BEVERLY HILLS, CA, May 08, 2013 (Press-News.org) Los Angeles periodontist, Dr. Sam Markzar, provides free second opinion consultations for patients who are considering dental implants. The placement of dental implants is process that offers many benefits for some patients, but because the procedure can be time consuming and costly, it is important to be informed about the options before the patient commits.
Dental implants consist of two main parts: the titanium or titanium alloy rod and the crown. The rod is implanted into the jaw, where the bone will fuse with the rod, forming a secure bond with the implant. Once the bone has healed, a process that typically takes three to six weeks, Dr. Markzar, Los Angeles dental implants dentist, restores the implant with a dental crown. This crown is specially designed to look and feel just like the patient's natural teeth.
In some cases, however, the patient may not be ideally suited for dental implants. Some patients do not have sufficient jaw bone, which will require a bone graft before an implant can be placed. While many patients still decide to get the implant despite the need for a bone graft, the success rate of the procedure may be reduced. Children, patients with periodontal disease, patients with certain other health conditions such as diabetes, and smokers may also not be ideal candidates for dental implants. As a result, it is important to get a second opinion from Dr. Markzar, periodontist in Beverly Hills, to make sure that a dental implant is the right solution for the patient's needs.
Dr. Sam Markzar specializes in both placing and restoring dental implants. Few area dentists have such thorough knowledge of dental implants, and as a result, Dr. Markzar can offer unique insights into the process and a patient's individual case.

How Invisalign Works
2013-05-08
Like braces, Invisalign works by addressing malocclusion. Unlike braces, Invisalign does this by gently pushing your teeth into their proper position. Braces use wires and brackets attached to teeth to pull your teeth into place. While this can eliminate bite issues, it can also be extremely painful. Worse still, for adults, the often painful treatment of traditional braces can be compounded by their obtrusive appearance and it can take well over three years to complete treatment.
By contrast, Invisalign aligner trays are clear, making them unnoticeable. Treatment with ...

California family law: the domestic partnership
2013-05-08
As complex as the legal path of the attempt to legalize same-sex marriage has been in California, a different option some have chosen is that of the California domestic partnership, an established, legal alternative to marriage for same-sex and a narrow group of opposite-sex couples.
The basics of California domestic partnership law
California law defines domestic partners as "two adults who have chosen to share one another's lives in an intimate and committed relationship of mutual caring," and further provides that a domestic partnership is legally established ...
Researchers develop new treatment for spinal cord injuries
2013-05-08
Spinal cord injuries are prevalent across the nation, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The CDC reports that most of them are caused by motor vehicle accidents. However, injuries sustained while playing sports, slip and falls and as a result of violence cause a significant number as well. Any time that there is any damage, it is serious, as the spinal cord provides the vital function of protecting the brain's connection with the respiratory, musculoskeletal, urinary and gastrointestinal systems.

Fatigued drivers a threat on Florida roads
2013-05-08
Public safety officials in Florida and across the U.S. have devoted a great deal of energy to researching the dangers of distracted driving and educating the public about distracted driving risks. However, new research suggests that "drowsy driving" may be as much of a public safety threat as distracted driving. An April 2013 study from the Virginia Tech Transportation Institute showed the extent to which driver fatigue is a factor in auto accidents and near-accidents.
Driver fatigue bigger problem than previously suspected
Researchers from the Virginia ...
Lack of speedy trial results in dismissal in DWI charges
2013-05-08
Police make hundreds of traffic stops each day throughout New Jersey. While many of these interactions between law enforcement officers and motorists end with a citation for a minor offense, some may lead to more serious charges. If an arrest is made, police and prosecutors will need to follow certain procedures to ensure that an individual's rights are being protected.
A recent New Jersey Supreme Court case addressed an issue that arose out of a drunk-driving arrest. In this case, the individual got into an accident that injured a police officer. The motorist had a ...
