Dental Implants
We meet with a number of patients who, for one reason or another, have either lost some teeth or anticipate having some of their teeth extracted. Following the loss of any tooth, it is imperative to replace it, which can help safeguard against further deterioration of the jaw bone and surrounding tissue. For most patients, dental implants are the best option for full restoration, offering a solution that is more comfortable, convenient, and permanent than traditional dentures. Make sure to ask us about conventional implants, available to patients in Daphne, AL.
Wisdom Teeth Removal
The wisdom teeth, or back molars, usually grow in during the late teen years or sometimes in the early 20s. Wisdom teeth really do not serve a purpose and can actually cause serious complications, including infection, pain, and crowding of surrounding teeth. Your regular dentist may recommend having your wisdom teeth removed, something Dr. Minto is happy to assist with. Contact us to get more information about our approach to wisdom teeth removal or to schedule a consultation.
Bone Grafting
Bone grafting is a procedure that enables the patient to regrow bone tissue, particularly on the jaw or near the teeth. Bone grafting can help patients who have a sunken facial appearance and may also be necessary before dental implants can be placed. Dr. Minto can perform different kinds of bone graft procedures for patients in Daphne, AL and in surrounding Baldwin County.
