New Jersey Cosmetic Dentist | Dr. G. Gary GreenServing Caldwell, Essex County, Livingston, Verona, and Newark, New JerseyTuesday, December 9, 2008Dental Disasters: What You Should Do
From our perspective, any noticeable damage to your teeth can be considered a “disaster.” A severely chipped, cracked, broken, missing, or discolored tooth can cause a person to be embarrassed by, or at least very self-conscious about their smile. This can have many far-reaching and negative social, psychological, and economic impacts on an individual. Your smile is one of the first things people notice about you. If you hide your smile because of dental problems, then it is in your best interest to explore what the field of cosmetic dentistry can do for you.
Many things cause dental disasters. Trauma to the mouth is one of the most common. Such trauma may be the result of an automobile accident, sporting accident, work-related accident, or any other unforeseen circumstances. Certain medications and radiation treatments can cause severe discoloration and tooth loss. Chronic conditions such as temporomandibular joint disorder and teeth grinding can also lead to tooth loss. And, of course, poor oral hygiene habits will take their toll. If you have lost one or several teeth, it is crucial that you seek treatment as soon as possible – for functional as well as cosmetic reasons. If a missing tooth does not get treated in a timely manner, the bone structure around it will begin to deteriorate, which will then lead to further complications. Dental implants are the preferred treatment for missing teeth, but if you are not a candidate, there are other options available. Severely decayed teeth need immediate treatment as well. If you have recently suffered a dental disaster, you will want to look for a certified prosthodontist like Dr. Gary Green. He has the training to perform everything from minor dental procedures to full-mouth reconstructions. If you live in the Caldwell, New Jersey area, please contact Dr. Green today to arrange a consultation. posted by
