Dental implants are a revolutionary dental technology that effectively replaces missing teeth. An implant consists of a titanium post surgically placed into the jawbone, acting as a root for the artificial tooth. Once in place, a custom-made crown that matches your natural teeth is attached to this post. This results in a sturdy, stable, and visually appealing replacement.
Benefits of Dental Implants
- Natural Look and Feel: Implants mimic your natural teeth in appearance and functionality.
- Improved Oral Health: Unlike bridges, implants do not require altering adjacent teeth, preserving more of your natural tooth structure.
- Durability: With proper care, implants can last a lifetime.
- Improved Comfort and Speech: Implants eliminate the discomfort of removable dentures and prevent the slurred speech they can cause.
- Convenience: Say goodbye to the inconvenience of removing dentures or using messy adhesives.
- Bone Preservation: Implants stimulate the jawbone, preventing bone loss that often occurs with missing teeth.
Are You a Candidate for Dental Implants?
Ideal candidates for dental implants have good overall health and sufficient jawbone to support the implant. Issues like uncontrolled diabetes or heavy smoking can impact the success of implants. We assess your situation to determine the best approach for you.
The Impact of Missing Teeth
Living with missing teeth affects your smile and can lead to serious oral health issues. Over time, missing teeth can cause remaining teeth to shift, leading to misalignment and bite problems. This can further contribute to difficulties in eating and speaking. Additionally, the absence of teeth can lead to bone loss in the jaw, altering your facial structure and appearance.
