The mildew smell is caused by
residual detergent left in the
sump of the washer. 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. Roby’s recommends
our Excelsior HE liquid detergent available
exclusively at Roby’s!

Many options exist to
address this situation.
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.
