Losing a tooth can happen for any number of reasons, from trauma to oral disease. The loss of a tooth or several teeth can cause different problems. Apart from affecting your appearance, it can also cause functional problems, affecting speech and even the ability to chew. Fortunately, there are options to restore your smile and ability to chew with ease.
If you are looking for a permanent solution, dental implants are a good option. Your dentist will install a biocompatible post in the jaw which fuses with the bone during surgical recovery. A crown or artificial tooth is placed on top of the post to restore the missing tooth. If a patient is missing an arch, several implants can be implanted to stabilize dentures.
A significant benefit of dental implants is that the post securing it to the jawbone is permanently installed. It replaces the root of the real tooth, which prevents the jawbone from shrinking or reshaping. Some replacements leave a gap that allows the bone to shrink with time. The resulting benefit is that dental implants protect bone density. Another plus implants offer is that they look and feel just like real or natural teeth. They are easy to clean and maintain.
If you are wondering whether you qualify for a dental implant, there are several things to consider. Dental implants work for most people who have missing teeth. However, they are not for everyone. The following requirements must be considered:
Whether you are missing a single tooth or several teeth, you will benefit from dental implants. Visit a dentist for a consultation to determine whether the procedure is for you. The dentist will assess your condition and overall oral health. He or she can provide more information about the procedure, the process, the cost, and the types of implants available. Dental implants are customized to fit every individual. This ensures that they are attractive and comfortable for you.
