Patient Education
At Mainline Dental Arts, we believe that understanding your dental care helps you make confident, informed decisions. Below are explanations of common treatments and dental concerns.
Periodontal Therapy
Periodontal therapy focuses on treating gum disease. Gum disease begins with inflammation (gingivitis) and can progress to bone loss if left untreated. Treatment may include deep cleanings (scaling and root planing), improved home care routines, and ongoing maintenance visits. Early treatment helps prevent tooth loss and protects your overall health.
Pregnancy & Gum Disease
Hormonal changes during pregnancy can make gums more sensitive and prone to inflammation. Some patients experience pregnancy gingivitis, which can cause swelling, redness, and bleeding. Maintaining good oral hygiene and regular dental visits during pregnancy is important for both mother and baby.
Dental Implants
Dental implants are a long-lasting solution for replacing missing teeth. An implant is a small titanium post placed in the jawbone that acts as a replacement root. After healing, a custom crown is attached to restore function and appearance. Implants look, feel, and function like natural teeth.
Dental Implants – High-Tech Tooth Replacement
Modern implant dentistry uses advanced digital imaging and precise treatment planning to ensure optimal placement and long-term success. This technology allows for safer procedures, improved comfort, and predictable results.
Are You a Candidate for Dental Implants?
Most healthy adults with sufficient jawbone density are candidates for dental implants. Good oral hygiene and overall health are important factors. During your consultation, we evaluate your bone structure, medical history, and goals to determine the best treatment option for you.
Consequences of Missing Teeth
Missing teeth can lead to shifting of surrounding teeth, bite problems, bone loss, and changes in facial appearance. Replacing missing teeth helps maintain proper alignment, preserves jawbone structure, and restores confidence in your smile.
Dental Implant FAQs
Dental implants are designed to be a permanent solution when properly cared for. The procedure is performed with local anesthesia, and most patients report minimal discomfort. Healing times vary, but implants have a high success rate and can last many years with good oral hygiene and regular dental visits.
