How do I know if heart palpitations are caused by an irregular heart rhythm?

My general approach to palpitations involves a detailed history and examination, followed by investigations tailored to each patient’s clinical presentation. As there are many causes of palpitations, a detailed assessment is needed to distinguish the various causes. When looking out for irregular heart rhythms (arrhythmia) in particular, I pay attention to the heart rate (too slow or too fast?) , blood pressure (too low or too high?) , pulse (regular or irregular?) I will also auscultate the heart to check for abnormal heart sounds like murmurs.

Are there cases where people have to replace multiple teeth with implants?

Yes. We definitely have seen that happen. Sometimes people lose a lot of teeth because they have gum disease. Let’s say you get 8 teeth extracted at one time, then you have to put in implants. The thing about having multiple teeth is that if they are in a gap, you do not have to replace every single tooth lost with a dental implant. Sometimes we can have dental implant bridges, so say you lost like 8 teeth, you can actually have 5 posts. So 8 teeth hanging on the 5 posts. Those are called dental implant bridges.
