Tooth regeneration – Krakow
Dental regeneration is a treatment for patients who have undergone tooth extraction and are struggling with bone loss, also known as bone atrophy. This is a natural process in the human body. However, it can have serious consequences, such as malocclusion and resulting changes in facial features or difficulty chewing food. Regenerative treatments should also be performed on patients who have opted for implant-based tooth replacement but lack sufficient bone support for the procedure. Using this method, we can easily rebuild the atrophied bone tissue in the tooth, significantly improving the patient’s quality of life. To discuss your concerns with a dentist, please contact our clinic in Krakow.
What does tooth regeneration involve?
Tooth regeneration involves placing a replacement material in the area of the defect. The dental surgeon covers it with a special healing membrane and then sutures it into the gum. Within a few months of the procedure, the replacement material stimulates the patient’s natural bone to grow. This allows it to grow into the porous bone replacement structure. Simultaneously, the material and healing membrane undergo complete decomposition. In their place, full-value bone tissue appears, indistinguishable from the patient’s natural bone. The resulting base allows for seamless prosthetic and implant treatment, which was previously impossible.
Laser biostimulation
Laser biostimulation is a modern method available at our dental clinic. It involves irradiating a specific area with a weak laser beam with a wavelength between 630 and 1100 nm. The emitted light triggers or accelerates certain processes within cells: it stimulates mitochondria and ribosomes that synthesize proteins, increases serotonin levels, which constricts blood vessels, and increases the population of T lymphocytes, which are responsible for regenerating inflammatory tissue. The laser biostimulation treatment is non-invasive and painless. Both adults and children can choose it.
The laser is used to treat numerous dental conditions. It is ideal for treating caries, dental surgery, and root canal therapy. Additionally, laser biostimulation can significantly accelerate the healing process after tooth extraction and alleviate pain following dental procedures. Patients struggling with gum and periodontal disease, as well as hypersensitivity, should also benefit from laser therapy. To notice the positive effects of laser biostimulation, several series of treatments are necessary. Your doctor will provide you with detailed guidelines regarding the number of treatments needed during your first consultation.
