What is a Dental Implant?

A dental implant is like an artificial tooth root. It looks like a small metal screw that is made of titanium. Our dentist near you will place this screw into your jawbone where your missing tooth was. Over time, your bone grows around the implant and keeps it in place. Once it has healed, we add a crown, bridge, or denture to make it look and feel like a real tooth. A dental implant helps you chew, smile, and speak better. It also prevents your jawbone from shrinking because it gives the bone something to hold onto.

Why are Dental Implants the Best Solution?

Whatever your reason for losing your tooth or teeth, be it from infection, tooth decay or gum disease, our team will carefully assess your oral health to determine your suitability for a dental implant. Studies have shown implants are the most effective long-term option to replace missing teeth. Besides improved longevity, the fact that the teeth adjacent to the missing tooth do not have to be altered (as with a conventional bridge) is an added benefit. Additionally, dental implants won’t fall out, slip, or slide in your mouth. You are free to smile, laugh, and chew without the fear of embarrassment. Furthermore, dental implants near you will also preserve the bone in your jaw by providing stimulation to the area affected by tooth loss.

  • They last a long time if you take good care of them.

FAQs

+ What is the best alternative to dental implants?
The best options instead of implants are dental bridges or dentures. A bridge uses nearby teeth to hold a fake tooth. Dentures are removable teeth you can take out and clean.
+ Can I get an implant 20 years after extraction?
Yes, you can have an implant even after 20 years, but your dentist will check whether your jawbone is healthy or not. If not, then you might require a bone graft first.
+ Is it better to save teeth or get implants?
It's normally best to try and save your tooth if possible. However, if the tooth is too badly broken down, then an implant can be a good long-term option.
+ Can I get dental implants with bad teeth?
Yes, but it depends on how bad your teeth are. If they have infections or major problems, they might need to be treated or removed first. Your dentist will help you decide what should be done.
+ What is a flipper tooth?
A flipper tooth is a small, fake tooth that you can take in and out. It fills the gap while you wait for a more permanent fix like an implant or bridge.
