Yes, there are several options to help patients with receding gums depending on the severity and paste of the problem. Your dentist estimates the progress of the recession and discusses treatment plans.

Depends on how long is the bridge . For an average 3-4 point bridge Zirconia all-ceramic bridge will be recommended.

Depending on where that "bump" is exactly in your mouth the diagnosis is vastly different. The best option is to schedule an appointment with a dentist to make sure just in case infection or cancer is diagnosed early.

As any virus Herpes Simple is highly contagious so sharing your personal belongings might lead to the spread that virus to you. As a human papilloma virus, it is highly facilitated to our tissues and the virus will stay within them for a lifetime.

Well done root canal treatment has a 98% chance tooth will stay lifetime. Crown is a necessary after procedure.

Absolutely.Crowns look and feel like a natural tooth and are very strong.

A little mobility of the removable partial denture is expected.If your denture moves a lot that means it has a problem with stability on the level of the base or the retention clasps. In that situation, you will need to go back to your dentist to help you solve this issue.

To make your denture fit better you will need to see your dentist. He/she will adjust your denture according to the problem it caused.You might need to adjust denture more than once. Usual time to get used to a new denture is approximately 2-3 weeks.

To just a name a few :
1. Chewing efficiency drops to about 40 % with upper and 20 % with lower denture
2. Denture might cause some sore spots that need to be adjusted especially at the beginning of the use .
3. Speech problems and excessive salivating also at the beginning of the wear
4. Lower full denture might not be stable without implant support due to smaller gum surface and tongue movements during chewing

With the rising popularity of clear aligners, white is always in style. For the metal brackets, you can choose a different color each month.

Uncomplicated Root canal treatment on the anterior tooth will take about 1 hour.

Loose dentures come from not fitting well just after insertion. In that case you have to talk to your dentist about doing a reline or sometimes even a new denture to fit more tightly. In case you had your denture for approximately 4 to 5 years you will need a new set since your gums have a tendency to shrink over time .

As with any surgical procedure minor swelling and discomfort is anticipated. During the implant placement patient is locally or generally anesthetized so they don’t feel pain . Minor pressure can still be felt during procedure if only local anesthesia was used. After implant surgery antibiotics are regularly prescribed for swelling and better healing of the site.

First set of dentures might take up to 10 days to adjust with a speech and salivation changes. Prolonged problems with” s “sound might point to a incorrect position of the front teeth in the the base of the denture.In this case contact your provider.

Maximum up to 2to 3 days just after insertion.

The amount of implants needed depends on the bone quality and proximity of the adjacent structures like the sinus, the nasal cavity, and the nerves as well as the type of restoration planned. As a rule, you will need more implants in the upper jaw than in the lower

Usually braces take between 1 to 3 years depending on the type of the malocclusion, patient’s age and cooperation.

Bleeding while using dentures is not common. The best solution is to see your dentist and talk about this problem. Often small denture adjustments done in the office will solve the problem. Usually, the problem lies in dentures not fitting well. It could be that you will need a new better fitting denture.

Yes, but your gum recession will need to be consulted first. A larger area or faster-receding gums might require a gum graft prior to the aesthetic procedure.

No toothpaste contains (depending on the brand) different sizes of abrasive particles. Those particles will micro scratch your aligner making it cloudy, and prone to discoloration and stench. There are other products on the market intended for aligner hygiene.
