Dental Implants
What are Dental Implants?
We believe Dental Implants has revolutionized the dentistry. Dental Implants are meant to replace tooth roots with a very high-quality screw like Titanium root. This replacement of missing teeth with artificial teeth looks and function like real teeth. Implants work just like the original tooth. It may be a brilliant alternative to dentures or dental bridges.
Dental Implants process depends on the condition of your jawbone. Implants if suitable for you will outshine its sturdy and robust support to your new teeth compared to any other treatment options like bridges or simple dentures. It requires a process for the bone to heal tightly around the implant, accepting it as a kind of an integral part of the bone. Healing of the bone takes time; therefore, the patient should keep in the mind that this is a lengthy procedure.
These surgically placed implants work as the alternative to your missing tooth roots. It is a proven fact that Titanium fuses very well with human bones. Therefore, your new implant-based teeth will remain sturdy and never decay.
Your exact diagnosis and treatment planning will depend on the number of missing teeth you have. Usually, a single tooth will replace a single implant, and then a fixed crown is placed on top of it. In the case of multiple tooth loss, we can manage it in a few ways. A bridge or denture will be securely seated on top of the dental implants. Since implants are a strong replacement, only four or six implants can support the complete denture. The results are far superior to conventional dentures. Your dentures anchored on implants will be sturdy. Your denture snaps on your implant abutment and locks firmly on it. You can take it out for cleaning and snap it back on again. You may not have to throw away your existing dentures; they can be retrofitted to fit the new implants.
An implant candidate should keep in mind that he / she:
- Preferably doesn’t smoke or chew tobacco.
- Is unwilling, uncomfortable, or unable to wear dentures.
- Is willing to commit several months to the treatment.
You are an excellent candidate to replace your missing teeth with Dental Implant if:
- You have a full-grown healthy jawbone.
- If you have enough bone density to secure an implant, if not, we will see the probability of bone graft.
- You otherwise have healthy oral tissues, and your general health condition is not restrictive to your healing process.
