Rebuilding Smiles With Dental Implants

When your family member is confined to their home, or a nursing home or hospital setting, this can prevent them from being able to see the dentist. Along with issues like tooth decay and gum disease, they could also develop tooth loss and with it, a host of complications. But with dental implants, your mobile dentist can help people in Los Angeles, CA, enjoy full smiles again!

Mobile Dentistry

As the name implies, mobile dentistry is all about bringing the services of a dental office to your relative’s bedside. We help people confined to assisted living, homes, and hospitals, so they don’t see their oral health and quality of life suffer. Often, people in these situations could be more vulnerable to issues like tooth decay, infection, gum disease, and tooth loss, especially since many medications and illness could have dry mouth and inflammation as a complication. Routine care can protect smiles and preserve their teeth. But we can also help with more advanced and involved procedures. For example, when a relative begins to suffer from tooth loss, we can discuss bridges and dentures, but we can also secure lifelike and durable dental implants!

Dental Implants

Dental implants are the most ideal option for replacing missing teeth. They rely on inserting a titanium post into the jaw, which acts as a new root. Not only does this offer greater stability and a longer-lasting replacement tooth, but this also prevents the breakdown in the jaw that follows tooth loss, and could lead to an aged appearance. The post is made from titanium and accepted as natural bone structure. The growth of new tissue is stimulated by their presence, which helps secure the new tooth and preserves the smile as a whole. For an individual one, we can attach a custom crown to complete the tooth and ensure lifelike results. But we can also offer fixed dentures.

Fixed and Comfortable Dentures

Traditional dentures rely on factors like suction, adhesives, and clasps to stay in place. As the jawbone loses mass and density and changes shape, they need replacement every five to ten years. But with dental implants, we insert multiple posts per arch and attach a denture to them. These are fixed in place, and since the implant portion preserves the jaw, they can last for decades to come. No slippage when they eat or speak, no cleaning or soaking either. This can make eating and speaking much more comfortable and effective, and helps patients feel more confident too.
