Implants

In the era before dental implants, dentures stood as the sole alternative for replacing missing teeth.

Implants, innovative synthetic structures, are strategically positioned in the natural tooth’s root area. Serving as a stable foundation, they anchor to the jawbone or a metal framework on the bone, providing support for an artificial tooth or a permanent bridge. In certain cases, implants can even be utilized to secure dentures.

However, not everyone qualifies for a dental implant. Successful implant integration demands proper bone density and a robust immune system. Rigorous oral hygiene is a prerequisite for all implant candidates.

Exhibiting a remarkable resemblance to natural teeth in both appearance and sensation, implants are typically crafted from biocompatible materials like metal or ceramic.

Implant placement involves a surgical procedure to prepare the area and position the implant in the mouth. Following this, a healing period ensues, allowing the implant to secure itself and encouraging the growth of bone tissue to anchor the device. In some instances, metal posts are inserted during a subsequent procedure to connect the tooth.

Given the surgical nature of implants, patients undergo anesthesia, and antibiotics may be prescribed post-procedure to prevent infection.

Similar to any dental restoration, implants necessitate meticulous oral hygiene and proper care to ensure their longevity. Entrust your smile to our expertise, and experience the enduring benefits of well-maintained implants.
