THE IMPORTANCE OF SOCKET PRESERVATION AFTER TOOTH EXTRACTION

pexels-photo-1644888Once tooth is removed, there is a hole that is left where the tooth used to be, and this is called socket. This socket tends to be quite sensitive initially. This is the reason why the dentist will often recommend that you undergo socket preservation as well when undergoing extraction. It is important to protect the socket.

Dry Socket

One of the dangers of tooth extraction and an unhealed tooth socket is what’s known as a dry socket. This painful condition develops when the healthy blood clot becomes loose or dislodged, exposing the sensitive nerve beneath. If left untreated, a dry socket can become infected and harm existing bone, tissues, and surrounding teeth. Socket preservation helps prevent this condition from happening to eliminate the chances of pain and infection after a tooth extraction.

Bone Preservation

Socket preservation also helps to preserve the health and structure of your natural bone. During the procedure, the bone graft material is packed directly into the empty socket. Filling this space helps prevent resorption of the bone. This can reduce the risk of remaining teeth shifting out of place and altering the bite as the bone will shrink at a much slower rate.

 Prepare for Dental Implants

Another reason for socket preservation is to prepare the bone for a dental implant to be placed at a future date. To safely place a dental implant, the bone needs to have adequate density and volume. Preserving the bone at the time of a tooth extraction can better guarantee that the bone will still be strong and dense enough to not need bone grafting at the time of implant placement.

At Teeth Care Centre®, we use several methods to minimize bone loss after tooth extraction. Filling the socket with bone graft material is one of the most commonly adopted modes of treatment. Once the socket is filled with bone graft, it is then covered with gum and allowed to heal for a considerable period of time. Socket healing eliminates chances of shrinkage and collapse of the adjacent bone and gums. Moreover, the newly formed bone in the socket aids in implant placement, by eliminating the need for procedures like sinus lift, ridge split and nerve repositioning.

Our experienced dentist in ahmedabad encourage the need of socket preservation following each extraction, to make the process of tooth replacement as sound and hassle free as possible for you.

Baby Bottle Tooth Decay

baby-girl-boy-child-previewBaby Bottle Tooth Decay is a term used to describe the decay that develops when baby teeth have frequent and prolonged contact with too much sugar. It can occur when babies are put to bed with a bottle, when a bottle is used as a pacifier, or if a baby uses a bottle for extended periods.

Baby bottle tooth decay is caused by frequent and long-term exposure of your child’s teeth to sweetened fluids, such as formula milk, fruit juice, and syrups with sugar or honey. Sugars from these fluids tend to cling to your child’s teeth and feed bacteria in the mouth, which produce acids that attack the teeth.

Babies do lose their baby teeth, but infant cavities can be a severe problem. Children need their teeth to chew, speak, and smile. Baby teeth hold the space for permanent teeth. If your child loses a baby tooth too early, the adjacent teeth are more likely to tilt or drift into the space and create limited space in the jaw for the permanent tooth to erupt. If left untreated, the permanent tooth can become crowded or be blocked from erupting.

The first signs of Baby Bottle Tooth Decay are white spots on the smooth surfaces of the front teeth. If untreated, these white spots will quickly develop into tooth decay. Teeth that already have decay may appear brown or black. It most often occurs in the upper front teeth, but other teeth may also be affected.

Ways to prevent Baby Bottle Tooth Decay

  • Place only formula, milk, or breast milk in bottles.
  • Avoid filling bottles with sugar water, juice, or soft drinks.
  • If your child uses a pacifier, provide one that is clean; don’t dip it in sugar or honey.
  • Don’t put your child to sleep with a bottle of juice or milk. The sugar in the liquid will remain on your infant’s teeth for hours.
  • Don’t let your child walk around with a bottle of juice or milk.
  • Wipe the baby’s gums with a clean gauze pad or washcloth after each feeding.
  • Begin brushing your child’s teeth as soon as they grow. Brush gently with a child-size toothbrush and a small amount of fluoride toothpaste until age 3.
  • Floss your child’s teeth after all of them have grown in.
  • Encourage healthy eating habits, and limit sweets in general.
  • Schedule regular dental visits by your child’s first birthday.
