How to Solve TMD, & TMJ DISORDER PROBLEMS

Posted in Aesthetic Dentistry, Cosmetic Dentistry, Esthetic Dentist, Full Mouth Reconstruction, Los Angeles, TMD, TMJ, tmj dentist on August 5th, 2010 by admin

Temporomandibular joint disorder, or TMJ, which affects the flexibility and function of the temporal jaw joint and surrounding muscles. Because this area controls bite, speech, chewing, and all other jaw movement, the pain can be severe and very inconvenient.

TMJ has been associated with a number of different causes, but the most common factor is the bite or occlusion itself.

A misaligned bite can place pressure on the jaw joint, forcing the muscles to work overtime in effort to correctly align the upper and lower jaws. this not only compromises the function of the jaw, but it can cause a good deal of fatigue and pain in the facial muscles. Headaches, Toothaches, and jaw clenching, popping, or locking are all common symptoms of TMJ.

TMJ can also occur after a jolting face injury which causes a normally aligned jaw joint to become damaged or repositioned.

In the meantime, alleviating the pain through treating the symptoms can give you some relief. Heating pads or cold compresses can reduce swelling, and limiting your jaw movement can stop the clicking or popping of the jaws. Massages can temporarily relive muscle tension, and medications can reduce inflammation and help you feel more comfortable.

The best way to solve tmj  or tmd discomfort is to find out the root cause of the TMD. In many cases it could be due to a  OCCLUSAL DISEASE, (bad bite), trauma, clenching and grinding.If the over the counter anti inflammatory medications does not alleviate the tmd symptom within couple of days, it is best to consult an expert dentist , or tmj dentist, to gather a complete dental history in conjunction with necessary xrays and impressions of your mouth to determine if it is an occlusal disease discomfort , and if so , what is the most conservative treatment modality.

Links between Gum Disease and Heart Disease in patients.

Posted in Aesthetic Dentistry, Beverly Hills, Cosmetic Dentist, Cosmetic Dentist Los Angeles, Cosmetic Dentistry, Dentist, Gum Disease on July 28th, 2010 by admin

“Periodontitis or gum disease are caused when bacteria from plaque deposits on the teeth and bleeding gums invade tissue and penetrate beneath  the gum-line….. the damaged tissue may become a gateway to the bloodstream, and eventually, the heart and other Systemic Organs.

Patient’s motivation to floss should be greater then ever!

For as long as you can remember, I have been telling you to remember to brush and floss twice a day and show up for your prevention care visits. Thanks to recent studies, your incentive should now be greater than ever. If you suffer from periodontitis (gum disease), or if you are at risk, you should know that research is beginning to show a strong correlation between periodontal disease and heart disease.
Gum disease has not been shown to directly cause heart disease; however, the connection is one that can no longer be ignored. As those who have periodontitis know, the condition is caused when bacteria from plaque deposits on the teeth invade tissue and penetrate beneath the gum-line. When the bacteria start to eat away at the tissue surrounding the teeth, the damaged tissue may become a gateway to the bloodstream, and eventually, the heart.
Imagine a wound of that size on the skin, and you can imagine the variety of bacteria that could be introduced into the bloodstream. The same thing can be happening in the mouths of patients with periodontal disease. The bacteria from the mouth can induce blood clotting, which is pivotal event in most heart attacks and strokes. One study states that “peple with severe periodontal disease had almost twice the risk of developing cardiac disease”.

A second study showed that tooth decay increased the risk for heart disease by one and a half. Further research shows that people who are diabetic are at a greater risk for developing heart disease if they too have periodontal disease. Gingivitis is the inflammation of the gums in which can lead to periodontal disease.

Also remember that bleeding gums or gum infection can be treated with various surgical or non surgical therapy options, and controlled with regular cleaning dental appointments and a proper home care routine of brushing and flossing.

please have your gums checked before commencing any cosmetic dental treatment,including but not limited to  dental veneers, full mouth reconstruction, dental implants, or smile make over.

Cosmetic dentist & porcelain veneers

Cosmetic Dentist, Dr Anthony Mobasser

All you wanted to know about PORCELAIN VENEERS aka dental veneers,or LAMINATES, or DENTAL LAMINATES.
What Are Veneers?

Veneers are thin, custom-made FACING OR LAMINATES that cover the fronts of unsightly teeth. They are crafted from tooth-colored, high-tech materials to portray a natural, bright smile.VENEERS can be made of porcelain or composite material.

How Long Will Veneers Last?

