Before the ‘Big New Day, it is imperative that the new age bride and groom take care to look their best. It is your wedding clothes trial and after multiple visits, a bunch of fabrics and finally you face the mirror looking like a charming Prince/Princess. To your dismay, a stunning back at you is a black hole in your yellow looking teeth, a well-defined contrast with your beautiful pearl white wedding costume. So if you are a bride/groom to be, your trial date should not be the day you realize your smile must shine to the occasion you are preparing for!!

Here are some to-do lists, if you are conscious of the way you look for your wedding. Some consecutive dental treatments can take longer than a few weeks. Be sure that you get that desired smile within the time frame you have.

One week to One-month time frame

Glazing Smile:

Teeth jewellery is a fun-loving trend which involves sticking a flat gemstone of any shape and colour and absolutely no drilling or damage to your teeth. You end up with a sparkling tooth.

Discolouration – yellow / black colour smile:

Bleaching (Teeth whitening) helps to get whiten teeth that have been stained or darkened, which cannot be removed with regular cleaning (Scaling). There are home bleaching / in-office bleaching techniques; whichever is comfortable can be done to get the desired result.

Big/crooked teeth:

A misshaped tooth that doesn’t suit face can be made just fine to achieve a perfect smile by a simple contouring procedure. This makes the teeth look even more aligned and symmetrical.

Spacing in teeth / chipped teeth:

Mild gaps or broken teeth can be rectified by tooth coloured fillings/restorations that are bonded to an ideal shape, size and colour. This makes the teeth look younger and beautiful and finally, the result is a pretty smile.

One month–Six Months Time Frame

Small Teeth:

If you are not happy with the size of your teeth, which has restricted your smile, then there is a solution with veneers, which are thin facings like contact lenses, which cover the teeth 180 degrees in front to get perfect size and colour. Jacket crowns are another solution which covers the teeth 360 degree, all-round to change the size and colour of the teeth.

Gummy Smile:

When too much gum tissue is exposed while smiling, we get a gummy smile. Fortunately, a gummy smile can be corrected by a simple laser procedure. Gum discolouration can be corrected by a gum depigmentation technique. Gum lifts, another dental procedure that raises the gum line. This is done to create longer or more symmetrical teeth.

Missing teeth:

Dental bridges are used to replace one or more missing teeth. The procedure involves replacing missing teeth which is cemented into place with the help of abutment tooth.

Dental Implants are another procedure in replacement of missing tooth. The implant device made of titanium is inserted into bone and the dental crown or denture is connected to the implant through the abutment.

Six months and more

Jaw and bite problem:

Irregular teeth, forwardly placed teeth/jaws, the spacing between teeth, can be corrected by various new technologies, involving initially fixed appliance treatment (Braces). Braces are either metallic/invisible type. Treatment involves realigning the teeth and pushing the teeth backwards.

Supposedly, if the jaws are forwardly placed, after the required investigation procedure, the necessary jaw surgeries can be done. Various surgeries include. Jaw correction, lip correction, chin augmentation, nose correction etc. All you need to do is plan a little in advance and leave your worries aside.

Otoplasty or Surgery of the outer ear

otoplasty-cover-image

What is Otoplasty?

The surgical treatment for pinna of the ear or outer ear for a congenital deformity or deformity caused after an accident refers Otoplasty. The aim of this cosmetic procedure can be to reshape the irregularity and/or to enhance the appearance of the ear.

The best age for otoplasty is 5-6 years, which means before the complete growth of the ears. However, anyone after this age can also undergo Otoplasty treatment. Ear molding or splinting are nonsurgical treatments for children and the best age for this is the first 2-3 weeks of life. The recovery time and risk of treatment for non-surgical treatment is also considerably low.

pinna-outer-ear outer ear-pinna image

In this digital era, when people can interact face to face with a digital device, the importance of ‘appearance of anatomy’ acquired more prominence in life. The increase in the number of people opting for facial and other surgeries that have aesthetic importance, globally reveals it. For children, while ear deformity becomes an issue of self-confidence, it is advisable to correct it at an early stage of childhood. There are some congenital ear deformities that will be corrected over time naturally. But the fear factor is, it is unpredictable, in whom this miracle will happen. In children outer ear deformity is more common and treating in childhood itself is simple and cost-effective.

Who is the candidate for Otoplasty?

The outer ear has a minor role in hearing. When it is harmed or lost its original shape after an accident, one can opt for Otoplasty. People who found their outer ears unaesthetic and want to have a more common generally accepted shape also can opt for Otoplasty.

While Otoplasty is designed for both deformities caused after an accident and deformity by birth. The prevalence of congenital deformity is high in South Asia, especially in Afghanistan and South India. This is mainly due to the consanguineous marriage which is referred to as a marital union among close biological kin.

Preventive care @ Jerush

Prevention is better than cure, which is a generally accepted proverb. When dental health care is concerned, it is taken in the complete sense. Since the mouth is the gateway to our body, our overall health is linked to the food we have and the oral health we maintain.

