Are You Embarrassed By Your Dentures?

Non-fixed dentures can begin to ruin your social life. Do you feel embarrassed when you go out to eat? Not sure if they are going to fall out during dessert or when you are walking to your car?

Do you hide your smile or shy away from social situations because of your dentures? Well now is your time to take back your life and get back in the game. Don’t let non-fixed dentures control your life. You have an option.

Fixed dentures can provide you with an amazing smile that you will feel comfortable sharing with the world. They are secured to implants into your jaw bone so that when you smile they stay comfortably in place. No more worrying about eating steak, or other harder foods, because fixed dentures will stay in place and keep your smile looking healthy.

Fixed dentures remove the pressure from your gums and instead help to strengthen them. With non-fixed dentures they constantly push down on your gums causing bone damage over time, while fixed dentures are supported by implants in the jaw bone and will help to stimulate bone growth.

Fixed dentures can improve your health. Over time non-fixed dentures can cause you to not consume essential food that helps keep you healthy. Fixed dentures allow you to enjoy the foods you once loved.

Do You Have Sensitive Teeth?

Sensitive teeth may not be just something you have to live with. There are different causes of sensitive teeth and Dr. Judy Strutz and her team can help evaluate what the root cause of the problem is in order to help you come up with a solution that saves you from pain.  Usually sensitivity or pain comes after you have consumed something hot, cold, sweet or acidic. Each of these things can cause a continual problem if you are trying to consume a variety of food and enjoy your life.

Consuming high acidic beverages, gum recession, and brushing incorrectly are just a few of the reasons why sensitivity may occur. After time, the dentin on the front of the teeth begins to wear down. Once this has worn down, because the dentin contains a large number of pores, it may begin to cause sensitivity. You do have options. Veeners and crowns are a great way to decrease sensitivity while keeping your natural smile intact.

Veneers and crowns both fit over natural teeth. They are shaped and colored to match the rest of your teeth. Once they are placed you are able to eat and consume any food or drinks that you would naturally.

Get The Facts About Dental Crowns

Dental crowns are essential for a variety of reasons. Get the facts on how and why dental crowns can help improve your smile. If a tooth needs strengthening a dental crown is an excellent way to improve the tooth’s structure and retain function. A crown provides a stable chewing surface and when a tooth is injured, broken or cracking, can help prevent it from needing to be extracted.

 

A dental crown is a cover that fits over the tooth. This helps to allow you to consume food you used to enjoy, but may not have been able to eat due to dental pain. They are extremely durable and allow you to protect the tooth’s structure.

Dental crowns used to only be made of metal. Now patients are fortunate enough to have options when it comes to the type of crown they can get. Crowns can be made of porcelain – a material that will match the color of the rest of your teeth. A dental crown can last a long time. When they are taken care of, crowns may not need to be replaced for years to come. Once the crown is placed you are able to eat and consume food that you used to love and enjoy.
