A root canal is a procedure that eliminates bacteria from an infected root canal, prevents reinfection, and saves the natural tooth. During the procedure, the pulp from the infected root canal is removed. Next, the inside of the tooth is cleaned and disinfected, then filled and sealed. It sounds more painful than it actually is.
When getting dentures, your dentist should talk to you about the different options you have. Dentures should fit securely, but they can become loose over time. Loose dentures can create sore spots, discomfort, and poor function, which can be frustrating and uncomfortable. If you’re worried about this happening to you, here’s how you can avoid these potential issues.
Dental crowns are snug “caps” that are placed over your tooth due to damaged teeth. The damaged tooth gets reshaped to fit the dental crown, which completely covers your tooth. Dental crowns can be made of different types of materials, such as ceramic.
Dental implants are a great way to replace your natural teeth while keeping the natural look and feel. Although they are implants, they still need to be properly taken care of, and that includes routine visits to your dentist. Natural teeth can get stains and be whitened, but what about implants?
