  • Brochure We Would Like to Address the Most Common of These
    Scan me! Patient information Q&A on dental implants Scan me! "Naturally white implants" Dear Patients, There are many reasons for tooth loss, but whatever the cause, your quality of life is impaired. Impaired chewing and speech frequently occurs, especially when more than one tooth is lost. Constant bone degeneration of the jaw can also cause lasting problems.1 Implants as tooth root replacements can be the ideal solu- tion in this case. They can replace individual teeth, restore a set of teeth and bridges and serve as a basis for fixed dentition or a removable denture. For many years the use of dental implants has been a re- liable treatment method and is scientifically recognised.2 As every person, every patient is unique, there are a whole host of questions that arise. In this brochure we would like to address the most common of these. The brochure has been developed in collaboration with dentists with many years of experience in dental implantology. 3 Preface 4 Tooth loss – now what? 5 What are dental implants?

  • TOOTH SUPPORTED CROWN a Tooth Supported Crown Is a Dental Restoration That Covers up Or Caps a Tooth
    TOOTH SUPPORTED CROWN A tooth supported crown is a dental restoration that covers up or caps a tooth. It is cemented into place and cannot be taken out. Frequently Asked Questions 1. What materials are in a Tooth Supported Crown? Crowns are made of three types of materials: • Porcelain - most like a natural tooth in color • Gold Alloy - strongest and most conservative in its preparation • Porcelain fused to an inner core of gold alloy (Porcelain Fused to Metal or “PFM”) - combines strength and aesthetics 2. What are the benefits of having a Tooth Supported Crown? Crowns restore a tooth to its natural size, shape and—if using porce lain—color. They improve the strength, function and appearance of a broken down tooth that may otherwise be lost. They may also be designed to decrease the risk of root decay. 3. What are the risks of having a Tooth Supported Crown? In having a crown, some inherent risks exist both to the tooth and to the crown Porcelain crowns build back smile itself. The risks to the tooth are: • Preparation for a crown weakens tooth structure and permanently alters the tooth underneath the crown • Preparing for and placing a crown can irritate the tooth and cause “post- operative” sensitivity, which may last up to 3 months • The tooth underneath the crown may need a root canal treatment about 6% of the time during the lifetime of the tooth • If the cement seal at the edge of the crown is lost, decay may form at the juncture of the crown and tooth The risks to the crown are: • Porcelain may chip and metal may wear over time • If the tooth needs a root canal treatment after the crown is permanently cemented, the procedure may fracture the crown and the crown may need to be replaced.

  • Restoring Your Smile with Dental Implants
    Restoring Your Smile With Dental Implants A healthy and beautiful smile is not only an attractive asset, it is essential to our overall well- being. This is why it is important to take care of your teeth and to see your dentist for routine care. Should you have the misfortune of losing a tooth due to trauma, dental decay, or gum disease it is important that you seek treatment to replace the tooth as soon as possible. Fortunately modern dentistry offers remarkable solutions for maintaining and restoring smiles. One of the most significant dental innovations in recent times has been the development of an artificial tooth root that can be placed into the jaw where a tooth is missing. Known as a dental implant this restoration can support a new crown, a bridge, or stabilize a denture. While dental implants have been around for decades recent advances in dental technology and materials have significantly improved the success rate and availability of this treatment option. Dental implants offer many advantages over the more traditional methods for replacing missing teeth. First and foremost, among the benefits of a dental implant is that it comes the closest of all of the restorative choices to replicating the look, feel and function of a natural tooth. Furthermore, it is the only method of tooth replacement that does not require the involvement or preparation of the adjacent teeth. A dental implant also stimulates bone remodeling to prevent shrinkage in areas where teeth are missing and helps to restore facial contours in areas where significant bone loss has occurred.

  • Jupiter Patients Ask, "What Are All-‐On-‐ 4® Dental Implants?"
    Jupiter patients ask, "What are All-on- 4® dental implants?" Patients who are dealing with the loss of their teeth may find the experience daunting. Tooth loss is caused by many factors, including gum disease, inadequate dental care and oral hygiene, certain health conditions, tobacco use, age, and genetics. At Burman Dental, L.L.C., serving Jupiter, Tequesta, Palm Gardens, Juno Beach, and nearby neighborhoods in Florida, Dr. Steven A. Burman is a leading dentist in the area of cosmetic and restorative dentistry. Dr. Burman offers several solutions to restore the smiles of patients who have lost some or all of their teeth, such as: • Dental implants - titanium posts replace the root of the tooth and fuse naturally to the jawbone over several weeks for stability, durability, and enhanced function. Once healed, the post is extended and topped with a porcelain crown. In addition to the cosmetic benefits, implants also provide healthy structure for the surrounding natural teeth. • Dentures - removable false teeth that replace either an entire arch of teeth, or a series of teeth. Dentures sit on top of the gums and they help to fill out the face and lips and enhance eating and speaking for individuals missing teeth. Immediate dentures are placed at the time that teeth are removed; a conventional denture is placed in the mouth approximately one month after the removed teeth have healed. • Crowns and bridges - fill gaps of an absent tooth or several missing teeth; crowns may also be attached to healthy teeth to secure a dental bridge. The options for dental restoration after tooth loss vary, depending upon several criteria such as the severity of the condition and the strength of the bone.
