What Exactly Are Dental Implants?
They are tiny titanium posts that are surgically embedded into the jawbone as if they are roots of teeth. Used as artificial substitutes for missing teeth, dental implants are considered the ultimate option for replacement. Once completely healed, however, these will support custom-made crowns, bridges, or dentures that mimic the properties of feel and function like natural teeth.
Why Implantation?
Having an empty tooth socket is more than an aesthetic problem for the individual. It entails serious consequences such as oral health and daily comfort. Hence, it provides a permanent restoration of dental implants because:
Natural Look – Blends with other existing teeth.
Durability – In most instances, they will last until death if well taken care of.
Function Restoration – Makes it possible to eat, chew, or speak again with ease for a normal person.
Preservation of Jawbone – Implants stimulate the bone; they prevent resorption.
Improvement of Self-esteem – People look better with complete and healthily looking smiles.
The Dental Implant Procedure
Your first meeting will consist of consultation and examination; usually, the procedure undergone afterward during implant involves:
Placing the Implant – The titanium post is placed into the jawbone.
Healing & Integration – This is the process where for time, the bone grows with stability to form.
Restoration – The last step is by attaching to it the custom crown, bridge, or denture attaching which completes the new smile.
We ensure that any steps given to you will be comfortable and adapted to your condition.
Are Dental Implants for You?
If you:
Have one or more teeth missing
Have healthy gums and have sufficient jawbone support
Have the desire for a stable and permanent solution to partial dentures, complete dentures, or bridges
Have a commitment to good oral hygiene practices and long-term dental visits
Then you will most likely be a candidate for receiving that dental implant procedure. In most cases, if you are not a candidate for the procedure, preparatory treatments like bone grafting or sinus lifts may be available to make the successful placement of an implant possible.
