Your First Visit with a Prosthodontist

Every patient and every prosthodontic treatment is different. That’s why your GMDG Prosthodontist will sit down with you to thoroughly review your medical history, and listen carefully to your concerns and expectations. If your prosthodontic needs are relatively straightforward and all your questions are answered to your satisfaction, we’ll use this first visit to conduct a general dental examination (including radiographs if needed) and review your treatment options along with estimated fees, number of appointments needed and any post-operation care. However, if your problem is more complex, we may require additional appointments to complete your full consultation and treatment.

Please make sure you bring the following to your first appointment:

• Your referral slip
• X-rays from your referring dentist (if applicable)
• A complete list of any medications you are currently taking (including any herbal remedies)
• Dental insurance information (if applicable)

Please note, all patients under 18 must be accompanied by a parent or guardian.

Full mouth Rehabilitation

Full mouth rehabilitation is a comprehensive dental treatment plan that aims to restore the function and aesthetics of the entire mouth. This type of treatment is typically recommended for patients who have extensive damage, decay, or missing teeth, or who suffer from chronic dental problems. Full mouth rehabilitation can involve a range of dental procedures, including dental implants, crowns, bridges, veneers, and dentures, as well as periodontal treatments and orthodontics. The goal of full mouth rehabilitation is to provide patients with a healthy, functional, and beautiful smile, while also addressing any underlying dental issues that may be affecting their oral health.

All-On-Four Planning and Restoration

All-On-Four Planning and Restoration is a dental implant procedure that is designed to replace a full arch of missing teeth using only four dental implants. This innovative procedure provides patients with a permanent, fixed solution for missing teeth that looks, feels, and functions like natural teeth.

Implant Pre-Surgical Planning

Implant pre-surgical planning is an essential aspect of the dental implant process, as it helps to ensure the success and longevity of the implant. The pre-surgical planning stage involves a thorough examination of the patient’s dental and medical history, as well as a comprehensive evaluation of the patient’s oral health and jawbone structure.

Consultation and Treatment

Dental consultation and treatment are essential components of maintaining good oral health. During a consultation, a Prosthodontist will examine your teeth and gums, assess your dental history, and discuss any concerns you may have. Based on this information, the Prosthodontist will recommend a course of treatment tailored to your individual needs. This may include preventive care such as cleanings and exams, restorative procedures such as fillings or crowns, or cosmetic treatments to enhance the appearance of your smile. At Georgian Mall Dental Group, our skilled and compassionate dental professionals provide comprehensive consultation and treatment services to help you achieve and maintain optimal oral health. Contact us today to schedule your consultation and take the first step towards a healthy, beautiful smile.

Frequently asked questions

You can start cleaning your baby’s mouth even at a young age, before getting their first teeth. Simply wipe their gums and teeth area with a clean, damp washcloth.

Many parents don’t realize that those “healthy alternative” such as fruit snacks are actually worse for their child’s oral health – because it sticks to the teeth longer than something like chocolate that is easier to wash away. A best practice is to try to minimize sugary foods. Look for healthier options such as: cheese cubes and carrots.

Plastic and rubber chew toys aren’t your only option to ease your baby’s teething pain. A cold, damp washcloth can also help numb the ache and inflammation, while a gentle massage can also help relieve the pain.

A Pediatric Dentist specializes in children’s oral health, and can help accommodate dental fears and anxiety. To help them stay calm, or when the procedure warrants, we can consult with you on solutions such as laughing gas, oral sedation and general anesthesia (dentistry asleep)

Avoid giving your child milk or juice in their bottle before nap and bedtime because the sugars will stay on their teeth; instead, make a routine out of using a washcloth to gently clean their mouth before they go “nighty night.”

1. Handle the tooth carefully and do not touch the root.

2. If the tooth is dirty, hold by the crown and rinse with milk. (or water if you don’t have milk)

3. Keep the tooth moist – drop it in a glass of milk, or have your child spit in a cup and store the tooth in their saliva. 4. If your child has calmed down, you can try slipping the tooth back into its socket (but don’t try to force it); otherwise keep it moist in the glass of milk or saliva.

5. See a specialist at Georgian Mall Dental Group as soon as possible.


TIP.

When you see a dentist within 1 hour of the tooth being knocked out, you dramatically increase the chances of the tooth being saved.
