Associated Oral and Implant Surgeons Offers Soothing Sedation Dentistry in Bristol, TN

Most patients who come in for oral surgery are anxious about their procedure, and one way we can help them is through IV sedation.

BRISTOL, Tenn. (PRWEB)
March 23, 2020

The team of oral surgeons at Associated Oral and Implant Surgeons (AOIS) offers patients soothing sedation dentistry in Bristol, TN and the surrounding tri-city areas. Those who need to undergo oral surgery can trust these experts to provide them with calming sedation that will relieve discomfort during treatment. Sedation dentistry can be used for a variety of oral surgery procedures, and AOIS offers varying sedation options to best meet patients’ needs.

“Most patients who come in for oral surgery are anxious about their procedure, and one way we can help them is through IV sedation,” says Dr. Carl Eilers. “This is essentially a technique where we administer medications that can help relax the patient and make the procedure much more comfortable.”

Sedation dentistry is commonly used to help patients relax and block sensations of discomfort during dental procedures. For an oral surgery practice, sedation is used frequently as the procedures can be more invasive in nature. Because of this, the oral surgeons at AOIS are highly skilled in administering sedation, and they offer advanced sedation, such as IV sedation and general anesthesia, which provides a much deeper level of relaxation. The surgeons are uniquely qualified to offer this treatment in-office due to their years of educational training and experience.

Patients can choose sedation for any of their oral surgery needs. Some of the common procedures that AOIS offers with sedation include dental implants, jaw surgery, wisdom teeth removal, facial trauma, emergency dental care and more. For patients seeking to replace missing teeth with dental implants, sedation can help make the process much simpler. With sedation, patients often do not even feel the surgery happening, or only notice a slight pressure at the surgery site. In many cases, sedation can even help the doctors perform multiple treatments in one appointment since patients are more relaxed and can handle additional time in the dental chair.

Patients in need of oral surgery are invited to experience the soothing effects of sedation dentistry at any of the AOIS offices, located in Bristol, Johnson City and Kingsport, TN. Appointments can be made online by visiting http://www.aomstri.com or by calling 423-915-1072 for the Johnson City office, 423-732-7575 for Kingsport, or 423-844-6200 for the Bristol location.

Dentist, Dr. Jacqueline Subka, Spreads Gum Disease Awareness in Calabasas, CA

When someone has periodontal problems, we treat it with the laser to minimize pockets and help patients maintain their oral health and teeth for the rest of their lives.

CALABASAS, Calif. (PRWEB)
March 23, 2020

In honor of Gum Disease Awareness Month, dentist Dr. Jacqueline Subka spreads awareness of gum disease in Calabasas, CA. Gum disease is a common oral condition that affects over half the population to some degree, targeting the gum tissues and bone. Dr. Subka offers effective and timely treatment for gum disease with minimally invasive laser dentistry and scaling and root planing.

“Patients who have gum disease not only have loss of gums, or gum recession, but they also have loss of the supporting bone structure of teeth,” says Dr. Subka. “If we don’t treat that, eventually you’ll lose your teeth. They will fall out. When someone has periodontal problems, we treat it with the laser to minimize pockets and help patients maintain their oral health and teeth for the rest of their lives.”

Gum disease is a progressive condition that affects the hard and soft tissues of the mouth, namely the gums, teeth and jawbone. When left untreated, it can cause gum recession, loose teeth, tooth loss and even a spreading of the disease to other parts of the body. The first stage of gum disease, gingivitis, can be treated by a dentist if caught early. However, if left untreated, gum disease will advance to periodontitis and advanced periodontitis, which cannot be cured, only maintained with routine periodontal maintenance visits. Common symptoms of gum disease include:

• Bleeding gums
• Tooth sensitivity
• Bad breath
• Loose teeth
• Gum recession

Patients who are experiencing any of the above symptoms can receive effective treatment for gum disease from Dr. Subka. Utilizing advanced technology, Dr. Subka can eradicate bacteria from the gum tissue and surrounding teeth to create a healthy environment again. With minimally invasive laser dentistry, gum disease and bacteria can be removed without harming healthy tissue. Laser dentistry is also beneficial because patients find it to be virtually painless and it causes minimal bleeding during treatment. Laser gum disease treatment is quick too, allowing multiple areas of the mouth to be treated in just one appointment.

After gum disease is cleansed from the mouth, many patients will require routine periodontal maintenance visits to ensure it does not return. These appointments involve scaling and root planing of the teeth to remove bacteria, plaque and tartar build up before it develops into gum disease again. Without routine visits every three months, patients run the risk of developing gum disease again.

Those seeking a dentist who can provide gentle treatment for gum disease in Calabasas, CA are invited to schedule a consultation with Dr. Subka at her Thousand Oaks, CA office. Appointments can be made by visiting http://www.subkadds.com or calling 805-373-1919.

We care about the health of the people in the businesses we serve, and we’re driven to support the health of their businesses as well.

