Fillings Crowns and Dentures

No. The implant crown is a totally different system of mechanics than a conventional crown. The implant crown fits & connects to the abutment (which is the "cap" of the screw). The conventional crown is a simple "cap" over a "stump" of a tooth...totally different usage for each.

Nylon is the basic material of the thermoplastic acrylics (denture plastics). It is safe, it is durable, comfortable, and is unbreakable as it is non-rigid.

Standard denture acrylics are made from methyl methacrylate, whose base material is formaldehyde. IF processed correctly (which very few labs bother to do), it is safe, durable, comfortable, and fairly rigid.

And yes, I am a dentist.

An improperly fitted denture can cause serious oral problems. It is their job to give you dentures that fit correctly. You need to go in and demand thet they make you a new set; if they do not, report them to the local dental society.

In Altoona, PA, you can consider visiting local dental clinics or dental schools, which often offer lower-cost services, including dentures. Facilities like the Altoona Dental Center or the Penn Highlands Healthcare Dental Clinic may have payment plans or sliding scale fees based on income. It's advisable to call ahead and inquire about specific pricing, payment options, and any available discounts. Additionally, check for any local dental discount programs or community health initiatives that may assist with costs.

Swelling from a molar tooth being pulled is normal. Take the medication that was prescribed to you and do not chew on that side of your mouth until it is healed.

Because "ALL" dentures are custom made and it is extremely unhygienic to reuse a denture it is never recommended to reuse any part of the dentures.

The dentures should be disposed of. Usually in most cases the undertaker will take care of this unless the person was not wearing the dentures when they deceased.

I'm afraid that in this society, that is impossible. And it makes me sad to say it. Insurance runs the country, and if we're caught without it, we are forced to suffer.

I'm sorry.

Yes it is covered by post dam

It depends on several factors. If the baby tooth is fairly close to being replaced by a permanent tooth, it probably doesn't need to be repaired. On the other hand, if the tooth is abscessed (infected) it needs to be fixed to get rid of the infection. If a baby tooth is lost too soon, it can cause problems for the eruption of the permanent teeth.

One function of baby teeth is to hold the spaces in the jaw open for the permanent teeth to come in. If the space closes, the permanent tooth may not have the room necessary to erupt. This can lead to severe occlusal problems and expensive orthodontic treatment. It is best to seek the advice of a qualified dentist for your particular case.

There are four basic types of denture cleaners, including wipes, tablets, solutions, and pastes. Common brands of denture cleaners that are available to purchase include Polident, Renew Denture Cleaner, and Efferdent.

Depending on your particular situation, your dentures may be adaptable to dental implants. This is where two or more dental implants are surgically placed in the jaw and the denture is modified to 'snap' onto the implants, holding the denture securely. This is a solution to loose fitting dentures that many people like.

You need to find a dentist with extensive experience in dentures and implants for the best possible outcome. Beware of 'bargains' and other low-priced gimmicks. They may be expensive, but properly done implants can worth every penny.

The pain could be due to an ill fitting denture in need of adjustment, if teeth were recently extracted a bone splinter or spur could be the cause. Also a tissue inflammation, bony ridge, or tumor can be the cause. In any case you should see a Dentist to diagnosis the problem.

Not all cavities are yellow. Some cavities are yellow because the outer covering of the tooth has started to dissolve.

—The form of lips

—The naso-labial angle

—The horizontal labial angle

—The effect of nose form and angle of inclination of teeth

—The relationship of the maxillary incisors to the incisive papilla

—The location of lingual gingival margin

—The placement of lower teeth in relation to the lower residual ridge, tongue, cheeks and lips

So far there is no "best" material, there are several options, but they all have their drawbacks. Metals are easy to work with, but look real obvious in your mouth. Porcelain takes longer to make, but looks more natural. Ceramics are even better, but like porcelain takes time. Plastic is real quick and can look quite natural, but don't last long.

To replace an O-ring on a denture, you would typically use ADA code D5867, which stands for "Replacement of lost or broken retentive device." This code covers the replacement of O-rings, clips, or other retentive devices on a denture. Make sure to consult with your dentist or prosthodontist to ensure the proper procedure and billing code are used for your specific situation.

No.

There is very little mercury in a filling. A white filling will have more shrinkage with time which will cause them to need to be replaced, long before a silver filling.

But you should get the tooth fixed right away.

I wouldn't worry too much if I were you. I work as a dental assistant and see this happen all of the time. The soft spot you see is most likely the gum underneath where the tooth used to be. If the entire tooth is missing you will need to get a crown. There is no way to replace a filling without enough tooth there to act as a base for the filling. The crown will probably have to be supported by a bridge which is a metal piece holding the crown in place. If that does not sound like something you want to do then another option is to get a tooth implant. Those are more expensive than a crown and is not typically covered by insurance because it is considered cosmetic. I hope this helps you and try not to worry. Unless there is discoloration in the gums or some type of irritation then you will be fine. I would still get it checked out by your dentist tho because you will need to do something eventually.

A pit is a large cavity that has a peculiar vacuum ability, sucking in plague, while spewing out deadly carbon monoxide as a byproduct of equatorial guineas that manifest themselves in the independent carbines of your gums. Everyone knows what a cavity is!

I would try to get a new impression since your last denture may have been used when you are younger since your mouth was growing at the time.

No!

Denture teeth are composed of three materials Porcelain (ceramic), Methyl Methacrylate, or Composite.

Ceramic materials being the oldest of the three are less common as it is generally considered to have negative interaction when used against natural teeth (enamel).

Methyl Methacrylate is the most common used material today for dentures.

Composite is a colored resin material frequently used in restorative work is recently being used in dentures.
