Restorative Dentist Consultation Panaji

Each. A dental implant is a man-made replacement for natural teeth which allows the person to return to fixed teeth. Dental implants fuse with the jawbone to form a secure foundation for tooth replacement.There are two basic types of implants available at our clinic:- Conventional Implants :done in two phases over 2 months;- Immediate Implants : done in one phase also known as one day or same day implants.The categories of dental implants will be selected by the doctor depending on your specific needs and general dental condition. You would require an x-ray and/or CT scan to evaluate the amount of bone remaining, models of your mouth to determine space available and a thorough examination to decide which type of implant can help you the most.

It require at least 2 appointments to be completed. The length of time of each appointment depend on the condition of your teeth, and on how many veneers you are having done. Depending on the structural integrity of your teeth, the health of your gums, and your occlusion (bite), crowns or braces may be recommended instead of, or in addition to, veneers in order to achieve the desired results.If your natural teeth are discolored, you may want to consider whitening your teeth before veneers are applied, since extremely dark stains could show through the thin porcelain shell. Whitening after will not change the color of the porcelain veneers.In order to minimize the risks, it is important that you follow all of our dentists instructions, both before and after the procedure.

The appearance of the gingival tissues surrounding the teeth plays an important role in the esthetics of the anterior maxillary region of the mouth.Abnormalities in symmetry and contour can significantly affect the harmonious appearance of the natural or prosthetic dentition. As well nowadays, patients have a greater desire for more esthetic results which may influence treatment choice.Esthetic periodontal surgery is sometimes performed to change the dimension of the front teeth and to optimize the esthetic outcome of treatment with new crown restorations or other esthetic dental care.In some instances a simple procedure can increase the length of the teeth to improve esthetics. Extensive dental work is often necessary to restore oral health.

Implants are titanium cylinders with a surface with a screw, which is placed in the jawbone. The implant is made of commercially pure titanium, a metal that integrates with the patients bone and is fixed to it strongly. Now we have several types of implants for each different situation, allowing us to treat more and more people and fit the final prosthesis in less time, in most cases in one hour or one day. Most implants are sometimes placed under local anesthesia, without general anesthesia. Depending on the patient, this procedure can be carried out under a conscious sedation. A sterile field to prevent infection is prepared before the surgery. More frequently we fit the implants without any incision to the gum and no stitches. Then an incision of less than 4 mm in diameter is made and the dental implant is placed inside the bone. Finally a screw is fixed to the implant or provisional prosthesis.

Veneers are wafer-thin lamintates or shells of tooth-coloured material (which can be either porcelain, ceramic or composite bonding material). They are “cemented” to the front surface of teeth to improve their cosmetic appearance. Many dentists use the analogy that dental veneers are for your teeth what false fingernails are for your hands. There are a wide variety of reasons why patients opt for treatment with dental veneers: Stained teeth - badly stained teeth that cannot be improved by teeth whitening or prophyflex treatments can be greatly improved by dental veneers, which function to cover any existing stains on your teeth. Damaged teeth - teeth that have become badly worn through excessive grinding or by carbonated drinks, as well as those that have been chipped or broken, can benefit from veneers. A small chip on a tooth can quickly be repaired with composite bonding, also knows as "composite veneers". A single damaged tooth can easily be repaired with a porcelain veneer that has the same characteristics and colour as you natural teeth. Gaps - spaces or gaps (diastimas) between your teeth can easily be closed using dental veneers, giving you a more uniform-looking smile. For teeth that are not severely crooked, veneers placed over their front surface will give a straight and perfectly aligned-looking smile. For this type of treatment, many people refer to veneers as "instant orthodontics", as you get a similar end result in a fraction of the time.
