Dental Implants Without Bone Grafting

Advantages Of Dental Implants Without Bone Grafting:

• they can be applied where very little vertical bone is present
• there are no difficult or impossible cases
• they can be loaded into position immediately after tooth extraction
• this technique can be used over 99% of the patients
• 72 hour after implant placement patients can get new fixed bridge construction
• they have lower potential risk than conventional implantology

Tooth implants are fixed titanium posts that act as teeth roots and are used to permanently replace missing teeth. They are the new leading standard for replacing the loss of teeth. Dental implants are root-form endosseous implants which substitute original teeth root. While high-tech in nature, dental implants are actually more tooth-saving than traditional bridgework, since implants do not rely on neighbouring teeth for support.

How Are IHDE Dental Implant Systems Different?

The IHDE Implant System is result of many years' experience in dental implantology and prosthodontics with the most advanced manufacturing technology based on the latest scientific know-how. This concentrated knowledge allows IHDE patients to get back their former strength and charm, and returns their smile.

Basal implants, were developed additionally and primarily for use in the atrophied jawbone. They can be applied where very little vertical bone is present, while the supply of horizontal bone is still sufficient, even if these quantities are not contiguous. There are no difficult or impossible cases for implantologists familiar with basal implants, and their use leads in all cases straight forward to the desired treatment result.

Immediate Loading System Advantages?

IHDE Dental implants can be loaded into position immediately after tooth extraction and can form units with other type of implants, or with other teeth that allow it. The result is a very stable construction, which can be safely placed immediately by surgeon and which satisfies high aesthetic standards.

This technique can be used over 99% of the patients. Usually 72 hour after implant placement they can get new fixed bridge construction. The special feature of the IHDE Implant System is bicortical anchoring in the most solid part of the bone. This provides an ideal fit to make your dental implant as secure as possible.

Quick Treatment And Less Discomfort

Treatment with IHDE Implants is done under local anesthesia and causes much less discomfort than a tooth extraction.Furthermore, the ease of use of the IHDE Implant system offers clear advantages to both you and your dentist.

Everyone is different and the IHDE Implant System takes this fully into account. Thanks to advanced standards, you can trust IHDE Implants regardless of your age or condition. IHDEImplants are an ideal choice, even for people in their later years. Ask your dental specialist about the possibilities available to you

Dental Implants

• Losing one or more teeth is stressful for everyone as It makes difficult to chew and uncomfortable to eat. People feel embarrassed to smile and the bad mood becomes permanent due to the lack of comfort. Unfortunately, the traditional tooth replacement procedures do not solve all the problems. In this case, tooth implantation is the best solution.

  Dental Implants | The Perfect Clinical Technique

  Tooth implantation today is a clinically proven, science based and 100% accepted procedure. We can say that implant has become a dominant part of dentistry. Thanks to the quality of implant materials and refined surgical technique, now implantation is a routine procedure in functional and aesthetic restoration of teeth. Missing teeth are replaced with artificial tooth roots called dental implants. The properties of the implants are perfectly identical to the original teeth, just as strong, well-used and aesthetic.

  Dental Implants | Tooth Root Made Of A Bio-material

  An artificial tooth root made of a bio-material is placed in the socket of the lost teeth to carry a replacement. Of course, the implantation has to be preceded by thorough preparations and careful planning. The material of dental implant is generally pure, unalloyed titanium, which is completely non-allergenic.

  Dental Implantation | Preliminary Examination

  The tooth implantation is preceded by preliminary detailed consultation and dental examination in all cases. First a panoramic x-ray is required then the doctor performs a full oral examination (which teeth must be substituted, if the jaw is suitable for receiving the implants). This is followed by checking the available bone density if that is sufficient for implants. If bone volume or density is inadequate, a bone graft procedure must be considered. Finally, the patient's general-health-status assessment is carried out.

  Dental Implants | Treatment Planning

  If all the necessary examination has been done and the implantation has been found safe and feasible, the reconstruction can be carried out. It starts with defining the number and size of the implants. The next phase is the consultation with the patient about the temporary replacement during the healing period and the expected costs of tooth substitution then we make a schedule for the treatments.

  Dental Implants | Procedure

  After the treatment plan and the date of the surgery have been accepted, the intervention can begin. The implantation is always carried out under sterile conditions with local anesthesia.

