If you are undergoing implants or orthodontic treatment, make sure to consume nutrients that help increase the density of your jawbone.

 

Dr. Park Kyung-ah of Alps Dental Clinic stated, "In the case of implants, during the process where the implant bonds with the jawbone, some bone may be resorbed and lost." She also mentioned, "Even when orthodontic treatment involves moving teeth intentionally, the teeth gradually shift, which can cause inflammatory reactions in the gum and jawbone."

 

However, due to pain caused by dental appliances, eating only soft foods often leads to nutritional imbalance. At this time, if there is a deficiency of vitamin D, K, and calcium, the connection between the gum bone and the implant may not properly form after the implant procedure.

Orthodontic treatment involves using braces to move teeth and straighten the dental arch, which can weaken the teeth. Therefore, taking a comprehensive nutritional supplement from the time braces are attached until the end of treatment can help strengthen the teeth.

 

It is advisable to take effective vitamins and calcium that help increase the bone density of the gums before and after implant procedures. Calcium is the most important component that makes up bones. It is recommended to choose calcium citrate, which has a rapid absorption rate in the body. Vitamins D and K assist in the proper attachment of calcium to the bones during bone formation and help prevent calcification caused by excess calcium.

 

 

Director Park Kyung-ah said, "When performing long-term implant procedures, if oral hygiene is not well maintained, inflammation caused by tartar should also be watched out for." She added, "Thorough hygiene practices such as brushing are fundamental, and consuming calcium and magnesium, which help prevent periodontitis, is also effective."

My husband is undergoing implant treatment.

I was only thinking about bone grafting in my mind.

 

Since before, the table has been full of calcium.

Prepare some anchovy side dish.

 

It would be good to also take vitamin and calcium supplements.
