Dental Implant

 

Dental implants are used to replace missing teeth generally used to support the crowns, dentures or bridges that are used to restore spans of teeth. An implant is typically made of titanium, which is one of the most corrosion resistant metals. The titanium implant is then surgically fixed inside the jaw bone. Once the implants are biologically accepted by your body, the root-like device is then used to attach dental restoration devices that can aesthetically replicate a single tooth of a group of missing teeth. 

DENTAL IMPLANTS are an artificial object that simulates a tooth root and is placed surgically into the jaw bone and serves as an anchor or foundation for fixed or removable replacement teeth.

Losing one or more teeth in the mouth leads to an inability to chew properly and a gap in your smile and also leads to bone loss. Replacing missing teeth with dental implants restores that confidence in your smile and ability to chew and enjoy any food you like. The best part is you can achieve this without compromising adjacent healthy teeth.

Why do we need Dental Implants?

 

The dental implant is the closest & best way of replacing the tooth that was lost. Any other way of replacing the tooth will definitely compromise adjacent teeth or bone or gum condition etc over a period.

Removable teeth (Removable Partial Dentures) used to replace missing teeth is not a fixed option and over the time bone loss happens in such a way that fixed options like implant will be difficult to do at the later date unless aggressive bone grafting surgical procedures done.

Although, the bridge is a fixed option it compromises adjacent teeth by grinding it into small shape to hold the bridge. The extra load of the bridge adds extra forces on grinding teeth and even they become loose over few years which has to be removed over a period of 6-10 years.

 There are several advantages of dental implants:

  • Dental implants function and look just like original teeth
  • The c andidate experiences no complications while chewing or eating with dental implants
  • The structure of the bone present beneath the tooth is well-maintained without damage and the natural process of bone renewal is stimulated
  • A good appearance of restored teeth and face is preserved
  • There is no need to use special glues to hold teeth in place, like in the case of dentures
  • Even the removable dentures are firmly fixed with dental implants
  • Adjacent teeth are not compromised (ground) to act as a support for missing teeth and do not need root fillings.

Frequently Asked Questions:

 
Dental Implants are a safe, well-established, tried- and-tested treatment. It’s probably true to say that dental implants, much like natural teeth, will last for as long as you care for them. How well you look after your dental implants – and whether you go for your regular maintenance appointments – will have the biggest impact on how long they will last.
 

If you don’t look after your dental implants they will develop a coating similar to that found on neglected natural teeth. Left untreated, this can lead to gum infection, bleeding, soreness and general discomfort. You could get all these problems with natural teeth.

If your dental implants are well looked after, and if the bone they are fitted to is strong and healthy, you can expect them to last for many years. However, just as with other surgical implants (such as a hip replacement) there is no lifetime guarantee.

 

It depends on the condition of the bone in your jaw.  Few special tests need to be done to find out the amount of bone still there. If there is not enough, or if it isn’t healthy enough, it may not be possible to place dental implants without grafting bone into the area first. If the bone quality is good, it is the best option to replace the missing tooth with a dental implant.
Dental implants are stronger and more durable than dentures or a dental bridge. They offer a permanent solution to tooth loss. In the case of multiple missing teethdental implants may be used to support a dental bridge or with dentures to increase stability and reduce gum irritationDental implants, whether used in combination with dentures or a dental bridge or on their own, make it easier to eat the foods you love, speak clearly, and smile with confidence.
When you don’t replace a missing tooth, it can result in damage to adjacent teeth by causing gum recession and bone loss around those teeth. It can cause your other teeth to wear prematurely. You may experience difficulty eating and speaking, shifting teeth, jaw aches, and headaches. Also, when you lose a tooth and its accompanying root, you can experience bone loss in your jaw. A dental implant gives the bone purpose, providing it with something to hold onto. If a great deal of time has passed since the tooth came out and too much bone in the jaw has been lost, grafting may be necessary to increase bone mass before a dental implant procedure can be done.
