Every medical professional, regardless of their field of medicine, wants to utilize the best possible tools for their patients. Prior to doing any dental work such as implants or root canals, it is important for the doctor to know exactly what they are dealing with. In the past, a Panorex image was used because that was state-of-the-art. But today, the Vatech 3D digital imaging process is becoming the standard for all dentists, doctors, and orthodontists.
Dental implants are prosthetics made of titanium alloy that replace the root of the tooth and support a prosthesis. These prosthetics, once anchored to a healthy bone, provide reliable stability for the patient’s new teeth. Implants are suitable for patients who have lost one, several, or all of their teeth. They contribute towards improving your physical appearance and ability to chew.
Making sure your child is properly brushing and flossing can be a challenge, but it’s well worth the effort. The risks of poor oral health aren’t limited to cavities. When plaque is not adequately removed from the gumline, bacterial growth can lead to gum disease, also called periodontal disease.

Clean your teeth regularly to avoid gum disease, cavities, and other oral and teeth issues. Isn’t it wonderful when you go to the dentist, get a great report, and then get sent on your way without mention of cavities, root canals, or any other additional procedures?
Root canal therapy is becoming increasingly advanced, benefiting both the patient and the dentist. Thanks to recent technological improvements, you can now have a root canal completed without invasive or painful surgery. These are some of the best advances that dentists are currently using to improve the root canal process.
Kids might not keep their baby teeth for long, but that’s no reason to ignore proper dental hygiene. Aside from the risk of getting cavities, untreated gum disease compromises kids’ ability to eat well, sleep properly, and function at home and school. Plus, healthy baby teeth keep jawlines straight and hold the space for adult teeth to grow in.
Traditionally, if you did not have sufficient bone mass in your jaws, the only option was bone graft surgery to regenerate enough bone mass to create a sufficient foundation for traditional dental implants. Now there are revolutionary dental implant techniques that eliminate the need for bone grafting altogether. Zygomatic Implants are a graftless dental implant technique where the implant is directly embedded in your cheekbones (referred to as Zygoma), where there is enough bone support for the implants.
For several people, fear overrules the need for important dental work. Avoiding the dentist makes most dental issues even worse. There are people who show up on the day of their appointment that are so worked up with fear and anxiety that they tense up and make even a simple procedure difficult for themselves and their dentist.
