Periodontal disease
Periodontal disease is the result of the body's response to pathogens in dental plaque. Various factors affecting the immune system can increase the likelihood of a patient developing periodontal disease.
Tooth decay
Normally, in the mouth, starches and sugars are broken down into acids, which can damage the structure of the teeth. If left untreated, it can progress, causing the teeth to crack, form holes, and if it worsens further, it can cause pain or tooth abscesses, and eventually, the tooth may need to be extracted.
Dental implants solve the problem of tooth loss.
When a patient undergoes tooth extraction, they should receive a replacement tooth. Dental implants are one option that can help patients who have lost a tooth to restore its normal function again.
