It was thought previously that there was no help for patients who suffered with severe gum disease. Dentists were able to prevent further bone loss but would not be able to replace the bone already lost from attacking bacteria. Emdogain is a recently introduced product that fools the body into forming new bone and attachment fibres, helping to stabilise mobile teeth. Emdogain uses the same protein that is produced only during the time of tooth development, the protein has an important function in the creation of teeth and their support structures.

Here we see a recently completed full upper denture case, where Dr Hassan has placed 4 dental implants.  The implants are used to secure and stabilise  a much smaller denture which does not cover the palate.  This benefits the patient in the following ways:

1. Reduced denture size.
2. Improved speech.
3. Improved chewing capabilities.
4. By not cover up the palate the patient is able to taste more flavours from there food.
5. No risk of denture falling down, during normal function.
