If the person is in stage 4 of CKD, he may be advised to reduce protein to 10% of calorie intake per day. The suggested intake of protein decreases, because more than 70% of kidney function has lost in stage 4 of Chronic Kidney Disease.
Dental Implant Restorations. Dental Implants are a new alternative in tooth replacement. The procedure consists of two stages: placement of a replacement tooth root at your dental specialist's office, followed by placement of a tooth replacement (crown) at our office.
In fact, a primary reason to consider dental implants to replace missing teeth is the maintenance of jawbone. Bone needs stimulation to stay healthy. Because dental implants fuse to the bone, they stabilize it and prevent further bone loss. Resorption is a normal and inevitable process in which bone is lost when it is no longer supporting or connected to teeth. Only dental implants can stop this process and preserve the bone.
