EVERYTHING ONE SHOULD KNOW ABOUT DENTAL CROWN

 A crown is a tooth-shaped cap. Dentists use crowns to treat weak, broken, or decayed teeth.

They look like a hollow, tooth-shaped “cap”, placed over a prepared natural tooth.

 

Situations where a crown may be needed include:

·         To protect a tooth that has become weakened (for example by decay) or, cracked by holding it together and preventing it from breaking.

·         To replace an old, broken, or failing tooth filling.

·         To restore a tooth that has broken already.

·         To restore length on worn-down teeth (for example, from grinding).

·         To cover and support a tooth that has a large filling if there is not much natural tooth structure left.

·         To make a cosmetic modification such as closing spaces between teeth or reshaping the teeth.

·         Crowns are used to hold dental bridges in place.

·         A crown is used to cover a dental implant.

·         A crown is recommended to restore strength to any tooth that has undergone root canal therapy.

 

Types of dental crowns:

        1. Temporary Crowns

        Material: acrylic, stainless steel, or provisional resin.

        Purpose: interim restoration between crown preparation and permanent crown placement.

        Duration: 1-3 weeks.

HOW EFFECTIVE IS LASER TREATMENT FOR GUM PROBLEMS

 What is laser treatment for gum problems?

Gum problems such as periodontal disease, affect millions of people worldwide. Laser treatment is an effective treatment for gum disease and can be a good alternative to more invasive gum surgeries. Laser treatment is a non-surgical gum disease treatment where the dentist uses a laser to access an infected area to destroy infected bacteria and tissue. It is an excellent alternative to conventional gum surgery because it permits treatment without stitching or cutting and with less discomfort to the patient.

Laser treatment, also known as laser periodontal therapy, uses a specialized laser to target and eliminate infected gum tissue, bacteria, and pathogens causing inflammation. The procedure involves:

1) Pocket reduction: laser energy removes diseased tissues and reduces pocket depth.

2) Bacterial examination: laser kills bacteria and pathogens causing infection.

3) Tissue regeneration: laser stimulates healing and regeneration of healthy tissue.

 


Effectiveness and benefits of laser treatment:

 1) Improved gum attachments: laser treatment increases gum attachment of teeth, reducing tooth mobility.

2) Bacterial reduction:

Laser treatment eliminates 99% of bacteria and pathogens.

3) Reduced inflammation:

 Laser treatment decreases inflammation and bleeding.

4) Minimally invasive:

Laser treatment reduces recovery time and discomfort.

5) Less pain:

Laser treatment is often pain-free, reducing the need for anesthesia.

6) Faster recovery:

Recovery time is significantly reduced compared to scalpel surgery.

7) Reduced bleeding:

Laser treatment minimizes bleeding and swelling.

8) Preservation of tissue:

Laser treatment preserves healthy tissue, maintaining gum aesthetics.

9) Long term results:

Laser treatment preserves and provides long-term stability and health.
