Artistic restoration
Artistic restoration of teeth refers to new restoration technologies. The essence of artistic restoration is the use of dental crowns and veneers. Such a procedure eliminates defects that could arise due to damage, chipping or destruction of the tooth. Artistic restoration pays special attention to the selection of a suitable color of tooth enamel.
Artistic restoration does not take much time and can be done in one visit to the dentist. The main advantage of this method is the aesthetic appearance of the restored tooth, which is no different from the rest of the teeth.
Recovery after tooth extraction
Restoration after tooth extraction should be carried out by a professional dentist. Thus, the entire restoration process begins with a detailed examination of the patient's teeth and taking impressions. If the dentist finds any problems with the teeth, they must be treated before restoration. This is very important, since an infection may occur during surgical intervention during tooth installation.
When restoring a tooth after its extraction, dentists most often offer patients to install a prosthesis on a pin. Such an artificial tooth looks like a real one and completely replicates the anatomical features of the tooth that was extracted.
Recovery after wisdom tooth removal
Recovery after wisdom tooth extraction is a rather unpleasant and lengthy process. On average, rehabilitation takes from five to nine days. The gums begin to heal in about a month, but this is subject to the dentist's recommendations for treatment. But full restoration will take at least four to six months.
After surgical removal of a wisdom tooth, bleeding may occur, so the dentist inserts a cotton ball with a disinfectant solution into the tooth socket. The cotton ball must be firmly clamped with the teeth and held for at least 20 minutes. The recovery course is based on rinsing the affected area. In some cases, the dentist may prescribe a course of antibiotics so that the wound in the mouth does not begin to rot or become inflamed, but heals faster. In addition to treatment, it is necessary to review the diet. For a while, give up hard, hot or cold food, so as not to aggravate the condition of the already sore gums.
Restoration of gums after tooth extraction
Restoration of the gum after tooth extraction depends on complications. If the tooth was not completely removed, i.e. a piece of the tooth remains in the gum, this can cause inflammation and suppuration of the gum. In this case, the patient will have to undergo another dental operation to remove the tooth fragments.
In order for the gum to recover quickly, it is necessary to follow a number of simple but effective rules. First of all, reduce the load on the gum and the socket of the extracted tooth. Eat soft foods that will not cause injury to the wound. Also, for a while, you will have to give up hard foods and foods with small grains, as they can get into the wound of the extracted tooth and cause inflammation. Do not stick your tongue into the wound, this can cause inflammation of the gum. In order for the gum not to hurt, you need to rinse regularly. And when brushing your teeth, avoid touching the affected area.
