Whenever possible, a dentist's first course of action is to save his or her patient's teeth. Unfortunately, there are times when saving a tooth is not feasible, and extraction becomes the only solution to the problem. The extraction of a tooth has enormous consequences for the whole dentition. But even when a tooth cannot longer be maintained, this remains possible for the space. By this you avoid that this space is lost and the other teeth commences to shift, and the whole dentition becomes disrupted. The 'Advanced Extraction Therapy™' procedure prevents the loss of jawbone and provides a solid foundation for dental implants, removable dentures,fixed crown & bridgework and other treatments that are recommended by your dentist.
The Advanced Extraction Therapy™ has proven its use and effectivity in over more than 350.000 documented procedures.


 



The best action after tooth extraction!

After extraction of a tooth, not only the tooth is lost, also the adjacent jawbone, were this tooth was merged in disappears. Do not worry, the bone doesn't come out with the tooth. It disappears afterwards in a slow and consistent way. This happens with everybody who loses teeth and even in an increased way when all the teeth are being removed. Within 5 years up until 40 to 60% of the jawbone can be lost. This as well in height as in width. Note beside how the mandibular jawbone seems to have melten away. This is one of the reasons why removable dentures doen' t fit anymore after a certain period. The original dimension is totally changed in a few years time The denture is nolonger supported and it becomes very difficult to eat in a comfortable way, some times it simply breaks.

In addition this loss of bone (resorption) volume keeps continuing also after this first initial 5 years. Per year an average of 1-2% of the bone volume is lost. Remaining teeth will shift and the natural balance of the mouth is disrupted. This is the reason why everybody knows somebody who has troubles with his false denture. At the outside deep wrinkles appear and occur throughout the face. Very quickly you get the looks and appearance of an old person. l Also the sacking of the sinus, with al the related problems can have this as main cause.