  After the local anesthesia a small incision is made on the mucous membrane and the implant is embedded by means of a gradual surgical bone-drill.

  The implant is screwed into the place prepared then the mucous membrane is closed over the implant. After the surgery a panoramic x-ray is made to make sure that the intervention was successful. The stitches will be removed one week after the implantation and the inserted implant is healing under the protection of mucosa.

  Dental Implant | Loadability

  During the healing period, lasts usually about 3 months, bone cells grow into the micro-pores created on the surface of the implant. This process is called osseointegration that makes the implants to be fixed in the jaw and become able to support a normal biting load.

  After the healing period the next step is the preparation of the tooth replacing. First the implant osseointegrated under the gum has to be explored with a small incision on the mucous membrane. It doesn't mean another operation. There is a healing screw inserted into the implant that the dentist has to set free to make place for the abutment. Abutment is a small post that is fitted into the implant in order to retain the replacement. In 8-10 days the gum heals around the abutment and form a collar through which the dentist can prepare the tooth replacement.

  Following this, after taking the impression, the prosthesis is prepared in the dental laboratory. Finally, the dentist inserts the implant-prosthesis.

  With the insertion of the prosthesis, the dentist has completed his work, but the long-term success of dental implantation is highly dependent on the observance of proper oral hygiene and regular dental control which is required annually following tooth implantation. During the annual control the dentist check up the tooth replacement, the status of the bone and the epithelial cuff around the implant. If it's necessary he makes some corrections.

  Dental Implants | Benefits

  • if there are only short gaps inline: adjacent healthy teeth do not need to be grinded down
  • in case of losing molar teeth, It is also possible to make fixed replacement that result in stability and better chewing ability in addition to perfect aesthetic appearance
  • it is also suitable in case of complete tooth loss as implants can be used a kind of pillar in many ways to support and retain the prosthesis

  Dental Implants | Recommended For Everyone?

  • if there is no exclusion criteria
  • if you want to save the adjacent, healthy teeth from grinding
  • if you'd like to have a fixed prosthesis instead of removable dentures

  Dental Implants | Terms

  • sufficient amount of bone
  • good general health
  • perfect oral hygiene

  Dental Implants | Allergies, Cancer Lesions

  As already explained in detail above, dental implants are made of pure titanium, which has a unique biological properties so the bone is fully able to integrate with it. Numerous scientific researches demonstrate that its titanium oxide surface does not generate any allergic reactions or cancer lesions. It does not dissolve in body fluids and thus does not react with the immune system. For this reason, as well as the perfect implantation technique and professional surface characteristics, there is life-long warranty on it.

  Dental Implants | Immediately

  We provide immediate tooth implantation in our clinic. It means that implantation is carried out right after the tooth extraction.

  Immediate implants are required when the problematic tooth belongs to a conspicuous place in the "smile zone" and it cannot be saved. In this case the patients' first question is for how long it will remain without replacement.

  The replacement of missing teeth requires a very careful way of planning in this area. In every case, tooth extractions triggers bone decomposition and cause gum recession. All of these injurious effects can be avoid and reduced with immediate implantation.

  Immediate Dental Implants | Procedure

  If implantation has carried out right after tooth extraction the round gum contour fully remain and bone resorption can be prevented because bone tissue regeneration begins immediately between the tooth socket and the implant.

  In order to preserve the gum contour, it is necessary to insert a so-called healing screw. If the integrated implant has adequate stability a temporary abutment and crown can be made. After the complete osseointegration (It takes 3-4 months in case of immediate implantation) tooth implants are loadable and the final abutment and crown are prepared.

  Nowadays not only completely metal-free crowns are made, but in order to achieve the perfect aesthetics result, the implant abutment can be made of metal-free zirconium-oxide as well.

Ultrasonic Scaling - Tartar Removal
 

• Dental Centre | High Technology Dental Equipment, Excellent Professional Standard

  Come still in time and do not forget about the regular control examinations, minimum twice a year.

  Our dental clinic guarantees that our dental team working at the highest professional standard will discern all your dental problems and treat them by means of the state-of-the-art equipment.

