Most laundry detergent contains protein fillers which are derived from animal fat. Make sure you are using an HE (high efficiency) detergent without these protein fillers. After each use of your washer you should wipe down the rubber door seal and leave the door ajar so the interior drys out.

Factors which determine the best option are patient interest, position of tooth, position of gum level, height and width of the bone, esthetic concerns and challenges, condition of adjacent teeth, and patient expectations. Available options to consider and discuss are doing nothing, fabrication of an economical removable “flipper”, construction of a fixed bridge, and placement of a dental implant supporting an implant crown. The bridge and implant options are the most durable, esthetic and pleasing options to consider.
