A protézis olyan esemény, amely komoly pénzügyi kiadásokkal jár. A híd vagy korona beszereléséhez a páciens elvárja, hogy a kialakítás kényelmes, szép és tartós legyen. Milyen csalódás, amikor elhagyja a klinikát, a legrosszabb kellemetlenséget érzi. Szó szerint néhány nap múlva a korona alatti fog fáj, és egy újabb hét múlva a híd kettétörik. Az ilyen helyzetet a színek megvastagodásának tekintik. Hogyan lehet ellene biztosítani, és mit tegyen, ha már megtörtént Önnel.

Immediately it is worth clarifying the following: the work of the prosthodontist and dental technician is not in the fact that the prosthesis is immediately comfortable, but in how you can get used to it. The area where the structure comes in contact with your gum will feel chafing at first. Prepare for the fact that it will take 1-2 adjustments of the…

Reading time ~ 6 min. Number of reads: 8387

You've taken a step toward beautiful, straight teeth - you've had a braces system put in. Proper post-installation braces care is now a must. Otherwise, having finished a long orthodontic treatment, after removing braces, you may notice white spots on the enamel or traces of progressive decay.

Preparing for braces

Reading time ~ 1 min Number of readings: 1820

Having braces installed means that there will be additional risk areas where bacteria will gather to "build" plaque. These are the nooks and crannies under the ligature, around the brackets, etc. Remember that poor hygiene is the first step to a long list of dental diseases, among which caries is hardly the most harmless.

Preparing for braces is a serious undertaking that includes the following procedures:

Panoramic radiograph; Hormone testing (if necessary); Treatment of any existing tooth and gum disease; Removal of tartar; Professional hygienic cleaning by a dentist; Remineralization or fluoridation (if necessary); Removal of "extra" teeth, often symmetrical (if necessary).

The last point is indicated in order to evenly place all the teeth on a short jaw, or to make the facial oval more beautiful and harmonious. In some cases, toot…

Dry hole after tooth extraction – symptoms and how to treat it

Tooth extraction is one of the most popular and simple operations in medicine. It usually goes without complications, but due to a number of common or subjective reasons, abnormalities may occur. One such postoperative complication is a dry hole.

The fact is that after extraction of the tooth, a cavity is formed in its place, which in a positive scenario is filled with a blood clot. It prevents the penetration of germs into the open wound and promotes its early healing. A dry hole after tooth extraction is the absence of the very blood clot in the cavity. This can happen for two reasons:

Dislocation or resorption. Heavy bleeding, as a result of which the clot was not able to form.

Whatever the cause, the healing process can take weeks and be accompanied by serious discomfort, which is not always possible to eliminate by their own efforts.

Symptomatology

Dry socket syndrome is very painful. It is quite easy to identify …

Rotten teeth – all about causes and treatment options

Statistics show that 98 percent of people are afraid of going to the dentist. As a result, dental problems are put off until one day we find out that a tooth has rotted away. Then a visit to the doctor is inevitable, but there is a lot of work to be done.

Contrary to popular belief, rotten teeth are not just the result of poor hygiene.

Causes of tooth rot

Yes, we all know that teeth should be brushed 2 times a day, flossed and visited the dentist 2 times a year. Many patients follow these recommendations and their teeth still deteriorate and rot. Poor hygiene is not the only reason why teeth deteriorate. There are other factors:

Gum disease triggers bacteria to multiply, which literally chews through enamel and destroys tooth tissue; genetics plays a role in the ability of teeth to resist pathogenic factors; unfavorable environmental conditions lead to more dental problems in industrial areas than in places without factories and mills…

Implantátum beültetés

Az implantáció az egyetlen olyan fogpótlási módszer, amely a teljes fog funkcionalitását helyreállítja, nem csak a korona részét. A fogászati implantátum egy biokompatibilis anyagból (titán és ötvözetei) készült többkomponensű szerkezet, amelyet az állcsontba helyeznek be a hiányzó fogegység pótlására. Teljes mértékben helyettesíti a természetes fogat, átvéve annak minden funkcióját. Aki implantátum beültetésére vállalkozik, azt általában érdekli, hogyan gyökerezik a fogászati implantátum, mennyi ideig tart, és milyen problémák merülhetnek fel.

A mesterséges gyökér életképessége nem csak attól függ, hogy milyen típusú, alakú és méretű gyökeret választunk az állcsont paraméterei szerint. Hanem az általános egészségi állapottól, az implantátum behelyezésének helyességétől, az orvos utasításainak betartásától a műtét utáni időszakban.

Mennyi ideig tart a fogászati implantátumok gyógyulása?

Az implantátum és a csont összeolvadásának folyamatát oszteointegrációnak nevezzük. Ez a következőképpen történik:

Gum shaper for implantation

Implant prosthetics is the most physiological way to restore missing teeth. The essence of the method is that an artificial tooth root is implanted into the gum, on top of which an orthopedic structure (crown, bridge) is placed. But in order to make the prosthetic system look natural, fit tightly to the gum, firmly fixed to the implant, special suprastructures are used - gum shaper and abutment.

The gum shaper is not always placed during implantation. It is not used in case of complete jaw adentia, when one-stage technologies with immediate loading with a prosthesis are used to restore the dentition. Installation of this suprastructure is necessary in a two-stage protocol. Without it, it is not possible to achieve a correct gingival contour so that the denture looks natural and aesthetic.

In one-stage techniques, the placement of this element is more often skipped. In these cases, one-piece implants are usually used, which are immedi…