  Scaling | Tartar, The Cause Of The Periodontal Disease

  Tartar is both the cause of the periodontal disease, which – in our country – counts as a widespread disease, and the spawn of bacteria; tartar may cause not only a bad breath but also the loosening and loss of the otherwise healthy teeth. So, scaling is not only important from the aesthetic aspect but also for preserving your teeth. It is also important to know that tartar is not always visible.

  The irritation caused by tartar, the inflammation and bleeding of the gums or the bad breath caused by the bacteria settled in the tartar will cease after the scaling treatment. You can read more about the formation and consequences of tartar at the bottom of the page.

  If You have experienced any of the following symptoms, you should pay a visit to us by all means:

  • bad breath
  • deposits, discolouration at the root of the tooth (especially inside)
  • bleeding gums (especially while cleaning the teeth)
  • paradentities, inflammation of the gums, sensitive gums
  • periodontitis
  • loosened teeth
  • irritation caused by dental prosthesis 

  Get rid of the tartar and deposits in a painless manner, before they would cause more serious trouble.

  Scaling | Tartar Removal Short History

  The old, manual depulators, that is tartar splitting off devices meant the only solution for removing the tartar before the appearance of the ultrasonic scaling devices. Their most serious disadvantage was that they were only suitable for removing the rougher, larger pieces of tartar.

  With using these devices the chances to injure the gums were high, which increased the possible formation of gum inflammation, not to mention the fact that the subsequent final polishing of the dental neck-dental root surfaces treated during scaling was not possible with these scaling devices. Consequently, the repeated deposition of tartar was faster, too. These scaling devices are not used any more, the ultrasonic scaling devices replaced them in the dental surgeries.

  Ultrasonic Scaling | Tartar Removal In Practice

  During the ultrasonic scaling performed in the dental surgery we scrupulously remove the tartar using ultrasound. Ultrasonic scaling can excellently be used for removing even the tiniest deposits in a manner which during scaling does not affect the dental enamel adversely, since its material is much harder than tartar. By means of fine tips of the device used for ultrasonic scaling we can even reach the deeper sections of the gingival pocket without injuring the gum even by chance.

  Ultrasonic Scaling | Sensitivity After Tartar Removal

  During ultrasonic scaling dental neck sensitivity, sometimes a slight pain may occur, since the scaling treatment especially concerns the areas where the tartar pressed down the gums, making the dental neck and root surfaces sensitive by this. Sensitivity after tartar removal is different for each patient. There are patients who do not feel anything, others only report on slight sensitivity or feeling cold, while there are those, who need an anaesthetic for the scaling treatment.

  Scaling Treatment | Tartar Removal By A Dental Hygienist

  Our assistants with a dental hygienic qualification perform the ultrasonic scaling treatments in the simple cases when scaling does not require a serious intervention by a dentist. If we perform the scaling treatment with an anaesthetic, you can rely on our professionally highly qualified dentists, so that scaling can be painless for everyone.

  The advantage of the anaesthetic during the ultrasonic scaling treatment is that it is painless, however, its disadvantage is that scaling cannot be completed for all the teeth in one treatment, as all the teeth cannot be anaesthetised.

  After The Ultrasonic Scaling | Salt Polishing

  The finishing operation of the ultrasonic scaling treatment is the Air-Brush salt polishing, by which even the narrow distances between the teeth can be finished most finely, in addition to having a whitening effect.

  Ultrasonic Scaling | Summary

  During the ultrasonic scaling treatment the ultrasonic device removes the deposited plaque, discolouration and tartar from the tooth surface, while it washes and cools the teeth with water. The volume of tartar accumulation is different for each person, so the scaling treatment should be repeated at the interval recommended by our dentists. It is generally timely twice a year, which just coincides with the date of the otherwise also necessary dental control examinations.

  Do not forget! 
  Tartar is both the cause of the periodontal disease, which counts as a widespread disease, and the spawn of bacteria; tartar may cause not only a bad breath but also the loosening and loss of the otherwise healthy teeth. So, scaling is not only important from the aesthetic aspect but also for preserving your teeth.

Periodontitis

• Our patients often visit our dental surgery with gum problems. The recession of the gums, that is periodontal disease has already become widespread by now.

