Dental Implants – the most precious gift to humankind from modern dentistry; they look and function like natural teeth! Dental implants are really the next best thing to your natural teeth, people of all ages have huge benefits from them.
Dental implants are titanium fixtures, screwed into the jawbone; mainly working as an anchor, holding a tooth/a set of teeth on it. Following this, they will then hold the crown, bridge or denture the very way that your tooth root would typically grip the natural teeth. Dental implants are highly successful. They are the best alternative for types of bridges and removable partial or full dentures; truly, the most permanent dental solution!
Single Tooth Missing: A single tooth implant with crown is one of the best permanent restorations. And more importantly, it does not require grinding your adjacent healthy teeth for bridging.
Multiple Teeth Missing: If multiple teeth are missing in different parts of the mouth, several single tooth implants are good replacement restorations.
If multiple teeth are missing within the same region: Several missing teeth can sometimes be replaced with fewer implants because dental implants are stronger than the natural tooth roots. This solution includes having implant fixed bridges done.
All Teeth Missing: There are two options
Fixed Bridges anchored to Dental Implants: It will replace a full jaw with dental implants along with a bridge fixed over them; thereby resulting in permanent and stable teeth structure and functions.
Implant Supported Dentures: They are the full dentures (overdentures) supported by implants – eliminating risks of them getting slipped off the places. Implants that are screwed in a jaw would provide better attachment for a metal bar; helping to support a removable denture.
