Sharjah Dental Implant News

Mr. Usama a young ambitious fellow visited me  with a broken upper front  tooth due to trauma to the tooth.  After thorough history and examination we saw the crown of upper front incisor had broken and the root was retained inside with no injury or damage to any surrounding structures. The broken tooth was non restorable hence we thought of replacing the tooth with prosthesis( artificial tooth).
After a detailed on discussion on all possible option comparing pros & cons of replacing the missing tooth with dentures, bridge &  implants; Mr. Usama wanted to go for the best treatment with long term predictability and economical, Hence i suggested him to go ahead with implants as it will be an independent standing structure as good as your natural teeth without compromising adjacent healthy natural teeth. Dental implants are the latest and best way to replace your missing single tooth to multiple teeth. Multiple teeth replacement using implants can be either fixed or removable with a very good stability giving a very natural appearance helping regain that confidence. Also they are economical in the long run as they do not tend to get cavities or root canal treatment only regular cleaning.
Mr. Usama agreed to my suggestion and after thorough planning and investigation we removed the remaining piece of the tooth and placed implant the same day with minimum discomfort and trouble to patient. He also walked out of the clinic smiling with a temporary tooth in place.
After adequate healing we replaced the temporary tooth with a permanent tooth.
Mr. Usama was instructed the post op care and maintenance for implant. He was satisfied with the result.

By Dr. Alok Mehta, BDS,MDS

Mr. Osman, a young and ambitious individual, came to me with a broken upper front tooth resulting from trauma. Upon conducting a comprehensive history and examination, we discovered that the crown of his upper front incisor was fractured, while the root remained intact without any harm to the surrounding structures. Since the broken tooth was beyond repair, we considered replacing it with a prosthesis, specifically an artificial tooth.

DENTAL IMPLANT

After engaging in a thorough discussion, weighing the advantages and disadvantages of various options such as dentures, bridges, and implants, Mr. Osman expressed his desire for the most effective, long-lasting, and cost-efficient treatment. Consequently, I recommended implants as the optimal choice. Implants serve as independent structures, mimicking the functionality and appearance of natural teeth, without compromising the integrity of adjacent healthy teeth. They represent the most advanced and successful method for replacing single or multiple missing teeth. Multiple teeth replacements using implants can be either fixed or removable, providing excellent stability and a remarkably natural aesthetic, ultimately restoring confidence. Furthermore, implants prove to be economical in the long run, as they are not prone to cavities or requiring root canal treatments, requiring only regular cleaning.

Mr. Osman accepted my suggestion, and after careful planning and assessment, we promptly removed the remaining piece of the broken tooth and placed the implant on the same day, ensuring minimal discomfort for the patient. As a result, he left the clinic with a temporary tooth in place, leaving him smiling.

Following an appropriate healing period, we replaced the temporary tooth with a permanent one. I provided Mr. Osman with post-operative care instructions and guidelines for maintaining his implant. He expressed satisfaction with the outcome of the procedure, appreciating the restored appearance and functionality of his tooth.
