Q) What are the advantages of a pain management anesthesia system?

Some people are more conscious about the pain of anesthesia injection than the dental treatment. Unlike the traditional dental anaesthesia shots, the pain management anesthesia system uses a digital anesthetic to inject at a constant time and sets the speed by the machine, where it leads to reducing discomfort and minimising pain.

Q) What are the symptoms of tooth decay and neglect of tooth loss?

When cavities are left unattended, the decay may become severe and it can develop into serious diseases. In addition, when teeth are lost caused by periodontal disease or by accidents, this needs to be treated immediately otherwise the adjacent teeth may collapse to the side where teeth are lost and it can cause damage to the overall dental structure.

Q) What is the specific cause of ‘dental phobia’ ?

Mostly, people who have dental phobia feel uncomfortable with the sound of dental machines, distinctive smell and unfamiliar drugs that are used during the treatment. Also pain caused by the injection before the treatment and sometimes the pain caused during the dental treatment would make patients refuse to visit dentists.

Q) process of dental check-up before the proper treatment.

Evaluating the overall oral condition of the patient can be done by visual inspection and panorama x-ray. Primarily the condition of the patients’ teeth, gingiva and alveolar bone are evaluated and X-ray examination may be necessary for more detail. Moreover, CT(computed tomography) is mandatory for implant surgery for three dimensional examination.

Q) What are the advantages of a pain management anesthesia system?

Unlike the traditional dental anaesthesia shots, the pain management anesthesia system uses a digital anesthetic to inject at a constant time and sets the speed by the machine, where it leads to reducing discomfort and minimising pain.

Patients now have no need to suffer from pain by the anesthetic injection and I hope people who are in urgent need of dental treatment will overcome the dental phobia and be well treated as soon as possible.

Q) What are the methods for implant surgery for patients with dental phobia?

If the patient is suffering too much from the fear of treatment, we recommend sleep anesthesia.

Sleep anesthesia can also be used during dental implant sugery.

Unlike the general anesthesia, it induces a shallow state of sleep called conscious sedation, allowing the patient to breathe on his own and able to respond to physical stimuli and talk.

Q) Is there anything that should be considered for sleep anaesthesia implant surgery?

Medications that are used primarily for this type of implant surgery may have certain side effects but before the procedure the patient must have consultation with medical staff therefore considering problems are unlikely to happen.

Patients should ensure that there is monitoring equipment available to check the patients’ blood pressure, pulse, oxygen saturation and breathing rate.

Q) Is there another way for patients with dental phobia other than sleep anesthesia surgery?

Navigation implant surgery can be an alternative for patients with dental phobia.

Navigation implant surgery is preferred these days as patients have less pain after surgery and less swelling due to the shorter period of surgery time than the general implant surgery. This is possible due to the use of a particular machine for gingiva punch(?) to minimise the incision in the gum.

Q) How to keep our teeth healthy for life long?

It is important to visit the dentist regularly for a general check-up.

Dental x-ray as well as a visual examination is necessary to check the condition of the teeth and alveolar bone.

The way of brushing your teeth in you daily life is very important. It is necessary to brush all the sides of your teeth for about 2 to 3 minutes.

In addition, using dental floss or interdental brush(proxabrush) also keeps your teeth healthy and clean. These instruments help you to clean the areas where the normal toothbrush does not reach.
