Celebrate 2018 the Year of the Dog with a Sparkling Smile

05-02-2018

Chinese New Year is celebrated worldwide. It is one of the most important traditional holidays for the Chinese and is celebrated by everyone cleaning the house thoroughly to sweep away any ill-fortune and to make way for incoming good luck. Windows and doors are adorned with paper messages of good fortune, happiness, wealth and longevity paper.

Eating as a family certainly plays a very important role in all Chinese celebration. Unfortunately for those who are not confident of their smiles or teeth, the obligatory family selfie can be a source of embarrassment. A picture perfect smile is never complete without showcasing a set of healthy and aesthetically appealing teeth.

For those who have missing teeth, they can easily be replaced with dental implants. Not only do missing teeth spoil your smile, but it also affects the rest of your teeth. Missing teeth and unfilled spaces within the mouth, can cause other teeth to drift out of position. This can lead to other dental conditions like a bad bite, gum disease and TMJ disorders

If several of your teeth are missing, then instead of replacing the missing teeth one by one using implants, a bridge restoration can be used to secure the teeth, to give natural looking results. Bridge restorations require a minimum of two implants to remain secure. It avoids the need of preparing the adjacent teeth, as required by a conventional bridge. Once you have the missing teeth replaced, not only will your smile be perfect but you will also be able to clean your teeth effectively and eat/chew the foods that you like with ease.