Veneers are intended to last for many years , DEPENDING  on patient’s bite,parafunctional habits (clenching or grinding ) ,  and the necessary preventative dental visits needed. Unlike most bonding materials, (which is porous hence prone to stains ) porcelain veneers will not change color over time. You should consult cosmetict dentist to find out  how long veneers will last in your particular mouth.

How Are Veneers Applied?

The tooth is reshaped and contoured  initially to allow for the added thickness of the veneer. THIS IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN VENEERS AND LUMINEERS. With Lumineers typically no tooth structure  is removed ,however the added porcelain on the tooth without removing any tooth structure initially, will result in a BULKIER OR THICKER OUTCOME.So for DENTAL VENEER  a molded image is taken of the reshaped tooth and sent to a dental laboratory where the veneer is custom-made to fit your mouth. The veneer is applied with adhesive material which bonds it to the original tooth structure.VENEERS SHOULD NOT BE CEMENTED TO THE TOOTH RATHER BONDED TO THE TOOTH,so it becomes one with the reshaped tooth.

Advantages of Veneers

Tooth-Like Appearance
Since veneers are individually sculpted for each patient, it is nearly impossible to tell the difference between a veneer and a natural tooth,however depending on the skill of the cosmetic dentist and the ceramist ,multicolor porcelain layers can be incorporated to each hand crafted veneer,to transform your smile ,to the awsome smile you desire.

High Stain-Resistant
Custom-made veneers resist stains from coffee, tea and cigarette smoke because they are made of high-tech, extremely polishable glass material, the porcelain material resist stain ,much better than composite material ,in which is more porous.

Benefits of Veneers

• A minimal amount of the natural tooth must be altered to fit the veneer.

• Veneers can be matched to make even the darkest teeth appear to be bright white.

• Minor twists and overlaps, as well as small gaps, can be quickly corrected through the use of  porcelain veneers.

In order to have the BEST cosmetic dental implant,a team of  dental implant surgeon, an EXPERT COSMETIC DENTIST, and a master ceramist is necessary, to produce the best cosmetic dental smile!!

After necessary comprehensive examination,including cosmetic and aesthetic work up,xrays,ct scan,impressions and bite analysis, the communication between the patient ,COSMETIC DENTIST, cosmetic implant surgeon,and the ceramist commences.

Please  take a look at the picture below ,in order to produce a natural celebrity smile, with an  esthetic dental implant ,we will review the patient’s case below.
Patient has chosen to place dental bone implant,so he does not have further loss of bone,and can floss regularly ,rather
than placing a porcelain bridge and using a bridge threader (super floss).DENTAL TOOTH IMPLANT was placed on
the central incisor after smile and bone analysis.Implant dentistry might require a ct scan.Cosmetic Implant Dentist should consider
the aesthetic  before hand!!  A full smile analysis,bite analysis and pertinent record taking is vital!!   that is why a porcelain custom abutment (implant post) was placed on top of the implant (rather than titanium abutment , please note that most implants that go in the bone are titanium implants) , to hide the black line
often showing on the porcelain crowns. Since the porcelain post was placed ,a custom porcelain crown was fabricated to mimic the natural central incisor adjacent to the site requiring IMPLANT RESTORATION.

final result ,priceless!!

Snap On Smile, Pros and Cons

Posted in Aesthetic Dentist, Cosmetic Dentist, Cosmetic Dentist Los Angeles, Cosmetic Dentistry, Dentist, Esthetic Dentist, Los Angeles, Los Angeles Cosmetic Dentist, SNAP ON SMILE, Smile Makeover, TMD, TMJ on June 23rd, 2010 by admin

Snap on smile is a removable appliance that goes over the patients teeth, thus you can change the color and shape of teeth.

Having said that ,lets discuss pros and cons as it relates to cosmetic dentistry,performed by cosmetic dentist.

The PROS are: there is no anesthetic involved,it is reversible (if you do not like it ,you do not wear it),usually no drilling involved,dentist can use it as a diagnostic tool for the bite and possibly tmj (tmd),possibility of cosmetic enhancement when it is INDICATED,it can be a precursor to thin dental veneers, lumineers , or porcelain veneers,it can close spaces to a certain extent,overcoming DENTAL PHOBIA,possibly immediate dratification, it is a quick fix to get white smile ,and it is the fraction of the cost of placing 10 plus veneers.

the CONS can be the following:they are fragile,so they can fracture or break,since it goes over your teeth , they are going to appear BULKIER  than your teeth ,they will not have the same look as your natural teeth or a well made porcelain veneer, it is compromised smile makeover , it is not recommended for severe bruxer or clencher ,possibility of fracture does exist.,and it does not last as long of other cosmetic treatments.,it can interfere with phoentics and SPEECH,since they are longer than your own teeth and they are joined.,it is not indicated for people who like their existing length and width of their teeth ,and do not want them altered.

