Dental Implants: Restoring Your Smile and Confidence

 

A Perfect Smile with Dental Implants: LV Dental Square Makes it Possible



Looking for a long-lasting solution for missing teeth?
Dental implants might be your answer! At LV Dental Square, we offer advanced dental implant procedures to restore your smile and confidence.

What are Dental Implants?

Dental implants are tiny surgical posts that replace the root of a missing tooth. These implants are made of biocompatible materials like titanium and are surgically placed into your jawbone. Over time, the jawbone fuses with the implant through a process called osseointegration, creating a strong foundation for a permanent artificial tooth.

Benefits of Dental Implants at LV Dental Square

Dental implants offer a multitude of advantages over traditional bridges or dentures:

  • Permanent Fix: Dental implants provide a long-term fix for tooth loss. Unlike dentures that need to be removed for cleaning, implants function just like natural teeth.

  • Improved Function and Appearance: Implants provide excellent stability and support, allowing you to chew and speak with confidence. The artificial tooth is custom-designed to blend seamlessly with your existing teeth for a natural look.

  • Durability and Efficiency: Dental implants are highly durable and can last a lifetime with proper care.

  • Convenience: Implants eliminate the need for messy adhesives or the discomfort of loose dentures.

The Dental Implant Process at LV Dental Square

Our experienced dentists at LV Dental Square will guide you through every step of the dental implant process, ensuring a smooth and successful experience. Here's a general overview:

  1. Consultation and Planning: We will thoroughly examine your mouth and discuss your individual needs and goals. X-rays or CT scans may be required to assess your jawbone health.

  2. Tooth Extraction (if necessary): If a damaged tooth is present, it will be extracted to make room for the implant.

  3. Bone Grafting (if necessary): In some cases, a bone graft may be needed to strengthen the jawbone before implant placement.

  4. Implant Placement: A minor surgical procedure is performed to insert the implant into the jawbone. A healing cap is then placed over the implant site.

  5. Healing and Osseointegration: The jawbone heals and fuses with the implant over a period of several months.

  6. Abutment Placement: A small connector piece called an abutment is attached to the implant.

  7. Artificial Tooth Attachment: Finally, a custom-made crown, bridge, or denture is securely fastened to the abutment, completing your new smile.

Taking Care of Your Dental Implants

Keeping your mouth clean is essential to the long-term health of your dental implants. We will provide you with specific instructions on how to care for your implants, including brushing, flossing, and regular dental checkups.

Sensitive Teeth? Don't Suffer in Silence!

 

Sensitive Teeth Got You Down? 



Do you experience any discomfort when consuming something cold or hot?Do you feel a sharp pang when brushing your teeth? Millions of people worldwide suffer from the frequent issue of tooth sensitivity.

But fear not! Lv Dental is here to help you smile without the sting. 

What causes tooth sensitivity?

There are several reasons why your teeth might be feeling extra sensitive.Some of the most frequent causes listed below

  • Receding gums: When your gums recede, they expose the dentin, the layer beneath your tooth enamel. Dentin is much softer than enamel and contains tiny tubules that lead directly to the nerve of your tooth. This can make your teeth hypersensitive to hot, cold, sweet, and sour stimuli.

  • Worn enamel: Over time, enamel can wear away due to factors like acidic foods and drinks, aggressive brushing, or grinding your teeth. This can also expose the dentin and lead to sensitivity.

  • Cracked teeth: A cracked tooth can allow irritants to reach the dentin and nerve, causing pain.

  • Dental treatments: Certain dental procedures, such as fillings or crowns, can temporarily irritate the tooth and cause sensitivity.

How can Lv Dental treat tooth sensitivity?

The good news is that there are many effective treatments for tooth sensitivity. Depending on the cause and severity of your sensitivity, 

  • Desensitizing toothpaste: These toothpastes contain ingredients that block the tiny tubules in your dentin, preventing irritants from reaching the nerve.

  • Fluoride treatment: Fluoride strengthens your tooth enamel and helps to prevent further erosion.

  • Dental bonding: If you have a chipped or cracked tooth, bonding can cover up the exposed dentin and protect your tooth from sensitivity.

  • Gum grafting: If your gums have receded significantly, Lv Dental may recommend gum grafting to cover the exposed dentin and protect your teeth.

Here a few things you can do at home to help manage tooth sensitivity:

  • Brush gently with a soft-bristled toothbrush.

  • Avoid acidic foods and drinks.

  • Use a straw when drinking cold beverages.

  • If you grind your teeth at sleep, use a mouthguard.
