2Specialty Dental Services
Dental Procedures that are more involved and are
needed to restore the dentition to its proper
physiologic and esthetic state are considered to
be specialized services. Some of these services
are listed below with a generalized prescription.
Cosmetic services are also considered to be
specialized services.
3The removal of excess or unwanted bone tissue.
4A fixed prosthetic that is placed to fill in the
space of a missing or extracted tooth. In order
to place a bridge the adjacent teeth to the empty
space need to be shaped and reduced in size to
allow for proper placement of a bridge.
5Most commonly known as a cap, is a fixed
prosthetic that protects a tooth from fracturing
when a major part of the tooth is decayed or
broken. In many cases a crown is needed after a
root canal therapy is completed.
6The addition of synthetic or cadaver bone in an
extraction site for preservation, or areas where
addition of bone is necessary before placing an
implant. Sometimes this is needed in the front
for better esthetic results in combination with
veneers or crowns.
7The treatment of an infected nerve inside the
tooth in which all the canals within the root of
a tooth will be cleaned, shaped and filled with a
biocompatible material.
8Titanium rods that are placed in the jaw bone
where a tooth is missing to restore the space for
a crown to be placed or to anchor a loose
denture. Implants vary in size and length and our
Las Vegas Dentist will determine which works best
for you. Depending on the type of implant prices
may vary as well. Be aware that with implants
there is a chance of failure and oral hygiene is
extremely important in the longevity of the
implant.
9A partial or full denture is needed to replace
missing teeth. It consists of mostly acrylic
material and plastic teeth with the addition of
metal base and clasps in case of a partial
denture. There are many types of dentures with
many different prices in the market which varies
according to the material, techniques and lab
technician used to construct the denture.
10Often wrongfully known as a deep cleaning, this
is a treatment for the gums and the underlying
bone. By cleaning the root surfaces of the teeth
under the gum line the gums will heal and the
bone deterioration will stop. This procedure is
done to prevent further bone loss and damage in
the presence of periodontal disease. This
treatment must be followed with every 3 months of
periodontal maintenance or the disease will
return. Keep in mind there is no cure for
periodontal disease. Prevention and maintenance
is the key.
11The jaw joint or Temporomandibular Joint (TMJ)
can be affected by arthritis, bad occlusion and
habits such as ice chewing or excess gum chewing,
etc. Clicking and popping of the jaw joint is
very common and must be addressed to prevent
further damage and if painful in severe cases
treated more aggressively. The joint can also get
locked in an open or closed position. Physical
therapy if often the treatment of choice along
with custom mouth guards. In severe cases surgery
may be necessary. The disease of the TMJ is
referred to as Temporomandibular disorders or TMD.
