Dental Implants – A Better Option for Proxy Teeth


Dental procedures at present emphasize precautionary measures which results in much lesser tooth loss rates. Even though a lot of people like you are losing teeth as a result of gum diseases, dental caries, and other causes.  Initially, Dental Implants were exercised for maintaining dentures in the entire jaw. Benefits of Implants turn out to be obvious and this technology was adapted for the replacement of one or more teeth. Dental Implant has now become better choice for the replacement of your missing tooth. Most popular dental proxies are Bridges and full or partial dentures. Bridges or Dentures will only tackle with the temporary cosmetics problem of you missing teeth, but, they can do nothing in stopping bone loss in the area of missing teeth.

For Dental Bridges, two or more teeth need to be reduced in size, in order to act as pillars/augments. With Dental Implants, your healthy teeth are not crumpled and they convey the chewing forces to the jaw thus stopping bone loss. Dental Implants are said to be the better standard of teeth replacement care. You can replace your missing teeth roots with supportive posts. These supportive posts are usually made up of titanium. This can be used to restore your single tooth, several teeth or for the whole reformation of your distorted mouth, as titanium is the only bio-compatible metal. Titanium will fuse with your jaw bone within a period of 3-6 months.

Normally, Dental Implants are carried out in three phases, the treatment planning, implant placement and crown placement. In order to plan the treatment, your Dentist will take x-rays and create a model of your existing teeth. It is with the help of this model, your Dentist is able to determine how and where the implant should be placed. The Dental Implant is then placed in the bone and allows to osseointegrate within a given period of time before attaching the Dental Crown. Maintaining a good Oral Hygiene is the better part you have to play for attaining long-term Implant success. Your Dentists will put you on routine Dental check-ups. Dental Implants can give you lifetime pleasure, if appropriate care should be given.
