Implant Retained Dentures For Patients Near Foxrock

If you’re sick of struggling with ill-fitting dentures or you’re looking for a convenient, long-term tooth replacement treatment, why not consider implant-retained dentures? These innovative prostheses offer all the benefits of denture treatment with a host of added extras.

What are implant-retained dentures?

Implant-retained dentures are dentures that are anchored by dental implants. Traditionally, dentures are held in place by the suction of the gums, but with this treatment, implants are used to secure and stabilise the denture. With implants in place to hold the denture, there is no risk of the appliance slipping or sliding.

Dental implants are small titanium appliances, which are designed as a substitute for tooth roots; they are placed inside sockets in the jaw bone and they integrate into the bone tissue, enabling them to offer the same degree of functionality as a tooth root. Once an implant has integrated into the bone, it can then be attached to the denture; implants are also compatible with dental bridges and crowns.

How could implant-retained dentures benefit me?

Implant-retained dentures offer stability, functionality and excellent aesthetics, but perhaps most importantly, they give you the peace of mind that your denture will never come loose or slide when you ear eating or speaking in public. This can be a real concern for many patients with dentures and implants are an amazing solution to many of the issues commonly brought up by denture wearers. With implants, the denture is stronger and more stable, so you can chew more powerfully and eat a wider range of foods. Implants can also lower the risk of bone loss and they are very easy to look after.

Importance Of Hygienist Visit At Dublin18 Dental Care For Patients Near Seapoint

Our dental hygienists are an integral part of the team and we strongly recommend their services to all our patients. Our hygienists have expertise in providing preventative treatments and they also work tirelessly along with our dentists to manage cases of gum disease.

Why are hygienist visits so important?

Good dental hygiene forms the basis for healthy teeth and gums and our hygienists provide a wide range of really effective treatments and services, including cleaning treatments, such as scale and polish, gum disease prevention and treatment, preventative services for children and oral health information and advice.

Prevention is always better than cure and studies have shown that gum disease can have a very serious impact on general health, as well as oral health. Studies have shown that the bacteria associated with gum disease can contribute to potentially serious health complications, including an increased risk of heart disease and strokes. This is because bacteria can travel around the body in the bloodstream.

What are the benefits of going to a dental hygienist?

Seeing a dental hygienist on a regular basis will not just reduce your risk of developing oral diseases, including decay and gum disease, but it will also boost your general health and ensure your teeth look bright and white and feel lovely and smooth. Dental hygienists can also help patients to tackle bad breath and they are able to offer advice about diet, oral hygiene at home and giving up smoking.

We recommend seeing a dental hygienist once a year if you have good oral health and more frequently if you suffer from problems such as bad breath or gum disease. Call the practice or pop in to find out more and book an appointment.

6 Month Smiles For Patients Near Ballsbridge

If you’re searching for a quick, discreet orthodontic solution near Ballsbridge, 6 Month Smiles could be just what you’ve been looking for! This amazing treatment straightens the teeth in just 6 months!

What is 6 Month Smiles and how does it work so fast?

6 Month Smiles is an innovative orthodontic system, which employs the latest technology to speed up tooth movement. 6 Month Smile braces are fixed braces, which comprise of self-ligating wires and light brackets; these parts generate forces, which move the teeth quickly with reduced friction. This system is primarily aimed at patients who have problems with the front teeth and this is another reason why treatment works much faster than other treatments on the market; by focusing solely on the teeth that can be seen when you talk or smile, treatment is more concentrated and times are much shorter.

What are the advantages and disadvantages of 6 Month Smiles?

There are many advantages of 6 Month Smiles. Firstly, the time frame is much shorter than most other treatments and secondly, fixed braces are reliable and the treatment process is incredibly simple. These braces are also more discreet than traditional fixed braces and the technology enables gentle movement, which increases comfort. The brackets are clear and the wires designed to match the shade of the teeth, so your braces should be barely noticeable when you smile.

6 Month Smiles is also less expensive than other treatments because the process is so simple and fewer appointments are required.

The only real downside of 6 Month Smiles is that it is not suitable for everyone. Ideally, this treatment is geared towards patients who have issues with the social 6, the teeth at the front of the mouth. If you have problems with the back teeth or general alignment issues or you have very complex needs, which require significant movement, other options will probably be preferable.

Implants From €2000 For Patients Near Seapoint

Dublin18 Dental Care is proud to offer patients in Seapoint amazing dental implant treatment for just €2000. This innovative treatment is an excellent solution for patients of all ages who are searching for a long-term replacement for lost natural teeth. Whether you’ve lost a tooth playing sport or you’re looking for an alternative to dentures for a full arch of missing teeth, dental implants could prove the perfect choice.

About dental implants

Dental implants are made from titanium and shaped like small screws; the aim of an implant is to replace the root section of the lost tooth. Implants are placed inside sockets in the jaw bone and then left to heal. As titanium is a biocompatible material, it integrates into the bone tissue and this allows the implant to offer the same standard of stability as a natural root.

Dental implants are the most versatile option for replacing missing teeth because they fit with different restorations and this means that they are suitable for patients with one or multiple missing teeth.

How does an implant work?

Implants are placed inside pre-drilled holes in the jaw bone and they are then left to undergo the process of osseointegration; once this is complete, the implant will have become part of the actual bone tissue and it can be attached to a new restoration to produce a strong, healthy and natural looking tooth. Implants are the closest match to a natural tooth and they also last a lot longer than bridges and dentures. As the implant takes on the role of a new root, the restoration is completely stable and this allows you to do everything you would be able to do with a natural tooth.

Am I a suitable match for treatment?

Dental implants are a suitable match for most patients; however, if you smoke heavily or you suffer from a condition, which affects bone density, there may be other options, which are better suited. If you lack bone density in the jaw bone, we may recommend bone grafting prior to treatment; this is because the implant may fail if the bone tissue is not dense enough.

How does Botox treatment work?

Botox is a purified form of toxin, which helps to reduce the visibility of facial lines by preventing the delivery of nerve signals to the facial muscles; this means that muscle contraction is reduced. The quantity of Botox used is very small and this treatment is considered to be both safe and effective when it is provided by a trained professional who has experience in facial rejuvenation treatment.

The actual procedure simply involves injecting Botox into the skin; we will discuss the areas you want to treat before you have treatment and outline the pros and cons, risks and details of the procedure during your consultation.

Does my child need braces?

It is very common for children to have alignment issues and problems with the bite and we are often able to detect signs from a very early age. It is usually best to treat teenagers, rather than waiting until they are older because treatment works faster, the outcome is better and early treatment enables children to enjoy the benefits of treatment sooner. It is possible for adults to have treatment, but as orthodontic problems tend to get worse with time, treatment usually takes longer and the results are sometimes not as good.

If your child needs braces, we will discuss this with you and highlight the issues and explain how braces could help and what benefits treatment would bring.

The advantages of fixed orthodontics

Orthodontic treatment has a host of benefits for teenagers and it can really make a difference to confidence levels, as well as oral function. Orthodontic issues can affect speech, facial aesthetics and the ability to eat, as well as the look of the smile and treatment helps to resolve these issues.

Fixed braces are a tried and tested solution and they are guaranteed to produce excellent results. Modern braces are light and much less cumbersome than they used to be and they are also more comfortable. With a straight smile, children can feel more confident and they don’t have to worry about comments from others.
