Dental Implants

What Are Dental Implants?

A dental implant is a titanium or metal post surgically inserted into the jawbone to serve as the root of the tooth. The dental implant has three parts:

• Dental implant – A titanium post inserted into the jawbone to serve as the tooth of the root.
• Abutment – Connects the dental implant to the replacement tooth.
• Dental crown – Tooth-coloured replacement tooth.

A dental implant is a permanent solution to missing teeth.

Why Is It Important To Replace Missing Tooth/Teeth?

A missing tooth/teeth means more than just an empty space in your mouth. It can lead to more dental issues such as:

• Bite difficulty
• Shifting out of position of remaining teeth
• Disrupted distribution of pressure during eating
• Not enough support on your cheeks, giving a hollowed look to your face

Once a dental implant is inserted, balance returns and your jawbone can fully support your lips and cheeks.

Benefits Of Dental Implants

Dental implants are a popular dental restoration option because of their many benefits such as:

Improves biting and chewing capacity

Dental implants are durable and can effectively take on your teeth’s job during eating. With dental implants, food limitations are lessened. You can go back to eating your favourite foods.

Provides stability in the mouth

With the missing tooth replaced, the pressure that occurs during eating is now properly distributed among the sections of the mouth.

Permanence and durability

Dental implants are permanent. Once inserted, they don’t fall out. With proper dental care, they can last as long as natural teeth.

Improved oral health

Your overall oral health is improved with the dental implants in place. Implants stop dental issues arising from missing teeth, such as unwanted shifting of remaining teeth.

Looks and feels like your natural tooth

Your dental implants are made to feel and look like your natural teeth

Improved appearance

With your missing teeth replaced, the natural structure of your face and cheeks is returned.