Many among us in India are less concerned about oral health. People tend to wait until a small problem develops to cause pain or other forms of severity.  A regular visit to the dentist plays a prime role in preventive dental care. The investment spends for a biannual visit to the dentist is comparatively very less to that of actual treatment cost spending after severity. The patient should bear in mind, that dentists can typically recognize more issues at an early stage.

The Treatment Process:

An overall dental check-up is a time-consuming process. It includes several stages like a full mouth check-up to detect any signs of dental disease, any diseased or cracked teeth, an oral cancer screening, any gum disease symptoms, problems with your restored tooth if any, etc. The association of dental x-ray in this dental exam is very notable. Dental x-ray helps your dentist to detect even tiny problems that are invisible to bare eyes.

You will be taught proper oral hygiene habits if needed. Proper brushing alone can’t keep your mouth clean. Remnants harbor in the tiny gap in between teeth can develop into acids that can cause cavities through the enamel. So, regular flossing is a very important habit to be maintained. Reasons for bad breath are many. If you are bad breath affected, our dentist will exam the underlying reasons to suggest a remedy to stop it completely. If you’re under any medication or any form of tobacco user, you will have to inform our dentist for getting suitable advice.0

What is Gummy smile?

It is the abnormal display of gum tissues above the upper teeth when people smile. The soft gingival tissues display abnormal, giving a short look to the teeth which affects the overall look of the smile.

  1. The height and shape of one’s teeth
  2. The way lips move when smiling
  3. The angle of the jaw compared with the rest of the face

Causes of a gummy smile

There are many reasons for gummy smile development

  1. A tooth covered with more gum tissue during eruption while the tooth appears to be short.
  2. Improper growth of upper jaw bone

Maxillary cyst removal

What is Maxillary Cyst?

Maxillary cysts or Maxillary Sinus Retention Cysts are rounded, dome-shaped, soft tissues developed from the mucosa within the maxillary sinus. The cyst can evolve without any symptoms and generally diagnosed by several imaging exams by professionals.

This cyst is supported by fibrous connective tissue and seemed to be filled by liquid, air, or solid content regardless of its origin.

The role of CT scan imaging is very important for these cases since it reveals the rare peripheral presentation of cysts.

Radicular Cyst

Radicular cysts are generally seen in the anterior region of the jaw caused due to trauma. The development rate of this cyst is low, and severity affects adjacent teeth and roots, causing more open to the bones.

Maxillary Residual Cyst

Maxillary Residual cyst is the retention of a radicular cyst that occurs due to improper removal of radicular or other inflammatory cysts or due to the presence of ruining remnants around the tissues of teeth.

Verrucous Carcinoma- Mouth cancer

verrucous-carcinoma-cover

What is Carcinoma?

Carcinoma is a cancer tissue developed from epithelial cells, whose genome has been damaged or deformed, causing cells to show malevolent properties. It grows in soft skin cells or the tissues which line the inner or outer surface of the human body such as the liver or kidneys.

Types of Carcinoma develop in mouth

1. Squamous cell carcinoma

It is a very common type of skin cancer, occurs in the mouth, and also found in the soft lining of certain organs of the human body, digestive tract, and respiratory tract.

2. Minor salivary gland carcinoma

This is one of the many types of mouth cancers that develop on the salivary gland. Adenoid cystic carcinoma, mucoepidermoid carcinoma, and polymorphous low-grade adenocarcinoma are a few of the other types.

3. Lymphoma

The tonsils in our mouth and base of the tongue are containing lymphoid tissue. Cancer that develops in the Lymph tissue is called Lymphoma

4. Benign oral cavity tumors

There are chances of developing plenty of types of noncancerous cancers in the oral cavity and oropharynx. Since these cancers have the possibility of developing into cancer, benign tumors are often surgically removed.

5. Lip Cancer

Squamous cell carcinoma and Basel cell carcinoma are the two types of carcinomas that generally develop and mostly affect men.

6. Mouth Cancer

This is a type of oral cancer that develops in any part of the mouth, including the lips, gums, or tongue.

Types of Braces

Orthodontics

Orthodontics is a branch of dentistry that deals with the diagnosis, prevention, and addressing of malaligned/malpositioned teeth and jaws as well as malaligned bite positions. Dentofacial orthopaedics focuses on modifying facial growth. Orthodontic treatment can take a few months to more than a year, and the procedure involves the use of dental braces and other appliances to gradually move the teeth and jaws around. When the malocclusion (misalignment) is very severe, jaw surgery may be needed.

After orthodontic treatment has completed, over time there is a tendency for teeth to reverse back to their former positions. Over half of the patients have some reversion to pre-treatment positions within a decade of time following treatment. To prevent this, the majority of patients are offered a retainer, once treatment has completed.

