MDI
There are a couple of options when it comes to a comfortable denture. Porcelain and plastic dentures are very comparable in durability, esthetics, wear, and cost. After meeting with us you will know which type of denture is right for you. If your mouth has insufficient bone structure, however, wearing dentures will be more difficult. Mini Dental Implants may be advisable in this case. These implants are placed directly in the jawbone and hold the denture in place with precision attachments.

Dentures
A denture is a removable replacement for missing teeth. It is made of an acrylic resin, sometimes in combination with various metal alloys, and is constructed to replace missing teeth supported by surrounding soft and hard tissues of the oral cavity. While conventional dentures are removable, there are many different types of denture, some which depend on bonding or snapping onto teeth or dental implants, as in the case of bridge work or mini dental implants. Whether you receive a partial denture or a complete denture you will notice improvement in your overall appearance and lifestyle.

Periodontal (Gum) Disease
Gum disease is the leading cause of tooth loss in adults. If gingivitis is left untreated, it can advance to periodontitis (gum disease), causing the inner layer of the gum and bone to pull away from the teeth and form pockets that collect debris. The resulting infection causes the bone and connective tissue that hold the teeth in place to break down. These problems can cause a wide range of oral health issues such as loose teeth and tooth loss.
Periodontal diseases are usually classified according to
their severity: initial, moderate, and advanced. These stages range
from mild gingivitis (swelling and inflammation), to more severe
periodontitis (odor-causing bacteria and infection), and finally acute
necrotizing ulcerative gingivitis, a severe disease of the mouth which
can be life threatening.

Infection Control/Patient Safety
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is the lead federal agency for disease prevention and control in the United States. In 1994, the CDC updated their guidelines regarding infection control and patient safety for dental health care settings. We take our patients' health and safety very seriously. That's why we follow all the CDC infection prevention and control guidelines when it comes to protecting our patients' health. As new dental technologies emerge, we have made a commitment to continuing our education to ensure we are maintaining federal health standards as well as put you, our valued patient, at ease.
