Slipping dentures are a dental patient’s worst nightmare. It’s hard to talk and eat – not to mention embarrassing! For years, dentures have been the “go to” solution for replacing missing teeth. However, since dentures are not anchored and sit on top of the jawbone and gums, the jaw bone actually shrinks and dissolves. Many people may be unaware this is happening.

Jaw bone loss causes dentures to slip when talking or eating, and affects the overall skeletal structure of the face. Jaw bone loss changes the profile, and can also result in thin lips, drooping muscles, and jowls. If that wasn’t bad enough, exposed nerves and irritation of the gum tissue can create constant pain and discomfort for denture patients.

Dental implants are an increasingly popular option for tooth replacement and eliminate the pain and discomfort of removable dentures. Dental implants are like natural teeth because they are anchored securely to your jawbone.

“It is as if dental implants “trick” the bone into thinking the tooth is still present,” says Dr. Mark Zajkowski of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery Associates in South Portland, Maine. “Dental implants have been proven not only to stop bone loss, but they can also help restore the health of the jaw. Patients are always happy to report that they feel more youthful after making the switch and no one knows they have a replacement tooth!”

Generally, if you are healthy enough for routine dental treatment, you are probably a candidate for dental implant treatment. If you have missing teeth, talk to your dentist about dental implants. You can eliminate the numerous embarrassing inconveniences of dentures, prevent bone loss, and smile, talk and eat with confidence!

Boothbay Harbor, ME – The Boothbay Harbor Region Chamber of Commerce recently unveiled a newly created and highly versatile Internet site designed both to lure a new generation of vacationers to the region and to keep local residents and visitors alike connected with area merchants and businesses as well as community events. What clearly underscores the new “www.boothbayharbor.com” is a commitment to enhancing economic vitality, promoting tourism, and enriching region’s unique sense of community.
“In today’s world, more and more people turn to the Internet first to find out about a business, discover a new destination, or keep an eye on what’s going on locally,” said Jaimie Logan, executive director of the Boothbay Harbor Region Chamber of Commerce. “In developing the new website, we’ve ensured that the Boothbay Harbor Region’s information is right at the consumers’ fingertips and that their first impressions are stunning and memorable. We’re very confident that our new website will accomplish both of these objectives.”
Moreover, the Chamber’s leadership has high expectations that the new website will connect the uninitiated and the seasoned visitor with “The Soul of the Coast.” Cindy Mastrella, Chamber marketing committee chair, noted that the website would provide every visitor “with greater insight into this authentic, affordable region, breathtaking camera work from Mitchell Photography, an up-to-the-minute calendar of events, and a searchable directory of local businesses.”
The updated website also offers these features:
• Welcome video
• Online guide book
• In-depth information about area businesses
• Hot deals
• Advertising opportunities
• Ability for Chamber members to update/maintain their own records and posts
The Chamber is also taking advantage of online marketing and social media such as email marketing, Facebook, and YouTube to encourage people to visit online to “discover” Boothbay Harbor – and then to come see for themselves.
“For more than a century, the Boothbay Harbor Region has been a favorite destination of travelers longing to relax and enjoy the rock-bound coast of Maine from land and sea,” says Logan. “Together with the genuine hospitality and friendliness of the people who live and work here, this is unmistakably ‘The Soul of the Coast.’”