LA JOLLA, Calif. (PRWEB)
March 23, 2020

Headquartered in La Jolla, California, The Leadership Edge, a life sciences organizational development company, just announced its plan to immediately transition one of its signature programs, From the Laboratory to Leadership, to online delivery in response to the Coronavirus. The program will be offered exclusively online as long as social distancing and working remotely is in place. During this time, the team is moving the popular program from a brick and mortar, group learning environment to a live webinar-based program while maintaining its relevant content, dynamic exercises and relationship building components.

From the Laboratory to Leadership is well known for its highly engaging and interactive style threaded with exercises that anchor the learning and enable graduates to apply skills assimilated well into the future. The new technology platform supports a dynamic and interactive experience and will feature a live presenter much like current face-to-face workshops. Participants can interact as a group and use virtual break out rooms for smaller group discussions.

“While the Strategic Plan we finalized in the fall includes expansion to include online learning and development as one modality in 2020, we immediately accelerated the plan to extend our programs to an online platform so we could help address concerns over the spread of COVID-19” said Gaylene Xanthopoulos, founder and president of The Leadership Edge. “At a time when physical separation is necessary and people are working from home, it can feel very isolating. Virtual learning can help maintain connections with colleagues, bridge the gap of isolation and support a healthy company culture. At the same time, our online programs support organizational needs for professional development and maximizing time away from the office. We care about the health of the people in the businesses we serve, and we’re driven to support the health of their businesses as well.”

The first online From the Laboratory to Leadership is scheduled to take place on March 23, 2020, in San Diego, followed by another program in San Francisco on March 26, 2020, and the team is rapidly working to transition all of their other programs to include an online format. The team moved quickly to speed implementation in a two week period with a focus on doing what they teach. Stay calm, develop a plan and get ahead of the challenge. Live programs will resume, alongside online options, once Coronavirus concerns are quelled.

To date the change in format has been met with appreciation and a 100% adoption rate from those enrolled, with no participants opting out of the program.

Dr. Jin Kim Treats Gum Recession in West Covina, CA with the Pinhole® Surgical Technique

What makes this procedure stand out is the fact that it uses no scalpels or sutures, causes minimal bleeding and discomfort and can be performed quickly.

WEST COVINA, Calif. (PRWEB)
March 23, 2020

Dual board-certified periodontist, Dr. Jin Kim, provides minimally invasive gum recession treatment to West Covina, CA and surrounding areas. Through an innovative procedure called the Pinhole® Surgical Technique, Dr. Kim is able to gently reposition the soft tissues affected by gum recession into proper position without having to use scalpels or sutures. Gum recession is a common occurrence and can be caused by numerous factors including age, tobacco use and gum disease.

The Pinhole Surgical Technique (PST™) is a revolutionary treatment method for those suffering from gum recession. What makes this procedure stand out is the fact that it uses no scalpels or sutures, causes minimal bleeding and discomfort and can be performed quickly. The process involves simply making a small hole in the gum tissue just above the site of recession and, with the use of ultra-fine tools, gently repositioning the gum tissue back down over the exposed tooth roots. The tissue is then held in place with collagen strips and patients see virtually instantaneous results without the discomfort of traditional gum recession therapy. Dr. Kim is certified and trained to offer this modern treatment solution, and provides it at both of his offices, with locations in Diamond Bar and West Garden Grove, CA.

Gum recession is a common condition that occurs when the gum tissue surrounding teeth begins to pull away from its natural, healthy position. This can be caused by genetics and age, but outside influences like tobacco use, gum disease or trauma can also make the gums recede. When the gum tissue pulls away from the teeth, it exposes the sensitive tooth roots to damage and decay. Patients often notice dark triangles between teeth, discoloration or tooth sensitivity as this occurs. Without treatment, teeth can become severely damaged and may eventually require significant dental work or extraction. A leading cause of gum recession is gum disease. When bacteria infects the gum tissue, the tissue begins to pull away from the teeth. Patients seeking treatment for gum recession often need to have gum disease concerns treated first to establish a healthy foundation.

Dr. Kim specializes in modern approaches to dentistry, including treatment of gum recession in a minimally invasive and gentle way. The PST treatment is known for being a gentle alternative to traditional gum grafting and for treatment of gum disease, Dr. Kim offers laser dentistry. With laser dentistry, gum disease can be eradicated without the use of scalpels or sutures. Those patients who experience dental anxiety or fear can receive sedation dentistry, including oral sedation and general anesthesia, to ease worry and discomfort during care. For most gum recession cases, sedation is not needed, but is an option for those with dental phobias.

Patients interested in receiving treatment for gum recession in West Covina, CA or surrounding areas are encouraged to contact Dr. Kim. Consultations can be made by visiting the website at http://www.drjinkim.com or calling 909-860-9222 for the Diamond Bar location or 714-898-8757 for the West Garden Grove location.

SAN FRANCISCO (PRWEB)
