Sinuses are air gaps that are placed between the facial bones of your body. Sinus cavities are the main task of reducing the weight of skull bones. On the other hand, they have the task of providing resonance of sound waves and partially clearing the breathing air. These cavities can expand in volume by the effect of air pressure, especially after tooth loss.After the extraction of our teeth underneath our sinuses, the base of the sinus gradually dangles towards the empty space over time and reduces the volume of bone in this region.

Dental implants are substitute tooth roots which are placed in the jaw bone. In order for an implant to be successful, the patient must have sufficient bone tissue to support the implant. If there is not enough bone tissue in the jaw bone, the bone will not be able to support the implant.

The wisdom teeth grow at the back of your gums and are the last teeth to come through. Most people have four wisdom teeth – one in each corner.

Exposed tooth roots are the result of gum recession. Perhaps you wish to enhance your smile by covering one or more of these roots that make your teeth appear too long. Or, maybe you’re not bothered by the appearance of these areas, but you cringe because the exposed roots are sensitive to hot or cold foods and liquids.