It is my opinion that the AESTHETIC DENTIST or the esthetic dentist should evaluate the patient ,take necessary records ,ask patient needs and wants ,then discuss all options,pros and cons to patient.

If you are interested further,please call 310-550-0383 for your indepth one to one consultation.,to see if snap on smile is for you.

Cosmetic Dentist & Smile Makeover ,Golden Proprtions.

Posted in Cosmetic Dentist, Cosmetic Dentistry, Dental Veneers, Dentist, Esthetic Dentist, Los Angeles, Porcelain, Porcelain Veneers, Smile Makeover, Teeth Whitening, golden proportions on April 27th, 2010 by admin

Besides the width of the tooth being %75 to %80 of the length,we also have a measurement generally to find out, what the length of the upper front tooth should be. How ? The cosmetic dentist or the Esthetic Dentist performing smile makeover should measure from the depth of the vestibule to the incisal edge of the front tooth,that measurement is usually around 22 milimeters (mm).,for ideal length of the upper front tooth,in which dictates your smile makeover initial stage.
Every patient should know that lighter teeth ,reveal bigger teeth,and darker teeth reveal smaller teeth! so just by teeth whitening, (bleaching teeth ),placing porcelain laminates or having porcelain veneers done ,automatically your teeth will look bigger and eventually your smile will be more zygomatic.
Because of this point mentioned ,i generally do not recommend having 6 teeth veneered ,or 6 (dental veneers )done. Your canine teeth already are bigger and darker than the rest of your teeth,if the patient changes the color to a more whiter desired color ,those 6 teeth will stick out like a sore thumb,and hides the rest of teeth, specially when you are looking at the smile from the side (the back teeth will look much smaller).
Having said that, it is vital that your cosmetic dentist ,plans your smile makeover by taking various photos and study models ,to plan the final outcome of your tratment.
Please do not hesitate to call us at 310-550-0383 to make your cosmetic ,one on one consultation appointment,with Dr. Anthony Mobasser.

Porcelain Veneers Cost? , per Tooth,& Smile

Posted in Aesthetic Dentistry, Cosmetic Dentist, Cosmetic Dentistry, Dental Veneers, Dentist, Porcelain, White Teeth on April 21st, 2010 by admin

That pearly smile far outweighs the cost of the porcelain veneers!!
Porcelain Veneers cost from $1000 to $5000 per tooth.
Usually they last from 7 to 15 years,although i have some patients i have placed them on 26 years ago,and still doing great.
the cost factor depends on:
1.artistic eye and ability of the cosmetic dentist who performs the procedure.
2.The artistic hands of the master ceramist fabricating the porcelain veneer.
3.The time of delivery of the Dental Veneer.
4.The combination of porcelain materials used.
5.The number of teeth being done.,generally speaking the cost is less per tooth ,if patient chooses to do the entire smile.
6.The location of cosmetic dentist.
7.The severity of the case, i.e the original  tooth color,shape ,the existing bite,and amount of enamel remaining,and the adjacent teeth in proximity to the tooth needing veneer.
Every porcelain veneer is different,just like every painting is different!
Although porcelain veneers can be pricey,you usually get what you pay for,and the benefits far outweighs the cost.

Porcelain Veneers (Dental Veneers) vs Crowns

Posted in Aesthetic Dentistry, Best Cosmetic Dentist, Beverly Hills, Beverly Hills Cosmetic Dentist, Cosmetic Dentist, Cosmetic Dentist Beverly Hills, Cosmetic Dentist Los Angeles, Cosmetic Dentistry, Crowns, Los Angeles, Los Angeles Cosmetic Dentist, Porcelain, Porcelain Laminates, Porcelain Veneers, Smile Makeover on April 20th, 2010 by admin

 A word of advice! When it comes to smile makeover,or new cosmeticdentistry  procedure;

It is my opinion to stay conservative as much as possible ,when it comes to tooth removal!!
once your tooth is cut,the  g-d given tooth structure is gone.
Dental crowns usually require 360 degree preperation,i.e all around the tooth,vs veneer or dental veneer require at MOST 180 degree preperation,meaning the in side if your tooth is not even touched,meaning less tooth structure is removed,therefore your teeth are not weakend as much as a crown preperation (porcelain cap).
Due to above facts, if there is any debate to do porcelain veneers vs. porcelain crowns ,it is always best to do veneers, (laminates)!!
You can always go from porcelain veneer to porcelain crown or cap!!,but you can never go from a crown to veneer!!
remember this!!