  Our patients turn to us with the following periodontal problems:

  • inflamed gums, bleeding after cleaning the teeth
  • bad breath
  • moving or moveable teeth
  • teeth 'migrated' from their original location

  Periodontitis | Causes For Development

  Periodontitis is mainly caused by the following:

  • not removed plaque, dental deposit
  • not properly closing fillings or artificial crowns
  • high fillings, artificial crowns
  • irregularly positioned teeth
  • diabetes
  • smoking

  Periodontitis | Prevention

  • by regular dental control examinations twice a year
  • by acquiring and applying the proper oral hygienic habits (see: dental hygiene, tooth cosmetics)
  • if necessary by scaling, replacing the fillings, artificial crowns, tooth straightening, avoiding smoking

  Why Is It Necessary To Discover And Treat Periodontitis?

  • the long lasting inflammation destroys the supporting structure of the teeth, which may lead to loosening or even losing teeth 
  • the chronic inflammation means a burden for the body as a focus and can become the source of further diseases (e.g.: endocarditis, articular complaints, dermatological diseases, it may worsen an existing diabetes, it may lead to premature birth)

  How Can The Already Developed Periodontitis Be Cured?

  • the dentist determines the severity of the Periodontitis by examining the condition of the gums and the periodontium
  • identifies the exiting agents
  • shows and teaches the perfect oral hygiene
  • eliminates the factors facilitating the deposition of plaque (scaling, tooth polishing, replacing the improper fillings, dentures, adjusting their height, tooth straightening)
  • the application of antiseptic solutions
  • regular, practical control examinations
  • surgical intervention, if necessary

  The moving teeth can be stabilised by putting up different dental SPLINTS. We can connect these teeth together with bridges or we can fix ribbons developed especially for this purpose on the internal surface of the teeth concerned. Splinting is an aesthetic, easy to clean solution, by means of which we can durably protect the periodontium.

  The periodontal complaints arising at the patients can generally be stopped by means of 1-1 more thorough cleaning treatments and acquiring and using the proper oral hygiene habits at home. The regular dental control, which often becomes due once in a month or two, also contributes to the quick and long lasting result.

  Periodontitis | Recession Of The Gums

  The first and most important thing to know is that gingivitis leads to periodontitis and sooner or later to losing the teeth!

  Gingivitis And Periodontitis | 90% Of Adults Suffer From This

  The most frequent disease of the gums and the periodontal tissues is the inflammation of the gums (gingivitis) or periodontitis, which concerns 90% of the adult population, and which is primarily caused by insufficient oral hygiene.

  Gingivitis can cause serious diseases, such as periodontal disease, which means the inflammation of the periodontium, or periodontitis, which means the recession of the gums, so gingivitis has to be cured by all means.

  The symptom attached to the recession of the gums is that the fixation of the teeth to the jaw becomes looser, which leads to the continuous shrinking of the gums from the dental neck, and after a certain time to the loosening of the teeth, which we can even lose easily.

  Gingivitis | Proliferating Bacteria

  The bacteria considerably proliferating are responsible for the development of gingivitis. These bacteria form a so-called plaque on the teeth, which, unless thoroughly removed from the surface of the teeth, simply hardens and the dental deposit forms.

  Gingivitis is caused by the common detrimental effect of the bacteria and the dental deposit. The bacteria get between the inflamed gum and the teeth and cause the formation of so-called pockets, as a result of which the gums simply pull away from the surface of the teeth.

  If the inflammatory process also extends to the territory of the periodontium, the periodontitis, that is the inflammation of the periodontium forms, as a result of which the fixing tissues of the teeth degrade, spreading most likely to the tissues of the jaw as well. This is the moment when even the supporting structure of the tooth also starts weakening or even disintegrating, as a result of which first the teeth become loose and they may even fall out.

  Gingivitis | Symptoms

  If the gums are red, inflamed and swollen, we talk about gingivitis. Bleeding often accompanies this, the gums may be soft to the touch but without causing any pain.

  The formation of gingivitis can mainly be prevented by observing the proper oral hygiene, in which your dentist is ready to help; during the regular dental controls your dentist provides assistance in acquiring the proper oral hygiene, the proper use of the toothbrush, dental floss as well as the selection of the most suitable toothpaste and rinsing liquid.

