New Smile Dental Perth Family Dentist

Before a tooth is damaged so badly, that it can not be saved, it’s likely that the tooth was affected by untreated dental caries and decay, infection, or gum (periodontal) problems for a longer period of time. Decay can start with a chip or the buildup of plaque, causing gum disease and cavities.

Once the cavities reach the deeper layers of the tooth, it’s irreversible and this is where your tooth starts to break down. Teeth can become hopeless when the remaining tooth structure is minimal and not viable for predictable repair or restoration, or when the supporting structures of the tooth are too diseased.

Hopeless or missing teeth can be a serious challenge when you chew, speak or smile. We see many patients whose advanced dental disease has led to a loss of self confidence, impacting not just their comfort and well-being but their social lives.

When you present us with a severely diseased tooth, it may be caused by restorative work that has broken down badly, or you may have injured yourself, or it may be long-term dental or gum problems that have been left unattended.

Whatever the cause, we first aim to assess the health of the remaining part of your tooth, and its surrounding supportive gum and bone. This means that it’s all about evaluating the health and quality of what remains below your gum line.

All on 4 is a full teeth replacement method, involving 4 dental implants which support a full arch arch of teeth. The major benefit is the low amount of implants required, compared to other and older techniques, and success in difficult bone situations without any need for bone grafting or staged treatments.
