Oral Surgery Madison Family Dental Associates specializes in a variety of surgical procedures, dental implants, and sleep apnea treatments.Sleep ApneaSleep apnea is characterized by the repeated cessation of breathing during sleep. According to the National Sleep Foundation, sleep apnea affects more than 18 million Americans. If you think you may have sleep apnea, you should seek medical attention as soon as possible, due to the serious nature of the disorder. At Madison Family Dental Associates, we offer oral appliances to alleviate the symptoms of sleep apnea. An oral appliance can provide you with safer and more restful sleep! Learn more about treating sleep apnea. Sinus LiftTooth loss often leads to bone loss in the jaw. A dental implant needs a solid foundation of bone to support it, and bone loss is a common issue when teeth have been missing for a significant period of time. When bone loss occurs in the upper premolar or molar areas the sinus can fill in the gap left by the receding bone. No harm is caused by the sinus filling in the gap left by receding bone, but if dental implants are desired a sinus lift may be necessary. Learn more about the sinus lift procedure. Bone GraftingSuccessful implant treatment requires a sufficient amount of bone in the jaw. We may recommend a bone graft if your bone is too thin or too soft to support an implant. A graft can help restore deteriorated bone, and give you a second chance at implant treatment! Learn more about bone grafting. Dental ImplantsA dental implant is a small titanium post that we surgically embed into the jawbone. The implant serves as the root component of a prosthetic tooth. Once the implant is in place, it will fuse to the bone during the process of osseointegration. Osseointegration allows the implant to support a restoration against the strongest forces of your bite. For this reason, dental implants are widely considered to be the next best thing to your natural teeth. Learn more about the benefits of dental implants.