  Periodontal Inflammation | Symptoms

  As a result of the already developed gingivitis periodontitis, that is the periodontal inflammation, which is the bacteriological inflammation of the tissues of the periodontium, can form within a relatively short period. Responding to this inflammation process, that is to the infection itself, the human body starts to produce materials, which break down the tissues fixing the teeth, quite often even the bone tissues, as well.

  This is how the degenerative lesion of the gums, that is periodontitis, forms. Loosening the teeth, which leads to losing the teeth, is only a single step from here. The greatest danger of the periodontal inflammation is that it is an unnoticed, painless process.

  Periodontitis | The Disease Of The Middle-aged And Elderly People

  Periodontitis is mainly the disease of the middle-aged and elderly people. The inflammation of the periodontium causes a lasting detriment and we can hope for the regeneration of the damaged tissues only occasionally, if the cases are not very serious. The properly set-up treatment plan, together with observing the proper oral hygiene, can improve the condition of the gums in any stadium and can delay or even prevent the formation of the serious conditions.

  As we have already detailed it, the symptoms of the inflammation of the periodontium are as follows: the shrinking and bleeding of the gums, and the foul breath. Later the teeth become loose and start moving. Finally the teeth are lost. After noticing the symptoms it is important to turn to the dentist immediately, since the recession of the tooth tissues can already be identified by means of a careful examination and taking an X-ray record at a very early stage. This can be cured in this phase, if the proper oral hygiene is also observed.

Tooth Replacement

• Teeth have many tasks in our daily lives. Teeth are used chiefly for biting or chewing food, but they also help in the shaping of sounds, forming of words in speech and creating face harmony. Thus replacing of missing teeth is very important in case of only one missing tooth as well.

  The prosthesis are not only responsible for the replacement of missing teeth, they help to avoid functional and aesthetic disorders, and prevent later lesions caused by lost teeth. Lack of one or more teeth can disrupt the normal dentition and it can indicate the moving of remaining teeth into the empty space that can lead to further problems.

  Loosening Of Teeth | Causes

  • tooth decay
  • periodontal inflammation
  • normal age-related atrophy of mandible
  • trauma

  Missing Teeth | Consequences

  • decline in chewing ability
  • periodontal disease that affect loose more and more teeth
  • overloading of the remaining teeth that cause dental abrasion
  • prominence of the remaining teeth
  • drifting and inclination of adjacent remaining teeth
  • pain in mandibular joint
  • digesting system diseases
  • dysphonia
  • aesthetic disadvantage
  • altered facial expression
  • psychological inhibitions

  Dentures | Divided Into 2 Groups

  Fixed prosthetics (crown, bridge, denture, post-crown): Fixed prosthetics mean carefully prepared, not removable replacements attached to remaining teeth or dental implants. They need dental intervention to remove them. It is important to note that fixed prosthesis is damaged during removal, so the removed prosthesis cannot be placed back into the mouth. Fixed restorations: crowns, bridges, root canal pin prosthesis. 

  Removable dentures (partial, full): If a denture substitutes all teeth of a jaw, it is called a full removable denture. Removable partial denture replaces only the missing teeth when some of the natural teeth still remain. The replacement teeth of dentures are usually attached to gum-coloured plastic base, which is connected by metal framework that holds the denture in place in the mouth. Removable partial dentures can be attached to natural teeth with metal clasps or devices called precision attachments. They can be removed without dental intervention.

  Aesthetic Dentures, Crowns | Routine Dental Procedures

  When the functions of a tooth (chewing, aesthetic) cannot be restored with filling or inlay, a crown is warranted. In our dental clinic it is a routine procedure to make natural looking, aesthetic dental crowns, bridges and dentures. Crowns are full restorations they cover the whole surface of a tooth and protect the tooth from breaking. Crowns do not discolour and they are durable and resistant.

  Crowns | Preparation According To Modern Rules

  Crowns are grinded by a special technique called shoulder preparation. It means that the dentist prepares a shoulder around the tooth at the gum line level. Thus the crown perfectly fit to the grinded tooth at the shoulder. This technique is much more precise than traditional tangential preparation because the line where the crown meets the toot remains invisible and doesn't cause any irritation.

  Dentures | Materials

  The most common type of crown is made of porcelain fused to metal. It means that a porcelain layer burnt on a thin metal cap. Ultimately, only the porcelain is visible. It is a very durable prosthesis, but lacks the transparency of the natural teeth.

