Treatment of Orofacial Pain Worldwide

The use of the oral cavity is the beginning of our digestive systems. If this is compromised it can effect our lives negatively. You swallow approximately 2,000 times per day which causes the upper and lower teeth to come together and push against the skull.  People who have: unstable bite missing teeth poorly aligned teeth clenching grinding teeth trauma to head and neck  poor ergonomics............            ......have trouble because the muscles work harder to bring the teeth together, causing strain.  This pain my also occur in ears, eyes, sinuses, checks or side of the head or there may a clicking when moving the jaw or even locking if the jaw is opened or closed.

Here at Ribagin Dent, we focus our attention solely on the patients needs. We aim to give you, the patient, the smile you desire by paying attention to all your inquiries, we respect your privacy, we explain every aspect of the treatment you will need (time needed, cost, materials that will be used etc...) These days it is understood that it is very difficult to choose the right cosmetic dentist to carry out your treatment. Different people look for different things in a cosmetic dentist. Some patients are nervous and want a dentist that is sympathetic and understanding and will take their time.

--per implant--- A dental implant is a "root" device, usually made of titanium, used in dentistry to support restorations that resemble a tooth or group of teeth to replace missing teeth. The first stage of implantation requires the implantologist to assess factors (eg. bone levels, medical conditions) which will decide whether the patient is a good candidate for implants (assessed with panoramic x-rays).If implants are viable, the implantologist will proceed to insert the implant/s into the jaw/s, suture(stitch) the area/s up and the patient will be re-called for a check-up appointment +- 6 months later. These 6 months are vital because the bone fuses to the implant giving it the best support/strength, the soft tissue (gums) are also healed in the area of implantation and the sutures keep the implants free of bacteria. The next stage is started whereby the patient returns after the +- 6 months and the crown/s (the visible part of the tooth) are prepared which will be constructed at a dental lab by dental technicians. The dentist will place temporary crowns on the implant/s abutments (the extension that protrudes out of the gum where the crowns will be fixed to the implant) so that the patient will have use of that area, the implants will be protected and for aesthetic appeal. The patient will then be re-called and the final permanent crowns will be placed.Please note: if you have many teeth missing in an area, this will normally not require you to have implants for every single tooth. For single or double tooth loss in one area-you will need individual implants but 3 or more in one area will require less implants.
