For cleaning in between your teeth, you need to floss your teeth. Step by step procedure to floss your teeth –
Break off about 18 to 24 inches of
dental floss. To hold the floss correctly, wind most of the floss around
both of your middle fingers. Leave only about 1 to 2 inches of floss
for your teeth.
Next, hold the floss taut with your thumbs and index fingers.
Place
the dental floss in between two teeth. Gently glide the floss up and
down, rubbing it against both sides of each tooth. Don’t glide the floss
into your gums. This can scratch or bruise your gums.
As
the floss reaches your gums, curve the floss at the base of the tooth
to form a C shape. This allows the floss to enter the space between your
gums and your tooth.
Repeat the steps as you move from tooth to tooth. With each tooth, use a new, clean section of floss.
Dental Implants are screw type device generally made up of titanium alloy, They are placed in the bone which requires surgical skills. After that we fix crowns or bridges over them to replace the missing tooth or teeth or entire dentition.Cost of Dental Implant procedure in Nagpur generally ranges from Rs 20,000 – Rs 40,000 per Implant.
Cost of Dental Implants depends upon the following factors
1) The Implant system and Implant Company – Some Implant Companies have global presence and have good Research and Development team. These Implant companies continuously work for refinement of their implant system. Some best Implant systems are Stramann, Nobel Biocare, Zimmer etc. We use Active Implants to immediately place crown over it which are costlier. So the cost of Dental Implant depends upon the Implant system and the type of Implant company.
2) If we perform additional surgical procedure like bone grafting, sinus lift procedure, ridge split etc. then the cost of the procedure is added.
3) The type of dental crown or bridge we use- screw retained crown or bridge are costlier than cement retained. Cement retained long span bridges are technically difficult so we have to go for screw retained bridges. Also screw retained crowns are more hygienic and can be easily retrieved in future is any other procedure is required
4) As the number of Dental Implants increase the cost of dental implant procedure also increase. Also as the number of crowns we replace between the Implants increase cost of dental Implant increases.
