addition of bone, or bone-like material, in an effort to increase the volume of bone in the jaw.  Typically, the bone is placed and heals before the implant can be placed.  The healing period can vary, depending on the type of bone used.

• Autograft – bone used from the patient’s own body.
• Allograft – bone from a genetically similar organism
• Xenograft – bone from a genetically dissimilar organism
• Synthetic – a synthetic biocompatible material

The type of bone graft that will be chosen will depend on the situation, and on the amount of bone required.

CEREC is used in the replacement amalgam or composite resin fillings that have failed, fractured or decayed.

Advantages: including:

• superior aesthetics

• superior strength – guaranteeing greater longevity

• single-visit ceramic restoration

• conservation of healthy tooth structure

On average, seeing a dentist twice a year works well for most people. A few people can get away with fewer visits. Others may need more frequent visits. People with very little risk of cavities or gum disease can do fine seeing their dentist just once a year. People with a high risk of dental disease might need to visit every three or four months, or more. 

This high-risk group includes:

·

Smokers

·

Diabetics

·

People with current gum disease

·

People with a weak immune response to bacterial infection

·

People who tend to get cavities or build up plaque

Images obtained with cone beam CT allow for more precise treatment planning, specially implant dentistry and oral and maxillofacial surgical treatments.

The chewing surfaces of the molar and premolar teeth have "fissures"that make them vulnerable to decay. These fissures can be deep, are difficult to clean.than even a single bristle of a toothbrush. Plaque accumulates in these areas.The first dental sealant to be placed is usually on the fissure of the first permanent molar tooth once the chewing surface of the tooth has erupted completely beyond the gum. 

General Anaesthesia is rarely used for dental treatment One of the reasons for this is that IV Sedation works so well for nearly everyone, and is extremely safe. Each general anaesthetic carries a certain amount of risk.

LB CLINICAS performs that general anaesthesia for dental treatment in adults is used as a last resort or disabled patients, where there is no other method of pain and anxiety management appropriate for the person in question. This treatment is done in our hospital with all the necessary safety equipment and managed by medical doctors specialists in general anesthesia

Types of Gum Surgery

1. Gingival Flap Surgery – If pockets are greater than 5 millimeters in depth, the periodontist would conduct this procedure to reduce the periodontal pockets that were noted in a patients chart. Most patients who have been diagnosed with moderate to severe periodontitis would go through this procedure. 

2. Gingivectomy 

– This procedure is conducted to remove excess gum tissue that may be overgrown on the teeth to provide a better area to clean the teeth. 

3.Gingivoplasty 

– This type of gum surgery is used to reshape healthy gum tissue around the teeth to make them look better. If a person has tooth recession where the gum is pushed away from the tooth, a gingivoplasty can be done. .

Dental inlays and onlays are a medium between dental crowns and fillings. They are implicated on teeth at the back of the mouth that has suffered a moderate level of decay. and can also be placed on teeth that have undergone some fracturing; more serious damage will probably be resolved with a dental crown.

The aim is to relieve pain. 

Sedative medication helps relax patients by slowing the action of the central nervous system. People remain aware of their surroundings, but are less responsive to external stimuli like the sound of the drill or the smell of materials.

This also reduces their sense of pain.  

Current medications are often more powerful and less likely to carry unpleasant side effects.

Our medical doctors weigh a number of factors carefully to assess which drug will be the safest choice in a unique situation for a particular individual.

The treatment of each person suffering from TMJ dysfunction must be tailored to the particular needs of the individual. A careful study must be done to clearly define the nature of the your problem. This involves a thorough consultation and examination. During the examination a comprehensive physical examination is made to evaluate sites of pain, as well as evaluating the functional integration of related body systems.

The following diagnostic procedures may be performed by the doctors: X-rays of the teeth and TM Joint, plaster models of the mouth, and a computer-assisted analysis of the TM Joints After a comprehensive analysis of the information obtained a specific treatment plan is developed. Treatment is oriented to providing relief of pain and restoration of normal function of the involved structures.
