Question
Answer Header & Date
Answer Snippet
I Had Tooth #18 Extracted 20-25 Yrs Ago. Can I Now Have It Replaced with an Implant or is It Too L
Dental Implant Placement
Jul 15, 2013
One of the reasons your dentist is telling you to hold of is because they probably want to give you at least one functional chewing side on the right, before addressing the left side. Even though you lost your tooth a long time ago, it doesn’t necessarily mean you don’t have enough bone for implant placement. This greatly varies between individuals. In order to establish whether you have sufficient bone or not, I would recommend taking a CT Scan (3D x-ray) and have it…
What is the Best Procedure for my Gummy Smile?
Gummy Smile
Jul 15, 2013
Gummy smile can be or skeletal (skull growth) or dental (short teeth) origin, or a combination of both. Skeletal cases are treated with orthognathic surgery or can be helped with a less invasive lip repositioning (Lip lowering) technique. Dental cases are addressed with a crown lengthening procedure. In your case, judging from your photos, the gummy smile is of skeletal origin. If orthognathic sugery is too invasive and costly for you, look into lip repositioning…
Smoking and Dental Implants with and Without Bone Grafts
Smoking and Bone Grafts
Jun 12, 2013
Smoking can adversely affect the success of dental implants. It is protocol to quit smoking at least 2 weeks prior to implant placement, though longer periods of time can certainly be beneficial.

Please be aware, that formed smoking habits may have permanent damages to your tissues even after quitting. That said, patient’s who smoke still get dental implants. However, your Board Certified Periodontist may choose longer healing periods and/or a conservative surgical…

Dental Implants with Bone Loss on Jaw?
Dental Implants and Bone Loss
Jun 12, 2013
Even when bone loss is severe, it is possible to augment bone and place dental implants in most cases. Usually major bone augmentation is done with patient’s own bone, allograft bone material or a combination of boss. Emdogain in particular is an enamel matrix protein that will not be significant for this procedure. In order to evaluate the outcome, your Periodontist must look at the amount of horizontal and vertical bone loss, the anatomy of the defect, and then treat/erradicate…
What Dental Implants Should I Choose To Be Proactive for Face Aging?
Implants to Fight Aging
Apr 23, 2013
It is very difficult to answer this question without proper diagnostic information. Definitely, if you have crows feet or drooping around the upper and lower lip, then adding a flange (base) around dental implants may serve as support, evening out lines and creating a younger appearance. Implant brand will not be a deciding factor here. I suggest searching for a Board Certified Prosthodontist and Periodontist for proper evaluation and mock up of the treatment outcome.
I Dip and my Gums Seem to Be Receding on my Lower Left K9 Tooth Will Ever Fall Out?
Gum Recession and Tooth Loss with Dipping
Apr 23, 2013
Dipping can definitely contribute to gum recession as it traumatizes gums continuously. If recession progresses enough, you may eventually loose the tooth. FYI, companies add polyester shards to tobacco to irritate and create wounds in gums for higher uptake of nicotine. Besides gums recession, dipping can significantly increase chance of oral cancer. I would definitely recommend quitting your habit ASAP and seeing a Board Certified Periodontist to diagnose and treat…
Do I Have to Go to a Cosmetic Dentist For a Gum Lift?
See a Periodontist for Gum Issues
Apr 15, 2013
A board certified periodontist should be your first choice for a gum lift. Cosmetic dentistry is not a specialty. Cosmetic dentists are general dentists that have a preference for treating patients with cosmetic concerns. A periodontist is a specialist that is trained in treating gum recession.

Best,

Dr. Krivitsky
