Dental Implants for Replacing Missing Teeth After Tooth Decay and Gum Disease

Dr. Bobby Chhoker

We all have to admit that there are some days when we forget to floss and other days when we are too tired to even brush our teeth before we go to bed. A good dental hygiene routine is essential for optimal oral health and excellent well-being. But none of us is perfect. Often, despite our efforts, we may not be brushing or flossing our teeth thoroughly enough. This means that we may miss some hidden corners and bacteria or plaque can linger on the teeth, especially in those hard-to-reach areas. Bacteria flourish and further plaque builds up and hardens to become tartar or calculus. Once tartar has formed on the surface of your teeth and across your gum line it cannot be removed by brushing alone. It may look like staining, however, despite how hard you try to brush your teeth it does not come off. Tartar continues to grow and build on your teeth and eventually, it starts to irritate your gums. It creates pockets within your gums and as these pockets grow they come closer to your bone that helps support your teeth. Your bone tries to move away from the tartar until it reaches the end of the tooth. The tooth or teeth are no longer supported which will lead to them becoming wobbly or loose and eventually, you will have missing teeth. If you visit your dentist on a regular basis they can detect such issues from the outset.

Your dentist will identify the extent of decay or disease that is affecting your teeth and refer you to the hygienist to remove the excess plaque and tartar from your teeth and gum line.
