Tooth Knocked Out

Tuesday, March 17th, 2009

It is distressing when a tooth is lost through dental disease or an accident but even more so when due to an assault.

We recently saw a patient who had some teeth knocked out during an attack.

We have carefully and quickly made some temporary teeth and eventually the patient will have two dental implants to restore his previous function and appearance.

If a tooth is knocked out it is sometimes possible to put the same tooth back but ideally you should see your dentist within one hour of the accident or assault.

If a tooth is permanenetly lost dental implants will usually re-create your smile on a permanent basis.

Here at the Coventry Centre for Advanced Dentistry we deal with the aftermath of a number of such incidents and if you need any help please call us for a  free consultation on 024 76454350.

Loose Dentures

Wednesday, March 11th, 2009

Do you have loose dentures which are constantly moving and causing you embarrassment?  Do you have difficulty in chewing food because your dentures are so loose?

Here at the Coventry Centre for Advanced Dentistry we are able to solve these problems quickly.

In some cases all that is required is the manufacture of a new denture in the form of either a cosmetic flexible denture or a cosmetic metal denture.  These cosmetic dentures are extremely well fitting and look very natural.

In other cases we can place dental implants and either replace the denture with fixed bridges or secure the existing loose dentures with special attachments onto the implants.

For loose lower dentures we can use mini implants to secure them and this can be carried out in as little as an hour!

Loose Teeth? Dental Implants are the answer!

Tuesday, March 10th, 2009

Having loose or missing teeth really affects your confidence and can also inhibit your ability to chew.

Dental implants provide a fixed way of solving these problems as well as giving you the beautiful smile you never thought possible.

Yesterday we placed dental implants  for a patient who will soon have the confidence to eat what they wish without embarrassment – an apple or even steak!   The patient will also be able to smile without covering their mouth with their hand.

If you are embarrassed by loose or missing teeth or poorly fitting dentures and feel that nothing can be done for you then please give us a call and book a free consultation with Dr Jag Shergill on 024 76454350.

We regularly see patients who have given up hope and we have been able to restore their confidence with Dental Implants.

What is a dental Implant?

Monday, March 2nd, 2009

A dental implant is typically  a small screw inserted into the jaw bone to replace a missing tooth.  This tooth can look and feel and perform like a natural tooth.   They can be used to replace a single or several missing teeth.  Patients are often surprised as to how painless this procedure is.  If you have any questions and are  interested in dental implants contact us for a free consultation with our experienced qualified Implantologist, Dr Jag Shergill and his team.
