With the American population living longer, seniors' oral health has become an important issue, as has the widespread problem of elder abuse. Every year more than 2.5 million older Americans may be victims of elder abuse, and in some cases dentists serve as the first line of defense, according to a report in the May/June 2005 issue of General Dentistry, the clinical, peer-reviewed journal of the Academy of General Dentistry (AGD).
Sedation with Nitrous Oxide
Sometimes a tooth may have to be extracted, as decay or damage is too extensive to save it. A dental implant is the perfect solution, but if there isn't sufficiently strong bone to support it, an implant will not work. Almost immediately after extraction, the bone mass will start to recede. This presents a problem for an implant; however, we can fill the area with a bone graft for preservation of the bone. Even if you decide not to get a dental implant, grafting will significantly help to reduce bone loss. This is an important measure in support of your dental arch structure and overall support of your teeth.
No longer does a tooth with root problems need to be extracted. It is now known that it is better to save a tooth than extract it to avoid problems with bone loss and shifting teeth as well as detracting from a person's appearance.
