Dental implant surgeries require a great deal of planning. Before the surgery is completed, you will receive some fairly in depth information about the surgery itself and also about what you can expect after the procedure is over. During this time, you will learn that there are several common issues that you may need to deal with after your surgery. Nausea is one of them. Unfortunately, vomiting can cause burning sensations in the mouth and it can lead to infections and increased pain.

- If your child's orthodontist has informed you that your child needs braces, then the first step in the process is the placement of molar bands on the back teeth. These metal attachments are cemented around the molars, and they serve as anchors to help keep arch wires in place. Molar bands cannot be simply slipped over the molars though. Since the back teeth sit extremely close together, the pediatric orthodontist will need to place separators in between the molars first.
