- Crowns“I went to three dentists about my worn down incisors -- they were getting really thin. Dr.Gierman was the only one who explained the cause of the problem and all the treatment options. I selected high noble metal crowns with porcelain in front, which she installed three weeks ago. She did an outstanding job, the crowns are very substantial, and they look great!

- DenturesThe use of dental implants has increasingly become a popular solution for patients who have one or more missing teeth. This is because implants offer a long-lasting replacement option for missing teeth, which is preferred over bridges or dentures due to their natural look and feel. Moreover, implants tend to be more durable compared to other alternatives.
- Dental ImplantsA dental implant is an ideal tooth restoration for people who are missing one or more teeth for reasons like injury or periodontal disease.

- Bone GraftingA person with periodontitis is not a good candidate for dental implants due to the potential for infection around the implant, which can lead to implant failure. However, after treatment, dental implants can be a viable option for replacing missing teeth. A periodontist may recommend alternative treatment options if the condition is advanced, but can also take various measures to ensure a person with periodontitis can have implants. For instance, a person who has experienced extensive bone loss may need to undergo bone grafting in order to provide a stable foundation for the implant. Additionally, the periodontist may recommend medications to reduce inflammation and improve healing. With careful planning and management, dental implants can be a successful treatment option for those with periodontitis.
