Dental Bonding

Bonding is a simple dental cosmetic procedure in which a tooth colored resin is used to repair chipped or cracked teeth. Also closes the gap and alters the shape of the tooth. A composite resin when a special light is applied gets hardened is the procedure involved in it.

Dental Veneers

A veneer is a thin layer of material made up of porcelain or resin composite and is bonded onto the cracked, discolored or misshaped teeth for improving the aesthetics.

Crowns

A tooth-shaped “cap” that is kept over a weak or damaged tooth to improve its shape, size, strength, or appearance is a crown. Crown can be available in metal, porcelain fused to metal, resin, or ceramic

Enamel Shaping

This is a simple process of reshaping the natural tooth to improve its appearance. Crowded or uneven teeth that need small corrections may come under this procedure. Teeth whitening, veneers or bonding are often combined with enamel reshaping.

Orthodontic Braces

Orthodontic braces function as correcting the crooked or mal-aligned teeth to improve the health and appearance of the smile. The steady pressure applied via braces, over time moves teeth into proper positioning.

Teeth Whitening

Whitening systems are many. In office whitening, home whitening, laser whitening etc. Since whitening is ideal for healthy and unrestored teeth and gums, seeking your dentist’s advice is the right decision for you.

Composite Fillings

Since amalgam fillings contain mercury, which is harmful to the health, nowadays tooth coloured composite fillings replace silver amalgam. But it is well suited for small cavities rather than larger cavities.

Gummy smile correction

When the teeth appear too short or when the gum line appears excess or uneven, it is corrected by removing a minor amount of gum tissue and excess bone tissue (if needed) and contoured to show up more of the teeth.

Dental Implants

Now you can have an artificial tooth for a lifetime. The dental implant is an artificial tooth. Its root is made up of Titanium and an abutment is attached to hold the artificial tooth in firm.  The Titanium root which is screwed into the jaw bone provides a strong foundation. The attachment of an artificial tooth (crown) may be permanent or removable.

Dentures

A denture is a removable dental prosthetic for missing and surrounding tissue. Complete dentures and Partial dentures are the two types of dentures. While complete dentures used for people with no teeth is left, a partial denture is used for people with some natural teeth is left

Bridges (fixed partial dentures)

A bridge replaces one or more missing tooth by placing crowns on the adjacent sides of the missing tooth area. The bridge is then cemented firmly into place..

Gum Grafts

The exposed gum roots caused by gum recession may be sensitive to hot and cold food or liquid, which make teeth look longer than the real and can result in developing cavity on the tooth root and bone loss. Gum grafting can stop gum recession by moving healthy gum tissue to the gum line. It also stops bone loss and gives improved aesthetics to the gum line.

Advantages of Dental Implants over Dentures @ Jerush

Why Dental Implants?

Dental implants provide many advantages compared to dentures. A denture that suits best for the beginning may tend to slip and become uncomfortable after some time which is due to the gradual bone loss. Keeping the denture steadily for a long time firmly on the bony ridges that dentures clasp onto is a difficult task due to wear. It is specific to say that the most annoying aspect of denture is its poor chewing ability.

Here are some points to consider while you are deciding between a denture or an implant-supported restoration

  • Dental adhesives are often used for bonding dentures in the mouth. This sometimes requires re-bonding after food. No such adhesives are needed for implant supported dentures.
  • Dentures demand ‘removal’ for cleaning, whereas except for removable denture, implant supported denture can be cleaned by brushing and flossing as like normal teeth
  • Your sense of taste is compromised as the roof of the mouth is covered by dentures. No such condition occurs in implant-supported restoration.
  • Dentures may slip out while speaking or eating, whereas implants are firmly anchored in the jaws and won’t get slipped.
  • With dentures, you need to eat with caution and sometimes you may limit eating more food since it has only 10% chewing power to that of natural teeth. Contrary to it, with implant restorations, one can eat with full chewing power.
  • Click sound while you hear during eating with dentures is no more with implant supported dentures.
  • Dentures have no effect on jaw bone needed to prevent bone loss, while implants ensure high-pressure stimulation that needed to prevent jawbone loss.
  • Bone loss progression caused overtime while wearing dentures can result in contributing ‘old look’ to the face. Implants prevent bone loss.