Modern Orthodontics

Modern Orthodontics now has many widely accepted treatment procedures. People started visiting the dentist with their kids at an early stage is a common scene around us. As for as orthodontics is concerned, modern dentistry has contributed a list of treatments to choose from. Jerush dental and facial corrective centre has the entire types of braces for their patients to select as per their wish. Here are the common types of braces and their functional importance in a brief.

braces-dental Different-types-of-braces at Jerush dental and facial corrective centre

Metal Braces

This is the traditional type and called as traditional or wire braces. This is the most economical way of wearing braces and the user will get the result at fairly fast. Contrary to the yesteryears’, modern wire braces are available in less noticeable colours and users can select their choice of colour rubber bands that go with the wire.

Ceramic Braces

These brackets are tooth coloured and have a similar texture like tooth. The wires are also available in less noticeable and tooth coloured. This system was once found very demanding since it is ideal for people who want to hide their wearing of braces though the price of these braces is high.

Lingual Braces

These braces are made to wear on the inside of the bite. Whether the braces are metal or ceramic, it is hidden inside the bite and can be seen only when the mouth is open. They are less intrusive than the wire braces.

Besides its use for aesthetic reasons, it has many negative points including maintaining its cleanliness is a difficult task. The user may feel difficulty in speech and also these braces are not a good choice for a patient who needs extensive treatment.

Self-Ligating Braces

Available in both metal and ceramic versions, these braces are commonly orthodontists are using for their candidates nowadays. Same as wire and ceramic braces self-ligating braces work with bracket and wire system. The only difference is, instead of brackets and rubber bands, this system uses brackets with clips or door that hold on the wire. Holding on to food remnants is less and comparatively less painful than other braces and thereby reduces the number of visits to their dentist, a patient has to make.

Invisalign

This is an expensive branded device and generally used invisible aligner, ‘braces’, has its own pros and cons. The best feature it has is the ability to totally remove the system to clean the teeth and braces when necessary. Invisalign is the best choice for a user who seeks a more flexible treatment for fairly standard malalignments.

litecure-composite drawing lite cure-composite (drawing)

Composite Fillings

Since amalgam fillings contain mercury, which is harmful to the health, nowadays tooth coloured composite fillings replace silver amalgam. But it is well suited for small cavities rather than larger cavities.

Gummy smile correction

When the teeth appear too short or when the gum line appears excess or uneven, it is corrected by removing a minor amount of gum tissue and excess bone tissue (if needed) and contoured to show up more of the teeth.

Dental Implants

Now you can have an artificial tooth for a lifetime. The dental implant is an artificial tooth. Its root is made up of Titanium and an abutment is attached to hold the artificial tooth in firm.  The Titanium root which is screwed into the jaw bone provides a strong foundation. The attachment of an artificial tooth (crown) may be permanent or removable.

Dentures

A denture is a removable dental prosthetic for missing and surrounding tissue. Complete dentures and Partial dentures are the two types of dentures. While complete dentures used for people with no teeth is left, a partial denture is used for people with some natural teeth is left

Bridges (fixed partial dentures)

A bridge replaces one or more missing tooth by placing crowns on the adjacent sides of the missing tooth area. The bridge is then cemented firmly into place..

Gum Grafts

The exposed gum roots caused by gum recession may be sensitive to hot and cold food or liquid, which make teeth look longer than the real and can result in developing cavity on the tooth root and bone loss. Gum grafting can stop gum recession by moving healthy gum tissue to the gum line. It also stops bone loss and gives improved aesthetics to the gum line.

Advantages of Dental Implants over Dentures @ Jerush

dental-implant-vs-denturecover

Why Dental Implants?

Dental implants provide many advantages compared to dentures. A denture that suits best for the beginning may tend to slip and become uncomfortable after some time which is due to the gradual bone loss. Keeping the denture steadily for a long time firmly on the bony ridges that dentures clasp onto is a difficult task due to wear. It is specific to say that the most annoying aspect of denture is its poor chewing ability.

Here are some points to consider while you are deciding between a denture or an implant-supported restoration

  • Dental adhesives are often used for bonding dentures in the mouth. This sometimes requires re-bonding after food. No such adhesives are needed for implant supported dentures.
  • Dentures demand ‘removal’ for cleaning, whereas except for removable denture, implant supported denture can be cleaned by brushing and flossing as like normal teeth
  • Your sense of taste is compromised as the roof of the mouth is covered by dentures. No such condition occurs in implant-supported restoration.
  • Dentures may slip out while speaking or eating, whereas implants are firmly anchored in the jaws and won’t get slipped.
  • With dentures, you need to eat with caution and sometimes you may limit eating more food since it has only 10% chewing power to that of natural teeth. Contrary to it, with implant restorations, one can eat with full chewing power.
  • Click sound while you hear during eating with dentures is no more with implant supported dentures.
  • Dentures have no effect on jaw bone needed to prevent bone loss, while implants ensure high-pressure stimulation that needed to prevent jawbone loss.
  • Bone loss progression caused overtime while wearing dentures can result in contributing ‘old look’ to the face. Implants prevent bone loss.
