Causes Of Diastema (Teeth Gap)

Diastema happens due to the unequal relationship between the size of the teeth and the jaw. A midline diastema can be caused by a large labial frenum. The frenum is the tissue that connects your lips and gum. When labial frenum, is too large, too wide or too tight, it can cause a diastema between your two front teeth.

Treatments For Diastema (Teeth Gap)

Depending on the teeth and the size of the gap there are different solutions.
For a minor gap, the easiest fix would be a regular retainer. This will put the teeth together within a week or two. This works for the patient who had treatment before. These are for very minor gaps.
Dental Braces
For a major gap, the teeth have to be pulled closer by means of braces. The teeth are brought inward to cover the gap. This is a time-consuming procedure as it requires routine check-up to observe the progress of the teeth. It is done in stages.

Bid Farewell to Yellow Teeth with Teeth Whitening Treatments

Yellow teeth look attractive on none. A common issue among people, these yellow tinged teeth hampers the beauty of our smile. Teeth whitening, a vital part of cosmetic dentistry offers an effective solution to this issue. This method is apt for those who have natural, healthy teeth and gums that has not been subjected to any dental treatments like filling or dental restoration.

teeth-whitening-in-chennai

The main concept of Teeth Whitening technique is to remove the stains and discoloration on teeth due to our food habits or some medical conditions. There are many products available in the market for teeth whitening but their effectiveness is highly dependent on the intensity of the discoloration.

Whitening toothpaste and mouth washes contain small doses of abrasives that help remove stains. Many of the whitening toothpastes contain hydrogen peroxide and carbamide peroxide. Though they help in removing stains they do not contribute much in whitening as they do not contain bleaching agents.

Teeth Whitening Procedures

Teeth whitening can be done at home with over the counter products like whitening strips and gels but their effectiveness is limited to stain removal, that too temporary. In mild cases of discoloration, these would suffice but in severe cases, treatments from a qualified dental consultant can bring surprising results.

Tray based teeth whitening – this is done by placing a tray like mouth guard in the mouth filled with whitening solution for a time ranging from a few hours to a whole night for a few days depending on the rate of discoloration.

In- office teeth whitening – this technique involves, direct application of the bleaching product to the teeth. With a treatment of half an hour to one hour, the results can be visible. This needs to be done for a few sittings in cases of very severe discoloration.

Age, allergies, physical and medical conditions of the patient are considered before administering a whitening treatment. The cost of the treatment depends on the treatment procedure opted. In-office whitening is the costliest of the lot.

Thangam’s Dental Clinic is a multi-specialty dental clinic based in Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India offering the latest dental treatments in orthodontics, endodontics, cosmetic dentistry and dental restoration.

The method of treatment is almost the same as with a conventional drill except that once a hole has been made in the crown; longer tips are placed on the laser head in order to allow the dentist to reach down into the roots to remove all of the pulp material. For this, parallel beam of intense light is used to clean out the root canals. Laser therapy melts away debris consisting of bacteria and infection, known as the smear layer of the root, and cleans the root more thoroughly than traditional treatments. On completion a temporary and then permanent crown are likewise prepared and placed.

Diastema Closure Technique Chennai

 

A diastema is a space between front teeth. Diastemas are closed by orthodontics or restoration. A highly successful technique is addition of composite.

Image

 

A space which is too large and closed with composite results in teeth that are esthetically too wide and orthodontics is recommended. Space closure requires placement of composite two adjacent teeth. Placement of composite onto one tooth can be done it proper tooth dimensions allow it.

Symptoms:

A diastema that occurs because of a mismatch between the teeth and the jaw does not have symptoms. However, spaces caused by a tongue thrust habit or periodontal disease will tend to expand or grow with time. The teeth may become loose, and discomfort or pain may occur, particularly during biting or chewing.

 Procedure:

Dentists use the term “diastema” to refer to a space (gap) that lies between two teeth. Tooth bonding provides one way a dentist can “close” (fill in) a diastema. It can be placed on the two teeth that lie on each side of the gap so to reduce the gap’s overall width.

Image

Depending on its size, a dentist and patient might decide to fill their’s in all of the way, or just partially.

A diastema that takes place because of a mismatch between the teeth and the jaw does not have symptoms. If you have a space because you are missing teeth, you might need more extensive dental repair. This might include dental implants, a bridge or a partial denture.

