Dental implants provide a foundation for replacement teeth that look, feel and function like natural teeth. The benefits of dental implants include improved chewing function, improved esthetics, preservation of bone and preservation of facial structure among many others.
Gum grafting is an effective way to cover unsightly, sensitive or exposed root surfaces and to prevent future gum recession and bone loss. The key to tooth health and preservation is a strong foundation and that starts with high quality gums.
Bone grafting is performed to restore the natural contour of the jaw bone that may have been lost as a result of periodontal disease, trauma, infection, tooth loss or congenital abnormalities. It is also commonly performed to create a solid foundation for future implant placement to replace missing teeth. Fortunately, Dr. Rasmussen performs a variety of different bone grafting procedures ranging from simple to the most complex, providing a solution for any patient.
Sometimes teeth may need to be removed due to cavities, periodontal disease or infection. This can be accomplished in a painless, quick and minimally invasive manner in the hands of an experienced surgeon such as Dr. Rasmussen.
Crown lengthening is often required when your tooth needs a new crown or restoration. It is also used to correct a "gummy smile". The procedure involves re-contouring the gum tissue and bone around the tooth or teeth in need to create a new tooth-to-gum relationship.
Adults over the age of 35 lose more teeth to gum diseases than from cavities. Periodontal disease is dangerous in that it is often painless. 80% of Americans have periodontal disease by the age of 40, and 80% of patients with the disease are unaware they have it. Treatment consists of a variety of techniques with the common purpose of removing disease and preserving your teeth in a state of health.