  Metal-free crowns look as natural as real teeth. They are strong, wear-resistant, durable and also aesthetic restorations. Considering the technology it may be (Bell Glass, Empress) pressed ceramic or (CAD-CAM technology) procera crown.

  Aesthetic Dentistry | Replacement Of Missing Teeth

  Bridges are one way of replacing missing teeth, adjacent teeth are used to support the dental prosthesis. The most common material of dental bridges is porcelain fused to metal, since it is strong enough to withstand chewing loads. Metal-free materials can be used in case of smaller dentures, such as procera bridges with CAD-CAM technology.

  Bridges | Materials

  There are two types of materials for dental bridges:

  Metal-ceramic: It is durable in case of more missing teeth for a long time due to its metal structure. With a special technique a porcelain layer is burnt onto this metal frame to make an aesthetically perfect bridge. The disadvantage of this type is the allergic effects of metals.

  Metal-free zirconia: It does not contain any metal. The bridge frame is made up of zirconium oxide which is four times stronger than metal. It also can be used in case of metal allergy and with an aesthetically perfect result.

  Special Type Of Bridges | Inlays

  This special type of bridges is recommended in the case when the adjacent teeth have fillings or tooth decay. Instead of grinding the adjacent teeth, only small cavity will be prepared in the place of tooth decay or filling. It is necessary to prepare a small cavity in both adjacent teeth to support the bridge. Finally the bridge is bonded into both prepared cavity with a special adhesive material.

  On the one hand this type of bridges can replace the missing teeth on the other hand the inlays aesthetically replace the missing tooth tissue. The biggest advantage of these inlay-anchorage bridges is that it's not necessary to grind the adjacent teeth, but its disadvantage is that it's not suitable in case of multiple missing teeth.

  Metal-free Dentures | Aesthetics Above All

  When aesthetics are essential, metal-free prosthesis is recommended especially in front teeth area.

  Zirconia Crowns | What Is Zirconium-oxide?

  The zirconium (zircon) is a chemical element with atomic number 40 located in the group of metals. It is a very hard, high strength and solid material and also highly resistant to corrosion. The most common oxide is zirconium dioxide, also referred to as zirconia.

  Zirconium-oxide | Characteristic

  Zirconia is a very hard material and it has a high flexural strength which makes it very resistant. Zirconia doesn't corrode because it is chemically inert. In order to achieve these properties zirconium-oxide has to undergo an advanced manufacturing process, so its bending strength can be increased tenfold as compared to that of porcelain. Therefore it could not be used in dentistry for a long time because of the absence of suitable technique. The breakthrough was the appearance of CAD / CAM systems in early 1990s, which means a perfect process of zirconium oxide.

  Zirconia Crowns | Fitting Technique

  Porcelain fused to zirconia crowns can be used only with shoulder preparation technique to ensure the protection of the gums and avoid the possibility of gum recession and inflammation.

  Zirconia Crowns | Benefits

  • completely metal-free
  • look exactly like real teeth
  • no allergic reactions
  • no cold / hot sensitivity
  • strong enough for molar teeth
  • no dark lines at the gum line
  • no discolouration
  • high resistance
  • very hard tooth-coloured material
  • precise fit thanks to the CAD / CAM technology
  • no gum inflammation (gingivitis) or gum recession due to shoulder preparation
  • suitable for bridges thanks to its strong frame

  Cad / Cam Technology | High-tech Dentistry

  In today's modern dentistry, the rapid development of computer technology has made possible the utilization and processing of zirconium oxide. Processing of high strength zirconium-oxide wasn't possible with the conventional laboratory techniques. The appearance of CAD / CAM systems means the breakthrough technology of dental labs.

Aesthetic Fillings

• Aesthetic fillings mean the restoration of the original colour and shape of the tooth. A composite resin filling is mixed from different colours to achieve the exact shade and make it 'invisible'. Only a minimal amount of healthy tooth tissue is needed to be removed for preparing the cavity for the filling.

  Composite resin is made of the mixture of plastic and fine glass particles. Aesthetic fillings are made of tooth-coloured composite resin and created to look like natural tooth. Composite resin fillings are strong and durable.

  How Are Composite Resin Fillings Accomplished?

