Wellington Dentist Dr. Steven Miller Provides Dental Implants for Denture Patients Seeking Permanent, Aesthetic Alternative

Wellington, FL -- (ReleaseWire) -- 05/21/2015 -- Dr. Steven Miller is now offering Wellington, FL adult dental patients of all ages the latest advancement in dental technology to help them achieve permanent, confident smiles with dental implants and hybrid dental implants in place of removable dentures. Contrary to the common notion that removable dentures are only needed by mature adults in their senior years, an approximate 3% of Americans ages 18 to 34 wear some form of full or partial removable denture to restore function and aesthetics to their smiles. And while removable dentures have been the conventional option for adult patients who are missing permanent teeth, they still lack in providing patients with function and aesthetics that mimic natural teeth.

With dental implants, however, Dr. Miller is able to offer patients a restorative solution to their missing permanent teeth that is nearly identical to their natural teeth. Dental implants are able to help restore a single missing tooth, multiple missing teeth, or entire top or bottom arches of missing teeth for adult patients. For those who previously relied on removable dentures, Dr. Miller is able to provide them with a hybrid denture that snaps into place permanently using dental implants, eliminating the need for bonding strips.

Dental implants are the closest treatment to duplicating natural teeth available in the dental industry today. The dental implant itself is a small metal screw that is surgically inserted into the jawbone of the patient in the void of the missing tooth. The dental implant is typically constructed from titanium which is a hypoallergenic material that will naturally fuse to jaw bone, mimicking the structure of the natural tooth root. Once the dental implant has healed, an artificial crown can be attached to it to replace a single missing tooth, or implants can be used to secure partial dentures or entire top and bottom arches.

The complete dental implant, including the screw and the attached artificial crown, is designed to look identical to a natural tooth and is just as strong as a natural tooth as well. When placed properly and cared for properly, dental implants are designed to last the lifetime of the patient.

In addition to restoring full function and aesthetics to the patient's smile, dental implants also help preserve the jawbone of the patient in the absence of natural teeth. Typically permanent tooth loss causes the jawbone to resorb, similar to a muscle that atrophies when not in use. But with dental implants, the jawbone stays healthy and active, preserving the health of teeth surrounding it as well.

About Dr. Steven Miller
Dr. Miller participates in an ongoing dental implant study club to stay up to date with the latest tools, techniques, and procedures available, to help patients who currently rely on removable dentures to get the permanent, confident smile they desire. Graduated from New York University College Of Dentistry, Dr. Miller achieved the rank of Major in the United States Army and has been a member of countless prestigious associations, including The American Dental Association, American Academy of Dental Sleep Medicine and served as President of The Central Palm Beach Dental Association.

Dr. Steven M. Miller, DDS, discusses the underlying health risks for chronic snorers and how some simple techniques can help avoid more serious long-term problems

Wellington, FL -- (ReleaseWire) -- 07/31/2014 -- Wellington, Florida dentist Dr. Steven M. Miller has assembled a database of health problems, risks and treatments that many who regularly snore may suffer from without knowing. Snoring is so common that most consider it an annoyance at worst. In truth, snoring may indicate something occurring in the body that could be serious. Healthy sleep should be silent. Snoring is not a natural function of the body and is indicative of underlying conditions. Unless one is suffering from a cold or allergic reaction which causes congestion, breathing during sleep should be effortless and quiet, just as during the waking hours.

Unfortunately, many American adults (1 in 3) snore regularly, almost every night, and even more (1 in 2) experience occasional snoring. This means that roughly 80 million people snore in the US. In addition to these occurrences in adults, children also snore, with studies showing a rate of almost 1 in 5 children snoring occasionally.

The sound of snoring is the result of a vibration caused by an obstruction of the airway. Snoring is a sign that something's wrong. Snoring occurs when the uvula, the back of the tongue or the softer tissues of the throat flap as air passes over them. This obstruction in poorly aligned structures causes decreased air flow to the lungs, which in turn results in a lack of necessary oxygen to the brain. At the root of all snoring is airway blockage. Snoring can be a sign of a much more serious condition called Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA).

OSA is responsible for an increase in risk for the development of diabetes, hypertension, heart failure, and stroke. Many couples with one partner who has sleep apnea report that their partner may stop breathing for more than 10 seconds, a dangerous occurrence that essentially suffocates the brain and body when oxygen is completely cut off. OSA can be identified by an especially loud snoring sound that is periodically interrupted by brief periods of silence. This lack of oxygen and increase in carbon dioxide will cause a partial, traumatic awakening which sounds like a gasping or choking. This pattern often cycles throughout the night, leading to daytime sleepiness and stress.

Medical treatment methods are often most effective when combined with lifestyle adjustments that encourage proper, peaceful, re-energizing sleep. Sleep apnea is a treatable menace for many who are suffering unknown traumas and elevated health risks in addition to the strain that irritating, noisy and even frightening snoring can have on personal relationships between partners.

One common symptom of sleep apnea is erectile dysfunction and decreased libido. Sleep apnea management is possible after an initial consultation and treatment may involve a mouthpiece which realigns the jaws, tongue and soft tissue to the application of a mask which maintains the flow of oxygen to the brain and lungs.
