Dental implants are a realistic replacement for missing teeth, meaning that you can smile with confidence again without the need of wearing a denture. Dental implants are a great way of replacing one or more missing teeth. They are strong, permanent, and look and feel completely natural.
What Are Dental Implants?
Dental implants are a modern treatment for replacing missing teeth. Dental implants are fitted to the bone where the tooth root would usually be.This provides a strong foundation for new permanent or removable teeth or dentures. When fitted with a professional practitioner, dental implants are indistinguishable from other teeth.
Why consider dental implants?
- Dental implants can improve your overall oral health by preventing bone loss and maintaining the integrity of adjacent teeth.
- Implants are known for their durability and can last a lifetime with proper care and maintenance.
- They are designed to blend seamlessly with your existing teeth, providing a natural and aesthetically pleasing smile.
- Dental implants can improve your ability to chew and speak properly, restoring your confidence and comfort.
- By preventing bone loss, dental implants help maintain the natural shape of your face and prevent the sunken appearance that can occur with missing teeth or traditional dentures.
- Regaining a full and beautiful smile can significantly boost your self-esteem and confidence.
Why Consider Dental Implants?
Beyond the cosmetic disadvantages, missing teeth can also be bad news for your oral health. The space left by a lost tooth can cause adjacent teeth to fall into the gap.
The teeth on the opposing jaw may also be inclined to drift into the space. This slow drifting into the gap where the tooth needs to be replaced can cause bite problems if left untreated.
If the surrounding bone collapses into the socket which is left exposed due to a missing tooth, this can result in a resorption of the bone in your jaw. This resorption affects the overlying gum and causes it to shrink.
The gum on the adjacent teeth can also shrink back causing black triangles to appear either side of the gap. Due to a reduction in bone and gum in the area where the tooth was removed, the aesthetics of your teeth and smile are compromised.
In time, this loss of bone means that future dental implants are either impossible to place or more costly as additional bone grafting may be required. We recommend considering dental implants immediately after the loss of any teeth.
