Discreet Options For Straightening Lower Front Teeth

Our case of the month for May 2015 involves teeth straightening of the lower front teeth. Crooked lower front teeth is a very common problem that affects many adults. In fact, there is a term for this as the teeth gradually become more and more crooked - 'late lower incisor crowding'. There are a number of reasons for straightening lower teeth: 

1. Cosmetic 

2. Improved hygiene - often plaque and calculus (hardened plaque) readily forms on the inside of lower front teeth 

3. Improved bite 

4. Prevent further movement 

Just have a look at our case below. He was originally told that one incisor tooth required removal. However, we managed to create a great result without removing any teeth.

Dental Implant Treament For A Premolar Tooth

Our case of the month for January is a dental implant case involving a premolar tooth. The tooth was lost due to infection around a failing root canal treatment. In most cases, the very best replacement for a tooth is a dental implant. After careful planning, a screw retained dental implant was placed. 

What is a screw retained dental implant? Well, here are the advantages: 

1. These types of crowns are screwed directly into the dental implant. 

2. There is NO cement. This is important as excess cement can lead to difficulty in cleaning and cause inflammation around the implant. 

3. The crown is 100% retrievable. This has a great advantages as if the crown needs to be removed for whatever reason, it is simply unscrewed. 

4. They still look natural and life like! Please look at the photos to view how a screw retained implant crown looks and works:
