When you feel insecure about missing teeth, it’s hard to feel confident. If you aren’t happy with your smile, you should consider making an appointment with Daniel W**k DDS. After a consultation, He may recommend using dental implants to permanently replace your missing teeth.

A dental implant is a small man-made titanium fixture that replaces the root of a missing natural tooth. The procedure is very safe and has been widely practiced for decades. Best of all, dental implants look and feel like natural teeth, and you won’t have to do any extra maintenance routines for their upkeep. Just brush your teeth twice daily and floss regularly— the same good habits your dentist recommends for everyone to promote good oral hygiene. For more information about proper brushing techniques and at-home dental contact our office.

Getting dental implants from start to finish usually takes a few months, because your dentist wants to give your body time to heal throughout the process. After two oral surgery appointments, you'll be fitted with a prosthetic tooth that fits your mouth and matches your natural teeth. Most patients report very little pain and discomfort during this procedure.

In addition to providing excellent service, Daniel W**k DDS also offers flexible payment plans, so you don’t have to worry about paying the full cost of dental implants up-front.

Here is a Q & A I get from parents who want to get braces for their child. Contact us for your Consultation 212-867-0345

Question: What is orthodontics and how important are braces to a child’s development.

braces1Answer: Orthodontics is the branch of dentistry that specializes in the diagnosis, pharmacy prevention and treatment of dental and facial irregularities. Braces are appliances or devices used to make these corrections.

Braces use steady, vi**ra gentle pressure over time to move teeth into their proper position. The two main components of braces are the bracket and the arch wire. The bracket is the metal or ceramic placed on each tooth, the arch wire threads through the brackets and at each visit to the orthodontist the wire is bent and as the wire tries to return to its original shape it moves the teeth. At each visit the orthodontist evaluates the teeth and bend the wire in a specific way to achieve the tooth movement that is desired.

Rubber bands and elastics contribute a lot to straighter teeth. Attached to the braces, elastics exert the force that creates the right amount of pressure to move teeth in directions that the braces alone cannot.

Signs that a child might need to see the orthodontist
1. early or late loss of baby teeth
2. difficulty chewing or biting
3. crowding, malpositioned, or blocked out teeth
4. jaws that shift or make sounds
5. biting the cheek or roof of the mouth
6. teeth that do not meet at all
7. jaws and teeth that are out of proportion to the rest of the face
8. finger sucking or pacifier habits continued beyond the age of six.

dental_braces1The American Association of Orthodontists recommends an initial consultation no later than age 7. A child can see the orthodontist at an earlier age if any of the previously stated problems exist especially for finger sucking or tongue thrusting, these conditions can be treated by certain appliances that can be custom made for the child. Early treatment can eliminate the need for more drastic and complicated treatment in the future, including avoiding the need for corrective surgery in some cases.

Benefits of early treatment
1. guide incoming teeth into optimal positions
2. regulate the width of the jaws
3. lower the risk of trauma to prominent front teeth
4. correct harmful sucking habits
5. reduce the likelihood of teeth becoming stuck or impacted under the gums
6. preserve or gain space for arriving permanent teeth
7. guide the growth of the young jaw bones creating a better environment for those new emerging permanent teeth.

braces2Today’s braces are generally less noticeable than those of the past. The brackets can be metal, clear or tooth colored making them almost invisible from a distance. In some cases, brackets can be placed on the back of the teeth ( lingual braces). Modern wires are also less noticeable than their predecessors and are made of “ space age “ materials that exert a steady gentle pressure on the teeth, making the tooth- moving process faster and more comfortable for patients.
Invisalign is a technique that straightens teeth without using brackets and wires. A series of 3-D computer generated ”invisible aligners” are used to move the teeth into their proper position. This technique can only treat cases that require small movements and is usually used with a mature teenager or adult because patient compliance to wear the removable aligners is very important.

Recommendation
braces_6Early intervention by an orthodontist can prevent more complicated dental treatment in later years. By allowing children the opportunity to have a great and beautiful smile can affect their future in a positive way. Children are very concerned about their appearance and it is an acceptable rite of passage to get braces in order to have a great smile. In some communities having braces is a status symbol indicating intelligence and wealth.

Age is not a factor for getting braces, if the bone and gum tissue around the teeth are healthy anybody can have orthodontic treatment. More and more adults are seeking orthodontic treatment, currently 20 % of all orthodontic patients are adults.

Basically everybody can benefit from a nicer, brighter smile..
