Article on Missing Teeth in Athletes Sheds Light on Life-Changing Benefits of Dental Implants, Notes Beverly Hills Periodontics & Dental Implant Center
Los Angeles, CA (PRWEB) March 03, 2016 -- According to an article published February 11th on The Economic Times, losing teeth is an ongoing occupational hazard for pro hockey players. According to Dr. Peiman Soleymani of Beverly Hills Periodontics & Dental Implant Center, missing teeth is a potentially serious concern for athlete and non-athlete alike, but the good news is that the kind of dental implants in Los Angeles and Beverly Hills his practice provides can replace missing teeth, restoring smiles and protecting patient’s health. Dr. Soleymani explains that, while many people may consider missing teeth to be simply a cosmetic issue, dental implants offer more benefits than just filling a gap. In particular, Dr. Soleymani notes, if a tooth has been absent for six months or more, the jaw bone may show signs of atrophy, and other healthy teeth may be affected by the empty space. Additionally, in many cases when patients neglect teeth that may be missing following a serious sports injury, car accident, or health problem, the doctor explains, bone or gum grafting may be required to rebuild atrophied areas of the mouth; so delaying treatment can ultimately complicate the problem.
Dr. Soleymani explains that, because of the societal expectation that everyone has a mouth full of straight, white teeth, many people with missing teeth can feel shy or reluctant to smile in social situations, especially in image conscious locales such as Southern California. Dental implants in Los Angeles and elsewhere, Dr. Soleymani notes, can easily replace the missing teeth and restore not only peoples’ smiles, but their confidence, too. What’s more, Dr. Soleymani explains that, because the technology of cosmetic dentistry and dental implants has advanced greatly over the past few decades, in certain instances, it is now possible to place a dental implant with a temporary crown over it within the same day. For the most part, these crowns look and act just like teeth, unlike the small, removable prosthetic devices that are sometimes used. This means that patients are able to resume their lives, uninterrupted by the concern of missing teeth. However, he notes, because every patient is unique, it is necessary to take his or her medical history into account in order to choose the most appropriate option to replace the missing tooth.
