Having crooked, gapped or misplaced teeth can be embarrassing for people of all ages. While most tooth issues are corrected at a young age, it is possible that some adults may need to have their teeth corrected. We here at CCED have long been the top choice for teeth straightening services in Philadelphia. Our patients have two choices when it comes to having their teeth straightened: braces and Invisalign. There are many benefits of opting for Invisalign. Some of those advantages include:

No matter if the cause of tooth loss is due to an accident, oral surgery, or a necessary extraction due to a dangerous infection, having teeth pulled is certainly not something most individuals look forward to. After the loss of teeth, dentures have always been the traditionally common method for filling in 

the gaps and giving patients at least the appearance of a full set of functioning teeth. That is, however, until now. 

With our cutting-edge Philadelphia dental implant dentistry services, our oral-experts at CCED have the knowledge and tools to transform any toothless smile back into the strong set of chompers their patients once knew. After tooth loss, leaving a gap unfilled for too long will not only screw up the spacing of the other teeth, it will also heighten a patient’s likelihood of developing an infection or gum disease. We encourage patients to turn to our team of experts sooner rather than later to restore their smile and overall oral health with any of our dental implant services.

The Dental Implant Process with CCED

• –First, our dentists will assess whether you’re a good candidate for implants; patients with gum disease often require further treatment before the procedure.
• –Next, we’ll determine which implant is best for you, endosteal (into the bone) or subperiosteal (on top of the bone)
• –Then under local anesthesia, CCED’s dentists will make a small incision and insert the permanent implant, and you’re all done!
• –After the recovery process is complete, you’ll return to CCED for follow-up appointments to ensure your jaw bone is healing properly.

We’ve become one of the leading providers of procedures from dental implants to emergency wisdom teeth removals in Philadelphia because we always make our patients’ comfort and well-being the highest priority. With that being said, if you have a dental appointment coming up, or you’re thinking about booking one, there’s a couple of things you can take into consideration before you come visit us that we hope will make your visit even more comfortable.

Book the Appointment When You Need It

With dental care, it’s important that you don’t put off the inevitable. In many cases, the longer you wait, the more pain you’ll have to endure while waiting and wondering whether to book an appointment. Waiting too long may make it more difficult to fix the issue, so please try to contact us as soon as you notice the problem.

Transfer Dental Records

If this is your first appointment with us, have your old dental office transfer their records to us in order to ensure a smooth transition.

Communicate

If you have any concerns or questions, please don’t hesitate to tell us. We would love to work together with you to find the most comfortable way to address all of your concerns. The same applies to your dental problem: the more comprehensive information you can provide us, the better we can help. Consider sitting down and writing a list of dental issues you’ve dealt with in the last six months or so to make sure you don’t forget to mention them.

On the Day of the Appointment

We recommend you avoid beverages with caffeine or sugar on the day of your appointment, and if you take any medication or vitamins, it’s good to have a list of them with you. Similarly, if you have any questions about the procedure or what to do after it, it’s always better to write them down and bring them with you to make sure you don’t forget. You should also inform your dentist of any changes in your health, particularly if you’ve gotten pregnant.

Practicalities

For your own comfort, try to get a good night’s sleep before the visit and wear something you’re comfortable in. We also recommend that you brush and floss your teeth before you arrive for the appointment and that you arrive a little early to have time to complete forms and take a moment to relax.
