HOW TO CHOOSE AN ORTHODONTIST FOR CLEAR ALIGNERS / INVISALIGN?

What re the points that should be considered before opting for Clear Aligners Orthodontic Treatment?

  1. Although Clear Aligner Treatment is comfortable, hassle free, fast and aesthetically superior as compared to braces, the major drawback of the treatment is that complex orthodontic cases cannot be resolved by it and one has to opt for a fixed orthodontic treatment.
  2. Sometimes, when the result is not achieved within predicted time period and is prolonged due to the ‘lag phase’ , an additional set of trays might be required. Orthodontists charge an extra amount for the additional set. At Teeth Care Centre, our Orthodontist Dr. Nirav Patel is considerate about his patients and does not charge extra for an additional set of trays.
  3. One important thing that has to be kept in mind is that, not all brands of Clear Aligners are the same. They are technique- sensitive. For example, Invisalign is one of the brands highly recommended by Orthodontists worldwide and orthodontists trained in the particular brand will yield the desired results. The reason Invisalign is expensive as compared to other brands is that it is highly advanced and offers excellent results.
  4. Clear Aligner treatment is very different from the fixed orthodontic treatment. It is crucial to opt for a certified Orthodontist who has been practising and has an experience in the field of Clear Aligners. Despite employing Computer technology, an Orthodontist’s skills are crucial in order to yield successful results. As mentioned above, every brand is technique- sensitive, and every orthodontist has to have the skills and experience regarding the particular brand/ brands he/she is employing.
  5. Apart from an Orthodontist’s skills and experience, another essential factor is to take into consideration the set-up of Dental Clinic. For Clear Aligner Treatment, invisalign dental clinic india
    specialized equipment, instruments and the latest and upgraded technology is important. For example, Scanners, IPR kits, Tray trimmers, polishing instruments, attachment bonding instruments, Tray Forming Machines etc.

HOW IS LASER GUM SURGERY SUPERIOR TO THE TRADITIONAL GUM SURGERY?

Gum disease also referred to as periodontal disease is an inflammation of the gums in an initial stage and infection of the bone and supporting tissues that hold the teeth in the sockets, at an advanced stage. Gum disease may be caused by a number of factors like poor oral hygiene, certain medications, smoking, genetic susceptibility, aging etc.

The basic treatment for gum disease is scaling and root planing. It is a non surgical method wherein teeth cleaning is done, including removal off plaque and tartar around the roots.

In some cases, deep cleaning might be required. A gum flap surgery is carried out in these cases, wherein the gum tissue is cut, deep cleaning is done and the tissue is flapped back, sutured and allowed to heal. The major disadvantage of traditional flap surgery is increased bleeding. Other disadvantages are prolonged healing time, swelling and pain.

An alternative to the traditional gum surgery is the Laser gum surgery.  It is especially recommended in patients who have an advanced periodontal disease like deep pocket formation, diabetes etc.  In periodontal laser treatment, an access to the inflamed/ diseased gum tissue is gained with aid of a dental laser. After removal of the infected gum disease, roots are exposed and its scaling and planing are done. Then the tissue between roots and gums regenerate during the healing process.

ADVANTAGES:

  1. Dental lasers target the infected tissue precisely and accurately.
  2. Healing occurs at a rapid pace.
  3. Bleeding, pain, swelling and soft tissue trauma is minimal.

BIOLASE , is one of the best brands of soft tissue laser employed worldwide. It measures the temperature of tip of the laser for predictable and consistent results.

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF A DENTAL IMPLANT ?

The major benefit of an implant is that, it preserves the jawbone, prevents its resorption, restores the missing tooth and the supporting structures, replaces it in such a way that it almost serves like a natural tooth, in form and function. It also retains your natural face shape and smile.  An Orthopaedic Surgeon in Sweden discovered the phenomenon of Osseointegration of titanium plates. Osseointegration is a connection between living bone and the surface of a load carrying implant, which occurs also when a Dental Implant is placed.

 WHAT ARE THE INDICATIONS OF A DENTAL IMPLANT?

The indications are restoring dental aesthetics and functions like mastication and speech, space maintenance and bone preservation after tooth loss.

WHAT IS THE PROCEDURE?

Prior to the treatment, thorough clinical and radiological evaluation is done. Medical history is recorded, and the risks and complications are ruled out. In case of severe bone atrophy, bone grafting is done, as/if instructed by the Doctor. The steps included in the surgical procedure are:

1 )Oral soft tissue reflection. An alternative is a flapless procedure.

2) Drilling of the bone.

3) Placement of the implant.

4) Healthy gingival tissue is adapted around the healing abutment.

 

The surgery could be single stage or a two stage surgery.

The prosthetic phase will begin once the integration of the implant is confirmed. A temporary prosthesis might be given till then.
