Surgical Care from Dr. Banda

May 3, 2014

Dr. Banda is an experience oral surgeon in Bloomfield Hills. He offers exceptional implant care, plus surgical care for other issues related to implant dentistry. Examples of this include:

  • Extractions
  • Hard and Soft Tissue Contouring
  • Bone Grafts
  • Sinus Lifts
  • Sub-Antral Augmentation

In the next few posts, we’re going to look at each one and explain what relationship they have with dental implants. For the rest of this post, we want to talk more about dental implants and how unique it is that Dr. Banda places and restores them.

Few restorative services are as effective as dental implants. What makes them so effective? It has to do with how they’re structured. Our natural teeth have a crown on top, which is the part that’s visible above your gums, and a root underneath that anchors the tooth to the jaw. When you lose a tooth, you lose both parts.

Dental implants restore what you’ve lost with a new, custom-made crown, bridge, partial, or full denture anchored by one or more titanium implant posts, which act like prosthetic roots. But besides anchoring your new teeth to your smile, your implants will also nourish your jaw by stimulating the growth of new bone tissue—the second important job of tooth roots.
