CLARENCE-ROCKLAND PARADE OF LIGHTS TWINKLES DOWN LAURIER STREET

Loss of teeth!
Tooth loss is not the only problem. Much is said about keeping your own natural teeth healthy. If time comes that teeth need to be pulled out, most often there are underlying causes. Many people don’t realize that when you lose your teeth, the bone shrinks away. What does that mean when you need to replace the missing teeth? A few things are important to consider when teeth need to be replaced. There are only two options available: insert implants, if there is adequate bone to secure the implant, or a fitted partial or complete denture or a combination of both. Now here’s where the bone is important. If there is not enough bone, dentures will not work well and implant placement might be impossible. Severe bone loss and denture are a horrible outcome. Some patients already suffer from an important amount of bone loss from periodontal disease leaving the dentist with little bone left to work with after the teeth are removed. So what to do? I suggest contacting us to discuss your situation beforehand and plan out possibly a bone preservation therapy to keep whatever bone is left. If your family, friends or neighbours tell you that dentures are great, function well and they, themselves, have no problems, well take that with a grain of salt because your mouth is probably not the same. Get the true facts from a dental professional to discuss your situation.
