Zhuhai Professional Dentist - General Practitioner Director Xie Lihua - Q&A Session

We collected and screened some dental knowledge that most patients are concerned about and doubted, and specially invited Director Xie Lihua, a general practitioner from Zhuhai Weigang Dental Chain, to explain to us the doubts.

1. Ice compress or heat compress after Du Yagen?

The pain after the root is normal. If the pain is caused by the hollow of the tooth root after the tooth nerve is extracted, you can use ice packs, but if it is traumatic pain, you can take painkillers.

2. What is the complete restoration process for immediate loading? Are there any advantages over traditional farming?

Immediate weight bearing is performed immediately after a tooth is implanted. Immediate load bearing generally occurs on the front teeth. The posterior teeth were restored with traditional dental implants. The difference between immediate weight-bearing and traditional implant treatment is the repair time, but it can only be done when the bone is good.

3. What is the whole process of periodontal basic treatment?

Basic periodontal treatment is periodontal scaling, which is usually manual scaling. CT is used to evaluate bone defects. The CT is used to determine how many teeth to scrape. Generally, periodontitis is a single tooth, and it is enough to scrape cleanly. Apply the medicine 1-2 times.

Periodontal scaling is divided into 4 areas, and sometimes one area needs to be scaled 2-3 times, so periodontal scaling requires up to 6-7 follow-up visits. Periosteal bone powder is needed if there is a lot of bone loss in 1-4 visits.

4. How to choose the tooth position of All-on-4?

The tooth position of All-on-4 is generally the 3rd and 5th teeth on the left side, and the 3rd and 5th teeth on the right side.
