It is an advanced medical technology for the treatment of tooth loss. A titanium implant is placed at the toothless area of the jawbone. Later the jawbone fuses with the titanium providing a strong anchorage for the implant. This implant acts as the support for the dental prosthesis constructed over it.

To replace an individual missing tooth.

To anchor a bridge that will replace multiple teeth

To support dentures so that they are held firmly in place and won’t slip or move around when you talk or chew

Totally edentulous patients (missing all their teeth) can receive a full set of implants, depending on their oral health. An approach similar to the one used to replace multiple teeth is used. An implant can be placed to replace a missing single/multiple teeth without disturbing the patient’s natural teeth .

With advances in modern technology, root canal treatments are much easier to have done than they used to be. Most people report that it is similar to having a filing placed. Ask Dr. Anwer and his staff about how we can make your visit more comfortable.

Just as we inherit eye color from our parents, mouth and jaw features are also inherited. Examples of these genetic problems are crowding, spacing, protrusion, extra or missing teeth and some jaw growth problems. Some other bad bites are acquired as local factors such as finger sucking, pacifier sucking, high cavity rate, gum disease, trauma and premature loss of baby teeth can also contribute to a bad bite. One out of every five school age children have a severe bite problem so it is not surprising that you might need braces.

Baby teeth hold room for the permanent teeth that will come in later. A lower lingual arch space maintainer can be placed when the baby canine and baby molars are getting loose or fall out prematurely. The space maintainer prevents the lower back permanent molar from slipping forward and prevents the lower front permanent incisor teeth from tipping toward the tongue. This saves or preserves the maximum amount of space for the permanent teeth (canines and bicuspids) that grow between the permanent back molar and the permanent lower incisors.

Luckily, your options for correcting crooked teeth mean you don't have to endure the uncomfortable metal braces of the past! Numerous other cosmetic dentistry techniques exist that can provide “instant orthodontics” that require no braces at all. Composite bonding and the application of porcelain veneers are both conservative ways to mask the appearance of crooked teeth. Be aware that these cosmetic approaches cannot address orthodontic issues such as an overbite, underbite, or crossbite, and therefore are not suitable for every patient.
