Dental Implants: Replacement Teeth That
Look and Feel Like Your Own
A dental implant is an artificial tooth root that an oral Implantologist
places into your jaw to hold a replacement tooth or bridge. Dental
implants are an ideal option for people in good general oral health who
have lost a tooth or teeth due to an injury, or any other reasons.
While high-tech in nature, dental implants are actually more
tooth-saving than traditional bridgework, since implants do not rely on
neighboring teeth for support.
Dental implants are so natural-looking and feeling; you may forget you
ever lost a tooth. You know that your confidence about your teeth
affects how you feel about yourself, both personally and professionally.
Perhaps you hide your smile because of spaces from missing teeth. Maybe
your dentures don't feel secure. Perhaps you have difficulty chewing. If
you are missing one or more teeth and would like to smile, speak and eat
again with comfort and confidence, there is good news! Dental
implants are teeth that can look and feel just like your own! Under
proper conditions, such as placement by an oral Implantologist and
diligent patient maintenance, implants can last a lifetime. Long-term
studies continue to show improving success rates for implants.
What Dental Implants Can Do?
●
Replace one or more teeth without
affecting bordering teeth.
●
Support a bridge and eliminate the need
for a removable partial denture.
●
Provide support for a denture, making it
more secure and comfortable.
Advantages of Dental Implants over Dentures or a Bridge
Every way you look at it, dental implants are a better solution to the
problem of missing teeth.
Esthetic Dental implants look and feel like your own
teeth! Since dental implants integrate into the structure of your bone,
they prevent the bone loss and gum recession that often accompany
bridgework and dentures. No one will ever know that you have a
replacement tooth.
Tooth-saving Dental implants don't sacrifice the quality
of your adjacent teeth like a bridge does because neighboring teeth are
not altered to support the implant. More of your own teeth are left
untouched, a significant long-term benefit to your oral health!
Confidence Dental implants will allow you to once again
speak and eat with comfort and confidence! They are secure and offer
freedom from the irksome clicks and wobbles of dentures. They'll allow
you to say goodbye to worries about misplaced dentures and messy pastes
and glues.
Reliable The success rate of dental implants is highly
predictable. They are considered an excellent option for tooth
replacement.
Are You a Candidate for Dental Implants?
The ideal candidate for a dental implant is in good general and oral
health. Adequate bone in your jaw is needed to support the implant, and
the best candidates have healthy gum tissues that are free of
periodontal disease.
Dental implants are intimately connected with the gum tissues and
underlying bone in the mouth. Since oral implantologists are the dental
experts who specialize in precisely these areas, they are ideal members
of your dental implant team. They have experience working with other
dental professionals, they also have the special knowledge, training and
facilities that you need to have teeth that look and feel just like your
own. We at
Dr.Sathya's Dental Care & Implant Centre
will work together to make
your dreams come true. As we do have all the dental specialties under
one roof, we believe we do to the best for you to smile with confidence.
Depending on your specific condition and the type of implant chosen, we
will create a treatment plan tailored to meet your needs.
Treatment options
Replacing a single tooth
If you are missing a single tooth, one implant and a crown can replace
it. A dental implant replaces both the lost natural tooth and its root.
Replacing several teeth If you are missing several teeth,
implant-supported bridges can replace them. Dental implants will replace
both your lost natural teeth and some of the roots.
Replacing all of your teeth If you are missing all of your
teeth, an implant-supported full bridge or full denture can replace
them. Dental implants will replace both your lost natural teeth and some
of the roots.
Sinus augmentation A key to implant success is the
quantity and quality of the bone where the implant is to be placed. The
upper back jaw has traditionally been one of the most difficult areas to
successfully place dental implants due to insufficient bone quantity and
quality and the close proximity to the sinus. Sinus augmentation can
help correct this problem by raising the sinus floor and developing bone
for the placement of dental implants.
Ridge modification Deformities in the upper or lower jaw
can leave you with inadequate bone in which to place dental implants. To
correct the problem, the gum is lifted away from the ridge to expose the
bony defect. The defect is then filled with bone or bone substitute to
build up the ridge. Ridge modification has been shown to greatly improve
appearance and increase your chances for successful implants that can
last for years to come.
What Can I Expect After Treatment?
As you know, your own teeth require conscientious at-home oral care and
regular dental visits. Dental implants are like your own teeth and will
require the same care. In order to keep your implant clean and
plaque-free, brushing and flossing still apply!
After treatment, your oral implantologist will work closely with you and
your dentist to develop the best care plan for you. Periodic follow-up
visits will be scheduled to monitor your implant, teeth and gums to make
sure they are healthy. |
