Before: Botched Dental Implant Surgery. Implants are made of titanium and have a intrinsic metal color. The gum may appear darker or more grey in the following situations: 1. If your gum tissue is really thin with transparency allowing the metal color to come through. 2. If the implant is placed too close to the gym tissue level. 3. Poor surgical approach. 4. If there is gym loss along with gum tissue recession allowing implant to show through. In this case it was a poor surgical approach. #DrSalamati #DentalImplants #Bonegraft #Tissuegraft #Perio #Periodontist #BeverlyHills #LA #California #Perionews

There are so many reasons to say “Yes!” to dental implants. Common questions: Will I be able to eat normally during the healing process? Yes. -In most situations, you may eat what you like. You may be asked to avoid chewing in the area where the implants are placed for a short period after surgery, but once that time has passed, you can chew your food as a usual. Can I get a temporary tooth to fill the gap during healing? Yes. -In most instances, you can be provided with a temporary tooth to fill the area of the missing crown while the implant is healing. Your dentist will recommend the option for a temporary that is best suited for your situation. Is dental implantation a common surgical procedure? Yes. -This procedure has been performed for decades on millions of patients. Implant specialists have extensive experience and documented clinical success for more than 30 years. Is the procedure relatively pain-free? Yes. -Many patients report that having a tooth extracted is more traumatic than having an implant placed. The procedure is usually performed in the dental office under local anesthesia. #GumDisease #Periodontist #Perio #DentalHygiene #BeverlyHills #LosAngeles #DrSalamati

#Periodontitis, also known as gum disease is set of inflammatory diseases affecting the tissues surrounding the teeth. Periodontitis involves progressive loss of the alveolar bone around the teeth, and if left untreated, can lead to the loosening and subsequent loss of teeth. #GumDisease #periodontist #perio #beverlyhills #losangeles

Tooth brushing is the act of scrubbing teeth with a toothbrush equipped with toothpaste. Since only two thirds of the outer tooth can be reached by a toothbrush, interdental cleaning (with floss or an interdental brush) can usefully accompany tooth brushing. Together, these two activities are the primary means of cleaning teeth, one of the main aspects of oral hygiene. #implantsguy #drsalamati #periodontist #dentalhygiene

#DrSalamati loves the kids! Set up before his presentation at #WiseElementary. How can children keep their teeth healthy? 1. Start good oral habits early. Teach kids to brush at least twice a day with fluoride toothpaste and to floss regularly. 2. Get enough fluoride. Regular use of fluoride toughens the enamel, making it harder for acid to penetrate. 3. Limit or avoid certain foods. #Crest #Colgate #OralB #Dentist #Dentalimplants #BeverlyHills

An impression will be taken and the final crown will be ordered from the lab by your doctor. 5. Final crown- Shen the final crowns is returned from the lab, you will come in, the temporary will be removed, and the final crown will be put in place.
