After extraction a gap develops between two teeth. it is necessary to fill the gap in between,if we do not fill that gap mesial inclination tends to happen in which posterior teeth tend to shift in extracted site by which occlusion get disturbed; contact of upper and lower teeth get distorted, because of that bad chewing habits happens such as cheek bite, lip biting etc
After extraction opposite tooth tend to get supraerupted, in which opposite tooth overgrows or comes out from its socket to fill gap of extracted site to meet opposite force to balance occlusion.
Slight bone loss tend to happen at extraction site but if we don’t replace it as soon as possible more bone loss takes place by mesial shifting or by occlusal forces . To compensate for that we have three majors –
- Removable partial denture
- Fixed partial denture (crown & bridge)
- Implants
In removable partial denture, a plate is made on which tooth is planted. It is made such that you can remove and insert as per your needs
Fixed partial denture (crown and bridge) is a fixed prosthesis which is made after root canal treatment or after extraction to fill the gaps produced at extracted site. Tooth structure is trimmed and a cap is made appropriately. In such prosthesis, slight bone lose may occur underneath.
Implants are fixed prosthesis which are used to maintain the integrity of bone and its shape especially in anterior region and to some extent bone loose can be prevented by these prosthesis
In our centre we render world class facilities. We maintain utmost care in following the sterilization protocols. Here, you will find various new technologies for filling extracted tooth gap. Dr Pankti Patel, our chief dentist has over of decade experience in dentistry. She is a cosmetic surgeon and has done her fellowship in laser dentistry from Germany.
