Dental care is always evolving – what was commonplace a decade or two ago has often been replaced with new techniques designed to bring better results and greater patient comfort.

It’s why Amarjot Singh, owner and dentist at Gladwin Crossing Dental in Abbotsford, offers patients the latest in dental care, ranging from platelet rich plasma therapy to over-dentures and permanent dental implants.

What is Platelet Rich Plasma Therapy?

“Platelet rich plasma or PRP Therapy is a new treatment option that can result in faster healing and reduced pain during a number of dental surgeries,” Singh says.

“Essentially we take the patient’s blood, spin it, take out the growth cells and turn them into a customized growth ‘jelly.’ We then use that jelly during the procedure and the end result is less overall pain and greatly reduced recovery time.”

Gladwin Crossing Dental offers PRP Therapy as an option for a variety of procedures as a way to reduce patients’ pain and discomfort, and provide with the highest quality of dental care currently available. Currently Dr Singh uses PRP for wisdom teeth removal, Implant and gum surgeries.

Along with platelet rich plasma therapy, Gladwin Crossing Dental also offers traditional dentures, over-dentures and permanent dental implants as part of their ongoing commitment to offering patients the latest in high-end dental care.

Dentures, over-dentures and dental implants, what you need to know!

While dentures have been the most popular solution for those suffering tooth loss due to age, disease or injury, over-dentures and permanent dental implants have grown more popular due to their realistic appearance, greatly improved function and comfort over traditional dentures.

“Traditional dentures only offer patients a 10 per cent comparability to natural teeth. Over-dentures offer 60 per cent comparability and permanent dental implants offer the next best thing to your natural teeth,” Singh says. “Over-dentures and permanent implants also appear more natural, which can help with a patient’s self-esteem and confidence levels.”

What’s the difference between dentures and over-dentures?

While dentures are held in place by adhesive, natural suction or both, over-dentures are secured by clipping or screwing into a dental implant base attached to the jawbone.

“While over-dentures and permanent implants are more expensive then regular dentures they’re something every patient should have access to and be aware of,” Singh says. “The difference in quality of life alone makes them worthy of consideration and innovations like PRP Therapy make them notably less painful and the recovery time significantly shorter.”
