Dr. Giri Palani, Dental Implant Expert
|
 Despite great improvements in dental care, millions of American still suffer from tooth loss. Dr. Giri Palani, DDS, FICOI's biocompatible dentistry takes into account the effect of dental treatment and materials on the overall health of the individual, honoring the connection between the mouth and body. His environmentally friendly office is a forerunner in cosmetic and implant dentistry. Graduating from Marquette University School of Dentistry and going on to complete the rigorous Hospital of Dentistry Program at Cedars Sinai Hospital in Los Angeles, California, led to Dr. Palani's advanced training and expertise in rehabilitating healthy and beautiful smiles .
Tooth loss can occur for a variety of reasons (tooth decay, gingivitis, or injury). Bridges and dentures use to be the only options available, but today there are dental implants. Dental implants are replaced tooth roots. Implants provide a strong foundation for permanent or removable teeth that are made to match your natural teeth. Dr. Palani offers cutting edge techniques and technology in implant dentistry that will last a life time.
The advantages of dental implants are numerous:
| • |
Improved Appearance:Implants look and feel like your own teeth. They are designed to fuse with the bone so that they become permanent. |
| • |
Improved Speech: Implants allow you to speak without the worry that teeth might slip or cause you to mumble or slur words. |
| • |
Improved Comfort: Implants become permanent and eliminate the discomfort of removal |
| • |
Easier Eating: Sliding dentures can make chewing difficult. Using the latest "All On Four" procedure, Dr. Palani can implant upper and lower strategically placed posts to secure already existing dentures. This new procedure gives denture wearers an alternative to denture adhesives. Implants allow you to eat with confidence and without discomfort. |
| • |
Improved Self-Esteem: Dental implants give you back your smile! |
| • |
Improved Oral Health: This procedure does not require reducing other teeth as a bridge requires, leaving more of your own teeth in tact. It also allows for easier more natural cleaning in between teeth. |
| • |
Durability: They are very durable and with proper care will last a lifetime. Dr. Palani specifically works with vendors such as Nobel Biocare (world leader in innovative and restorative dental solutions) to insure that your restored smile lasts a lifetime. |
| • |
Convenience: There is no need to remove the implants to clean or use special adhesives to make sure they remain in place. |
Once a plan is in place, a tooth root implant ( a small post made from titanium) is placed in the bone socket of the missing tooth. As the jawbone heals, it grows around the implanted metal post, securing it to the jaw. Healing takes from six to twelve weeks. Once the tooth root implant has bonded, a small connector post is attached to hold the new tooth and a replacement tooth called a crown is then attached. The crown will match the other teeth in your mouth. The procedure is done under local anesthesia and produces little discomfort. Dr. Palani and his staff will be with you throughout this entire process.
Once the decision to pursue dental implantology has been made, Dr. Palani and his highly trained staff will work with you to customize a treatment program that fits each individual. Committed to the latest advancements in cosmetic dentistry, Dr. Palani's office uses digital x-rays, lasers for the shaping of gum tissues, and the most respected vendors in the business. Commitment to quality and on going advances in the field of restorative dentistry, translate into quicker recovery times, less pain, and confidence that your new smile will be with you forever.
Dr. Palani is a certified Fellow In the International Congress of Oral Implantologists. While serving as Chief Resident at the Advanced Education General Dentistry Program at UCLA, Dr. Palani focused his time on Implant and Cosmetic Dentistry, understanding the importance of being with his patient for the entire procedure. He is also trained in bone grafting and sinus lift procedures. Dr. Palani is one of the few dentists who offer complete treatment from start to finish.
