Dental Implants Process
Implants can be used to replace one or multiple missing teeth. They can even be used to replace all the teeth in your mouth. The dental implant post consists of a screw made from titanium. It is surgically placed in the jawbone where the tooth is missing. This screw serves as the tooth’s root and provides stability for your dental restoration. Once the screw is inserted, it begins to bond with the bone. Once the mouth has healed, our dentist will insert the dental implant restoration.
This often consists of a replacement tooth that sits atop the post. However, each mouth is different. Based on your unique dental needs, this restoration may be a dental bridge, dental crown, partial denture, or complete denture. Each dental implant restoration is made to fit your mouth. They are custom-made by the dentist.
Benefits of Dental Implants
Modern dental implants have been used for more than 30 years. They are very strong and safe. In addition, implants offer many other benefits, such as the following:
- Function like regular teeth. Dental implants are comfortable and look like normal teeth. You simply brush and floss them daily like regular teeth. You can eat normally and they do not need to be removed, unlike dentures.
- They are long-lasting. If cared for properly, dental implants can last many decades – maybe even the rest of your life.
- Improve oral health. Dental implants prevent issues caused by missing teeth, such as deterioration of the jawbone and shifting teeth. They not only prevent bone loss but stimulate bone growth as well. Also, they help you maintain the shape of your face.
- They improve confidence. You no longer have to hide your mouth or refuse to smile. Dental implants look like real teeth, so you will no longer be embarrassed. You can also eat as normal, improving your self-esteem.
