Nagpur: Akash (Name Changed), a professional software working in Pune, has difficulty chewing and compromising aesthetics over the past five years.
His 35-year-old dream to move to the United States (US) was held when he suffered from rare genetic disorders – teeth mobility because of the general chronic aggressive periodontitis.
This condition, also called Pyorrhea, leads to bacterial infections in gums and jawbones, resulting in loosening teeth.
Now, five years along the line, Akash uses a big smile and is ready to fly to the United States after full oral rehabilitation by oral surgeons and maxillofacial Dr.
Vipin Dehue.
“Covid-induced restrictions and patients tested positive a day before dental surgery in September last year again threatened to postpone treatment.
However, we take risks and move forward with plans to repair 17 implants on the lower jaw and upon – consisting of 28 zirconia teeth Who was crowned – and succeeded, “said Dr.
Dehane.
In the post-covid infection phase, the potential for delayed healing and chances of dry sockets in the increased oral cavity.
The use of several steroids also increases superinfection opportunities because of low immunity.
Dehue, who is the Director of the Apple Dental Clinic and facial surgery unit in Nagpur, said, “For the past five years, the software engineer was treated by his illness but did not get help.
He has a bridge set on maxillary and mandibular teeth but still cannot chew It is true because of mobility in the teeth.
“Finally, Techie decided to get artificial gear with dental implants.
Dehue prefers to do both, remove cellular teeth and improve implants in the same operation.
“This saves patients from fear of hospitalization in the middle of Covid, because he has tested positive,” he said.
The software engineer said, “I am a bit scared about the operation.
I am looking for some opinions.
The first Covid wave is ongoing.
Late September, I was infected and hospitalized for 15 days.
Dr.
Dehane asked me to wait for the effects of steroids and other medicines To subside.
All of this, I can’t chew.
In November the first week, he made the first implant.
“Next, other implants are also placed.
Akash said the healing was good, but he had to wait for six months after the implant was repaired to check his mouth again.
And now in the first week of October, he got a set of western teeth, who was given his son by Dr.
Dehue.
Akash added, “I was lucky.
It was a long-drawn procedure but I love to have my smile back.”
