Taking care of oral health is something important that is yet ignored by many people. As teeth play an important role in food chewing in everyday life, most oral health conditions are caused by eating food. Food particles stuck in the mouth can lead to many problems, such as decayed teeth, bad breath and swollen gum which can finally cause tooth loss.
These following habits that are bad for the oral health should be avoided:
Smoking and drinking
Chewing hard food, such as beans and ice cubes
Not cleaning the oral cavity
Consuming sweets
Brushing teeth in a wrong way
Not cleaning teeth regularly with dental floss
Drinking tea or coffee
Regularly taking care of the oral health will keep the teeth strong and increase their longevitiy. Apart from those mentioned above, there are some other habits that cause long-term health issues. That is why a dental checkup should be done every six months. Regular checkups will help keep teeth and the oral cavity healthy.

Nowadays, dental veneers are popular among actors, singers, beauty queens and net idols who need to be confident when smiling or talking with a great personality. Veneers are a cosmetic dentistry innovation that solves problems with teeth that look yellow, dull or unclean. The technology closes tooth gaps and provides tooth alignment. It works with both cracked and chipped teeth. Most veneers are made from thin custom-made ceramic shells. They look natural like real teeth and are placed at the front of teeth. Veneers do not affect food chewing in any way. Veneers last around 10-12 years, depending on the oral care and hygiene of each person.

There are many causes of tooth loss, such as untreated tooth decay and gum disease. This causes problems in everyday life, including food chewing and no confidence while smiling. Therefore, “dental implants” are one suitable choice of treatment.
Dental Implant Process
1. Doing oral health checks
Oral health checks are the first thing that a dentist does. X-Rays or CT-Scans may be recommended for thorough oral assessment. An initial treatment plan and assessment of treatment duration are made in this step.
2. Performing dental implant procedure
After the dentist has made a treatment plan, the dentist will locate where to insert dental implants in the jawbone. After that, the gum will be cut open and holes will be drilled into the bone to insert the implants. The recovery period is around 1-2 months. During this period, the bone will heal and attach to the implants.
3. Putting on dental crowns or inserting artificial teeth
After the bones have attached to the dental implants in the recovery period, the dentist will make an appointment with the patient to put on dental crowns or insert artificial teeth. They will replace the real teeth that have been lost. With the new teeth, the patient can chew food normally.
4. Follow-ups
After the new teeth have been placed, the dentist will schedule a follow-up with the patient to assess the effectiveness of the implants as well as to give warnings and recommendations on how to take care of the implants. Although dental implants can function like natural teeth, if the oral cavity is not properly cleaned, problems may follow.

Gum disease is caused by inflamed gums. Although in the initial stage the disease tends to cause only slight pain, it should not be left untreated as the disease may spread and finally lead to tooth loss. The gum inflammation is caused by plaque buildup. Patients who have gum disease and need to have teeth removed can stay worry-free as now there is one dental innovation that allows their lost teeth to be completely replaced. That innovation is dental implants, which resemble natural teeth. Dental implants are made from titanium which is biocompatible with the human body. For patients who have lost teeth due to gum disease, after the gum inflammation has been treated and put under control, dental implants are one choice of treatment that most dentists recommend to replace the lost teeth.

DIGITAL DENTISTRY: A MORE PRECISE & LESS INVASIVE IMPLANT PLACEMENT PROCEDURE
Dental Implant is an excellent way to replace a missing tooth. This technique became a widespread and acceptable treatment modality and can provide a beautiful, natural-looking appearance. This procedure is safe; however, it requires fusing the implants into the jaw through oral surgery which can damage nearby vital structures.
Fortunately, the use of digital dentistry instead of the traditional technique enables the dentist to know the exact location of vital structures including nerves, teeth roots, bone and sinuses. This can reduce the risk of unexpected complications during surgery as well as allowing the dentist to know exactly where the implant should be placed.
The Role of Digital Dentistry in Implant Surgery
Nowadays, we are very lucky that the digital age of dentistry has brought more innovative dental techniques. Furthermore, dental implant placement is more efficient with The Computer-Guided Implant Surgery which was designed to be more precise and less invasive.
The Computer-Guided Implant Surgery is a great advancement in dental implant surgery and treatment planning. This system gathers accurate information about the anatomy of the jaw in 3D presentation. The dentist is able to locate and identify important internal structures through in 3D as well as gather information about bone quality and quantity. The detailed scan images of the oral structures can be used to explain the dental implant procedure to patient and allow the dentist to make a precise treatment plan and create a more accurate dental implant placement.
Moreover, studies found that an error of The Computer-Guided Implant Surgery can occur averagely 0.7-1 mm which is a very rare error compared to conventional method of implantation. This process provides greater patient satisfaction, health, and recovery; and it helps to simplify the treatment process.
Computer-Guided Implant Surgery: How the Process Works?
The dentist evaluates the site for dental implant placement.
Create a 3D digital scan of the patient’s oral structure using Intraoral Scanner.
Then the 3D scanned images will be used for planning implant placement.
With computer-guidance, the dentist can determine the very best placement for the implant.
Advantages of Computer-Guided Implant Surgery
Prevent critical vital structures injuries.
The time required for implant surgery can be substantially reduced.
Increase the accuracy of implant placement.
Creates a good understanding of the treatment plan between dentist and patient. However, the success of implant surgery and placement will not be achieved by the computer program alone, but it is important to be performed by an experienced dentist for best results.