  After local anesthesia the dentist removes the decayed portions of the tooth and prepares a cavity for the filling. As the composite resin can be bounded in thin layers, more of the natural tooth tissue can be preserved. If the decayed area is too close to a nerve, a special liner is used to protect it.

  Then a special dental material is used to open up the pores of the dentin and toughen up the surface of the exposed enamel. This creates a stronger bond between the tooth and the filling.

  Bonding means the application of a tooth-coloured composite resin. The bond resin is used to stick the composite to the tooth. Although this material is made of the same dental resin as the composite it is much more fluid so it is hardened and cured with a very bright light.

  The filling is slowly built up in thin layers. The dentist uses a bright blue light that hardens the soft material before the next one is applied.

  After the filling is completed, a special paper called articulating paper is used to adjust the height of the filling and set the bite. Your tooth is then polished.

  What Is The Different Between Composite Resin Fillings And Amalgam Fillings?

  Composite resin filling: Composite resin fillings are known as tooth filling coloured to look like a natural tooth. They were created as an alternative to traditional metal fillings. There are no known health risks of receiving composite fillings.

  • match the colour of the teeth
  • can be completed in one dental visit
  • can bond directly to the tooth, making the tooth stronger than it would be with an amalgam filling
  • less drilling is involved than with amalgam, the bonding process holds the composite resin in the tooth

  Amalgam fillings: Amalgam fillings are known as metal fillings. Their safety has been in question for a number of years as they may contain mercury. The absorption of elemental mercury may contribute to several diseases, including Alzheimer's, multiple sclerosis, dementia and arthritis. Amalgam fillings are a mixture of mercury liquid and small pieces of silver and other metals.

  • doesn't match the colour of the teeth
  • significant amount of healthy tooth tissue often must be removed to make a space large enough to hold an amalgam filling
  • can cause discoloration where the filling meets the tooth some people may be allergic to mercury or be concerned about its effects.

Inlay, Onlay

• An inlay is a special filling prepared by a dental technician and bonded by a dentist into the into the tooth cavity. It is made on the basis of the impression of the tooth cavity in a dental lab consisting of a solid substance fitted into the tooth.

  Inlay | Material

  Inlays can be made of different materials. The most commonly used substances are gold, precious metal (gold inlay), ceramics (porcelain, aesthetic inlays) or composite (white inlay). The advantage of gold inlay is the easy elimination of invisible inaccuracies due to its material properties. A porcelain or composite inlay is more transparent looks more natural and its colour is similar to natural teeth.

  Inlay | Accuracy

  Due to laboratory conditions inlays have a much more accurate fit than tooth fillings. It is prepared to an individual shape to provide perfect bite and functionality.

  Inlay | Onlay | Overlay

  Inlays, onlays, overlays can restore cusps and cover the teeth. An inlay is more expensive than a directly made tooth fillings but it can potentially last for decades. It is more durable, it doesn't break or discolour.

  Inlay | When Are They Applied?

  Tooth cavities can be restored in several ways for example light-cured aesthetic fillings or inlays. An inlay is a cast type of restoration retained by mechanical factors in the preparation of the tooth and accurate fitted into the tooth cavity. Inlays are bonded to the tooth using adhesive dental cement. This procedure makes inlays more durable than traditional fillings. The material of the inlay can be chosen by the patient during a consultation with the dentist.

  Inlay | Summary

  An inlay is a solid type of filling prepared in dental lab to replace the missing tooth tissue and to restore anatomical function, shape and chewing ability of the tooth. Inlays are bonded into prepared tooth cavity by the dentist.

  Tooth-coloured Inlay | Large Cavities

  Tooth-coloured inlays are required in case of large area of tooth decay especially it expand to adjacent tooth surfaces as well. It is required in case of replacing old, large dental fillings too. It looks more natural than directly made dental fillings and gives back the normal biting surface of the tooth with its well-prepared grooves. As it's made in a dental laboratory its physical properties are more appropriate than traditional fillings (abrasion-resistant, does not break, does not discolour).

