1. Men’s Health Matters!

   Jun 20 2022

   June is Men’s Health Awareness Month and Frankel Dentistry is spreading awareness and encouraging healthy habits. Did you know over 350,000 men die every year from heart disease? And only 3 out 5 have regular physicals. Believe it or not, your oral health is connected to your health! This is why we always say a Healthy Mouth Promotes a Healthy Body! Oral health is often overlooked but did you know there are currently 3.6 billion individuals struggling with oral diseases? 

   

   Your mouth is typically a good indicator of your overall well-being. Individuals with periodontal disease have the same risk factors as those with heart disease. Diseases such as diabetes, stroke, heart disease, and Alzthemiers can all be connected to oral health. Frankel Dentistry wants to see you live a healthy, happy life with smiles to share for years to come. How can you make sure you’re practicing a healthy lifestyle?

   Here are some heart healthy habits to help encourage a healthy lifestyle!

   1. A healthy diet.

   Limit your fat and sodium consumption! Highly fat foods are known to increase your risk of heart disease or stroke. This is because fatty foods increase cholesterol which lead to high blood pressure, build up in the blood, clogged arteries, and more. 

   A heart healthy diet includes whole grains, fruits and vegetables, lean proteins, and limit processed foods. 

   2. Exercise!

   30 minutes a few days a week is all you need! Cardio exercises such as walking, running, cycling, or exercise classes all help strengthen your heart. Find a form of exercise you love and will look forward to! 

   3. DENTAL CARE

   As you know a healthy mouth promotes a healthy body! Studies have shown bacteria in the mouth creates plaque which can move into the bloodstream and increase your risk for diabetes, stroke, and more. Remember to brush twice a day for at least two minutes, floss regularly, and schedule your recare appointments! 

   4. Quality rest.

   Quality sleep is essential to your health and well-being. Sleep allows your heart to rest as well as improve blood pressure and heart rate. We recommend a 7-8 hours of quality rest a night.

   

2. Implant Dentures Change Lives

   Apr 01 2022

   Did you know 69% of American adults are missing at least one tooth? Losing an adult tooth can be devastating, not only does it affect your mental health but your physical health as well. Missing teeth can lead to gum disease, bone loss, and more missing teeth. 

   

   Looking for a solution?

   Dental implants and implant supported dentures are the best and most permanent way to replace missing teeth. Frankel Dentistry offers partial and full dentures, placed with a titanium root which can be just as strong as your original teeth. This helps prevent bone loss and build confidence in your smile.

   The beauty of implant supported dentures at Frankel Dentistry, is the procedure is done in house. We take a 3D scan that allows us to place the implant virtually, in the perfect spot. Once the dental image of the implant is created we can create a guide. The guide allows the implant supported dentures to be quickly and precisely placed.

   Within three to four months, the implant or implants will fuse to the bone, and the implant crown, tooth, or dentures can be placed.

   Frankel Dentistry specializes in general, cosmetic, and restorative dentistry. While Cosmetic Dentistry is one of Dr. Frankel’s passions he also highlights the importance of Restorative Dentistry and the impact it makes on thousands of people each year. Same Day Fixed Implant Dentures fall into this category and at Frankel Dentistry we have changed the lives with this procedure.

   Partial edentulism affects a large majority of adults in America. Over 33 million individuals have dentures. Dentures replace missing teeth with prosthetics and restore the size and shape of the original smile. An Implant Denture is a set of prosthetics supported by a titanium post placed in the patient’s mouth. Implant dentures offer convenience, natural function, natural looking smile, and longevity. Fixed implants preserve the bone and maintain facial features, patients are able to talk, chew, and smile just as before with their natural teeth. Only your dental professional will be able to detect your dentures. If you maintain proper care and stay up to date with you recare appointments your implant dentures can last a lifetime.

4. Lost Teeth Found

   Dental Implants

   Losing an adult tooth due to decay, gum disease, or injury can be upsetting. The thought of wearing a partial denture is an unwelcome life-style change.

   

   A permanent dental bridge compromises the health of the adjacent teeth.

   

   Fortunately,  the art and science of dentistry has come to the rescue. 

   

   Dental implants are as close as it gets to natural teeth. A titanium root is fused to the bone of your jaw. Once fixed in place an attachment is placed. A crown looking just like your original tooth ( and sometimes better) is cemented to the attachment.

   

   It is basically back to normal. You can brush, floss and smile.

   If you are interested in replacing missing teeth with dental implants call Frankel Dentistry for a complimentary consultation. Things that may be discussed are:

   • Replacing missing teeth to minimize bone loss and shifting teeth.
   • Evaluating your dental health with a comprehensive oral exam and x-rays
   • Taking a multidimensional scan of your teeth to determine if an implant is a possibility.
   • Using a scan to map out the ideal location for a dental implant.
   • Creating a guide to position the implant.
   • Placing the Implant.
   •  Attaching an abutment to hold the new crown.
   • Seating the dental crown.

   Patients may receive full dentures, partial dentures or implant dentures. Full models replace all of the teeth on your upper and lower arch.  On the other hand, partial dentures work in tandem with your remaining teeth to fill in the gaps in your mouth. Finally, implant-supported dentures use titanium posts that are placed in your mouth. these lock denture into place, giving you a permanent and secure solution.

   Dentures are easy to care for – they can be removed for cleaning and brushing. It’s best to have your dentures checked at your annual exams as most dentures last five to ten years.
