Dental Implants

Hello Comstock Park visitors; welcome to Stewart and Hull Aesthetic and General Dentistry. Let’s talk about a tooth replacement option common in Belmont, Comstock Park, Grand Rapids, Sparte, Walker and Rockford, MI: dental implants. Most Rockford, MI people with missing teeth are great candidates for dental implants.

A dental implant looks just like the beautiful tooth restoration on a high-quality dental bridge, but the important part is what you don’t see.

A dental implant stands alone and is not attached to the adjacent teeth like traditional dental bridges. In a way, a dental implant is a more conservative tooth replacement because it leaves the adjacent teeth intact. The bone and gum tissue mesh permanently with the titanium post that serves as the replacement tooth root.

Dental implants do not have the same decay risk as the teeth that anchor dental bridges. Of course patients with dental implants need to brush and floss, but cleaning a dental implant is usually no more difficult than cleaning a normal tooth.

With proper care, a dental implant can last a lifetime for smile-smart Rockford, MI dental patients.

At Stewart and Hull Aesthetic and General Dentistry, dental implants can replace one or more teeth providing stability, beauty, and natural function. In addition, they can also serve as anchors for full or partial dentures. No more embarrassing slipping!

If you want more specifics about dental implants, I invite you to call Stewart and Hull Aesthetic and General Dentistry at 616-784-2377. We are Dr. Stewart and Dr. Hull. Call today to schedule a dental implant consultation. A dazzling smile can be yours with dental implants.

Tooth Restoration: Dental Implants And Dental Bridges

smiling woman

When my Comstock Park patients ask me about Comstock Park tooth restoration, I usually tell them about fixed (or ‘traditional’) dental bridges or tooth implants. A dental bridge is an artificial tooth which replaces a missing tooth. The false tooth (called a ‘pontic’) is fused to porcelain crowns on either side of the missing tooth.

Tooth replacement has been a highly requested procedure at my Comstock Park dental practice. Patients from the Belmont, Comstock Park, Grand Rapids, Walker, Sparta and Rockford, MI areas have expressed concern about tooth replacement for many years. Most of my questions have to do with the strength of the tooth replacement and durability.

Most popular are dental implants. A dental implant consists of a titanium post surgically inserted into the jaw bone to replace the root of the missing tooth. The post integrates with the bone to provide a stable foundation for the replacement tooth.

After it has bonded with the bone (it usually takes three to six months), a smaller post is attached. This post extends above the gum line. The artificial tooth (crown) is then attached. The entire process takes several months, but consistently yields terrific results for our patients.

Both Michigan smile restoration options preserve or restore facial contour and allow you to talk and eat normally. Tooth replacements prevent adjoining teeth from gradually shifting and can help correct bite problems, also.

Tooth implants and dental bridges can replace one or more missing teeth. Many Rockford, MI area dental patients have been treated successfully with these tooth restoration alternatives.

Call Stewart and Hull Aesthetic and General Dentistry and ask for Dr. Stewart and Dr. Hull to schedule an evaluation for Michigan tooth restoration. You can schedule your tooth restoration by calling us at 616-784-2377.

How Dental Implants Are Changing Dentures In Comstock Park

If you are one of the many Comstock Park denture wearers, you know that they are not the ideal solution for missing teeth.

The problems with dentures include slipping, gum irritation, trouble eating and talking, bone loss, and inability to taste food due to a covered palate. Clearly, dentures do not feel and function like natural teeth.

Good oral hygiene and regular dental checkups can help you avoid the need for dentures later in your life, but other factors can make dental replacements an inevitability.

The good news? Modern dental implant technology offers a better tooth restoration solution. If you currently wear traditional dentures and are not happy with them, implant anchored dentures may dramatically change your life. Your chewing ability will drastically improve.

Before you consider having another denture reline, ask your Comstock Park dentist about the possibility of dental implants.

Attention Comstock Park denture wearers: there is life after dentures with tooth implants!

Come see us at Stewart and Hull Aesthetic and General Dentistry at 769 York Creek Dr NW in Comstock Park, 49321 for more information about dental implants.

Rockford MI Dental Patients, Take Care Of Your Toothbrush!

The common household toothbrush. Every home has at least one, and hopefully all Rockford, Belmont, Comstock Park, Grand Rapids, Sparta and Walker residents are brushing their teeth after each meal. While cosmetic dentistry and a complete smile makeovers seem to be all the rage these days, daily brushing is still the most important thing you can do for your oral health. It has been said that each toothbrush can contain millions of bacteria. But don’t worry, those bacteria come from our mouths, which harbor equal amounts of bacteria. For a person with a healthy immune system, these bacteria pose no threat.

However, a few common sense tips might keep any unnecessary germs from affecting the toothbrushes of Grand Rapids area dental patients.

First, be sure to store your toothbrush as far away from the toilet as possible, and close the toilet lid before flushing. Each flush of the toilet releases a spray of bacteria into the air, so it’s best to just eliminate the spray. Next, since bacteria like a moist environment, store your toothbrush upright and without a travel case so that it can dry completely between uses. The American Dental Association recommends replacing your toothbrush every three to four months. Brushing and flossing are the key to good oral health, and doing both each day will keep Rockford MI dental patients’ risk for gum disease, cavities, and bad breath low.

Keep your smile bright by visiting Stewart & Hull Aesthetic & General Dentistry regularly and practicing proper oral hygiene.

Our office has been serving the Belmont, Comstock Park, Grand Rapids, Sparta, Walker and Rockford areas since 1974. We can answer any questions you have about cosmetic dentistry procedures such as tooth whitening, porcelain veneers, dental implants, and clear braces. Call to schedule an appointment today!

Are Dental Implants Worth It For Grand Rapids?

A dental implant is a permanent tooth replacement that looks, feels and works like a natural tooth.

The actual dental implant material is usually titanium. A post is surgically inserted into the jaw bone to replace the root of the missing tooth. The post integrates with the bone to provide a stable foundation. The root replacement device can help prevent future jaw bone deterioration that can occur after a tooth has been lost. When the implant has integrated securely with the bone (it can take three to six months), a smaller post is attached. This post extends above the gum line. The artificial tooth (crown) is then attached.

Dental implants are extremely versatile and can be used in a variety of configurations. One dental implant can replace one missing tooth. A series of implants can replace more than one tooth or anchor a dental bridge. Implants can also act as a sturdy base for partial or full dentures.

We encourage our Comstock Park, Grand Rapids, Belmont, Walker and Rockford MI. patients to call 616-827-7019 to schedule a visit to discuss your dental goals and see if you would be a good candidate for dental implants. If you are missing one or more teeth, you owe it to yourself to get a free consultation with Dr. Bruce Stewart and Dr. Eric Hull.