  Tooth-coloured Inlays | Durability And Aesthetics

  A tooth-coloured inlay is very durable and aesthetic type of restoration that has a lot of positive features:

  • arbitrarily chosen colour
  • ensures perfect contact point between the adjacent teeth
  • permanently restore the missing cusps
  • it is not necessary to grind the teeth
  • can be also used for replacements (inlay-anchorage bridges)
  • potentially last for decades
  • extreme fitting accuracy, high-quality
  • outstanding strength and stability
  • non-allergenic

  In every respect a dental inlay is a much better solution than a standard tooth filling. In spite of its higher cost it is a worthwhile investment since it's a long-term restoration for tooth cavities.

Professional Tooth Whitening

• Our dental clinic uses a peroxid-free whitening system that provides comfortable, safe, effective and rapid bleaching procedure for white and shiny teeth!

  • specially developed whitening formula

  Is It Effective For Everyone?

  It provides amazing results for anyone who wants to whiten their teeth. It whitens teeth stained by smoking or by strongly coloured foods and drinks. It has even proven effective in fighting tetracycline stains also whitens teeth speckled by fluoride or yellowed by medicines or hereditary discoloration.

  How White Could My Teeth Be?

  Teeth become whiter from 5 to 14 shades according to the Vita scale (scale used by dentists to pin point the shade of teeth). The results depend on how discoloured the teeth were originally.

  How Long Does The Procedure Take?

  It takes only 30 to 40 minutes and the discoloration which has built up over the years will disappear!

  How Long Will The Whitening Last?

Root Canal Treatment

• Teeth have their own circulation, metabolism, and involves blood vessels and nerves as well. The nerve fibres and veins run inside the pulp tissue of the tooth and can be inflamed due to a variety of factors (e.g. deep caries, shock, crown fracture). The inflammation of the pulp tissue (pulpitis) cause intense pain and destroy the living tissues inside the tooth. In this case it is necessary to clean the internal tooth and then fill the root canal(s). This process is called root canal treatment.

  Contrary to popular opinion, root canal treatment procedure can be done painlessly! The patient does not feel any pain during the treatment thanks to the technological advances.

  Why Is It Necessary To Treat Inflamed Or Necrotic Teeth?

  • because our primary goal is to keep your own teeth (instead of extraction)
  • pain and bite sensitivity can be prevented or avoided
  • further infections and complications can be prevented

  Root Canal Treatment | Brief Description

  • the first step is to clarify the complaints, make a dental examination and take an x-ray of the tooth (it shows the local environment of the tooth, the inflammation of the root apex and the periodontal status) 
  • next step is the local anesthesia of the tooth
  • then follows the exposure of the tooth
  • after the electrical determination of root canal length the dentist clean and explore the canals
  • if It's necessary, a cleanser, antiseptic, anti-inflammatory material is placed into the tooth that temporarily close it
  • the last step is the permanent filling of the root canals and the tooth and a control X-ray

  Root Canal Treatment | After Intervention

  In the most cases the treated tooth become asymptomatic because the infected, bacteria-rich pulp has been removed and interior of the tooth has been disinfected. The treated tooth can be sensitive to bite for 1-2 days but it doesn't mean sharp pain (inflammation of the area around the apex doesn't pass away immediately). Tooth that has a large filling is recommended to be covered with a crown, because the root canal treated tooth is lifeless (no circulation), it may become fragile over time.

  Root Canal Treatment | Indications

  • pain, cold sensitivity, when the deep caries reached pulp chamber and bacteria infect the pulp 
  • if the pulp chamber become open due to any shock or injury
  • if the lifeless tooth is sensitive to heat and cause mild pain even if it's asymptomatic
  • inflammation of the pulp
  • if the vascular and nervous substance of tooth pulp absorbed
  • if the crown destroyed, a post and core need to be inserted and it must be preceded by root canal treatment
  • periodontal diseases
  • if the tooth is grinded too close to the pulp while it's being prepared for a crown
  • the tooth has uncertain vitality 

  Pulp Inflammation | Symptoms

  • sensibility
  • sharp pain caused by external stimuli
  • it hurts spontaneously (without an external stimulus) and it takes up to several hours
  • tooth can be discolored due to lifeless pulp, these teeth do not respond to any stimulus
  • biting can be painful if not only the pulp but the root area is inflamed as well
  • X-ray modification
  • in several cases pulp become lifeless without any symptoms and the tooth can break without pain In these cases it is necessary to go to dentist immediately because the tooth can be saved with root canal treatment and the missing part can be replaced with porcelain veneer, dental crown or onlay
