The importance of visiting your dental Coorparoo for healthy teeth

dental-coorparoo

During the course of life, there are many factors which can affect our dental health. Despite good dental hygiene at home, if we avoid the dentist for long periods of time then plaque and tartar can build up in our mouths and result in an array of dental issues. Over time these issues can progress to become tooth decay and gum disease. These problems may be asymptomatic to begin with and unless you visit the dentist for regular examinations of your teeth and gums they can cause damage until it becomes irreversible. It is important that you visit our dental Coorparoo at least once every six months for a comprehensive assessment of your teeth and gums, to make sure that they are healthy and strong, and that there are no underlying dental conditions. If you are prone to dental complications, it is important that you visit our dental Coorparoo more frequently so that you can make sure any dental issues are detected earlier on and treated successfully, before they can cause permanent or irreversible damage to your teeth and gums.

Tooth loss

If you avoid the dentist and dental issues remain unattended to then, unfortunately, this can result in tooth loss. If you have experienced tooth loss then you are not alone. A significant percentage of the adult population are missing one or more teeth and with advances in dental technology, tooth replacement therapy is now more convenient and more accessible than ever before. Speak to our dental Coorparoo today to find out about the different tooth replacement options which are available for you.

Dental implants at our dental Coorparoo

The last few decades have seen a surge in popularity concerning the use of dental implants for tooth replacement therapy. Here at our dental Coorparoo we believe that dental implants are the gold standard in replacing missing teeth. Whether you are missing a single tooth or multiple teeth, dental implants could be the ideal solution for you. Whether you have lost your tooth as a result of poor oral hygiene or you are missing teeth due to an accident, speak to us at Brisbane Laser Dentist to find out about how dental implants can provide a permanent replacement for your missing teeth. Dental implants replace the root of your missing tooth and are inserted directly into your jawbone, where they are embedded by natural bodily processes so that they are fixed for life and provide a strong foundation for your choice of dental prosthesis. We will need to make sure that you have sufficient healthy bone for the implant to be inserted into. Therefore, it is important that you contact us earlier on after losing your tooth or you may begin to experience a certain degree of bone decay in that area. If this is the case you may require bone grafting prior to dental implant surgery and you can find out more about this with our dentist here at our dental practice. The process itself can take between 3 to 4 months to be completed successfully, Therefore the earlier you begin the process the quicker you will be on your way to achieving a beautiful and healthy smile.

All treatment carries risks. Individual consultation is required with one of our practitioners to ensure that the treatment is right for you.