Speaking of jaw irregularities, unequal jaw growth will prompt dentists to suggest oral surgery. When the upper and lower jaws do not grow equally, speaking, breathing, eating and swallowing problems can result. If braces or other orthodontic appliances do not work to correct these jaw problems or if the dentist does not believe that these appliances will be the right solution for a specific patient then oral surgery will be the best recommended procedure.

Different Types of Dental Crowns in India

A dental crown is a tooth-shaped cap that is placed over a tooth. It covers the tooth to restore its shape and size, strength and to improve its appearance. Depending on your habits and the condition of your gums, there can be some drawbacks. Dental crowns cover the entire visible surface area of an affected tooth and add strength, durability, and stability to the tooth. Approximately 85% of dental crowns and bridges are metal-based and 15% ceramic-based.

For more details visit us: http://www.thangamsdentalclinic.org/Dental-Crowns.php

 

 

There are various situations that would require the placement of a crown, such as root canals, lost fillings, dental bridges, decay below a filling, and chipping and cracking of tooth enamel. The cracking or breakage of teeth can be caused by age, tooth decay, fillings and an improper bite.

 

 

A dental crown may be needed to:

  • To protect a weak tooth (eg, from decay) from breaking or to hold together parts of a cracked tooth
  • To cover and support a tooth with a large filling when there isn’t a lot of teeth left
  • To Support a tooth that has been badly damaged by tooth decay
  • To cover a dental implant
  • To Protect a worn tooth
  • To cover misshaped or severely discolored teeth
  • To hold a dental bridge in place
  • To cover a tooth that has been endodontically treated (had a root canal)

The Dental Crown Procedure

Depending on the extent of the decay or damage to the tooth, the dentist may perform a root canal before placing a crown on the tooth. If this is the case, the dentist may need to build a foundation for the crown after the root canal has been performed, also known as a “post-and-core” foundation.

Before the crown can be placed on the tooth, the dentist must file the tooth down to make room for it. Then an impression of the tooth and the surrounding teeth will be made. While the crown is being created, a temporary acrylic crown will be placed on the tooth.

When the permanent crowns are ready, the temporary crowns are replaced at a separate visit. The crown will last anywhere from seven to 40 years.

 

 

The followings are the Different types of Dental Crowns

  • Ceramic Crown
  • Metal Crowns
  • Porcelain fused to metal
  • Gold Crowns
  • Composite Crowns

Some problems occur with dental crowns that are the following

Cosmetic Dental Implants in India

A dental implant is a “root” device, usually made of titanium, used in dentistry to support restorations that resemble a tooth or group of teeth to replace missing teeth. It can be used to support a number of dental prostheses, including crowns, implant-supported bridges or dentures. They can also be used as anchorage for orthodontic tooth movement. The use of dental implants permits undirectional tooth movement without reciprocal action.

Dental implants are made of a variety of materials, such as titanium, aluminum oxide and surgical stainless steel. The devices are firmly attached to the jaw bone through surgery and implant posts provide a comfortable, stable support on which artificial teeth can be secured.

There are two basic categories of implants:

1) An Endosteal implant is placed directly into the bone, like natural tooth roots and can be used for many purposes. A single pin can be inserted through an existing tooth to strengthen and stabilize it. Other styles can provide an anchor for one or more artificial teeth.

2) A Subperiosteal implant consists of a metal frame that is fitted onto the jawbone just below the gum tissue. As the gums heal, the frame becomes fixed to the jawbone. Posts, which are attached to the frame, protrude through the gums. As with Endosteal implants, artificial teeth are then mounted to the posts.

The main advantages of Dental Implants are:

  1. Implants restore proper chewing function and so you can enjoy foods previously too “difficult” to eat.
  2. You feel confident that your replacement teeth won’t move or loosen.
  3. You regain the closest thing to the look, feel and function of your natural teeth.
  4. Forget about unsightly partial denture clasps which place damaging pressure on remaining natural teeth.
  5. Eliminate irritated and painful gums.
  6. Improve your speech by eliminating or reducing the “fullness” of full or partial dentures.
  7. Replace missing teeth with the look and feel of natural teeth without having to “cut down” healthy teeth.
  8. Dental implants help stop the progressive bone loss and shrinkage of your jawbone by “mimicking” the roots of natural teeth.
  9. Dental implants are clinically proven with a success rate in excess of 90%.
