Bristol, PA -- (SBWIRE) -- 08/02/2019 -- Over time, the tops of teeth can erode, losing enamel and dentin and leaving the internal area of the tooth exposed. This erosion will affect not only make teeth look shorter, but can also impact dental health.
The solution is bite reclamation, available from Center City Philadelphia's leading cosmetic dentistry center, Center City Emergency Dentist. The bite reclamation procedure at CCED can reverse years of teeth deterioration, which can be caused by any combination of factors, including acid reflux, bulimia, enamel erosion, alcoholism, and natural long-term abrasion.
When this deterioration reaches a certain level of severity, it can make basic activities, such as chewing, more challenging, or even painful, if the teeth have worn down all the way to the pulp.
The bite reclamation process begins with a consultation to assess the extent of the problem, and determine whether the lower jaw, upper jaw, or both will require the elongation procedure. Once this planning stage has been completed, the treatment itself is the next step.
The treatment relies on the use of fillers to restore the teeth to the length and shape they were before deterioration began. The patient will receive anesthesia to numb the pain of having dental nerves provoked. The recovery process, which generally takes no more than a few weeks, entails the use of antibacterial mouthwash to prevent infections.
Besides the improvement in teeth's appearance, the elimination of tooth pains, and better tooth function, bite reclamation at Philadelphia's leading cosmetic dentists, CCED, can also restore the patient's face to a more youthful appearance by stretching the skin and lessening wrinkles.
