Bone loss will always follow the loss of a tooth. It can affect your appearance, your speech, your ability to enjoy food, and your self-esteem. If bone is lost even from a single tooth, it will also affect the support required by the remaining adjacent teeth.
Dental Implants are no longer reserved for only special or extreme cases of bone loss, and have become a preventive tool as well as a restorative one. They can be used to replace a single tooth or an entire set of teeth before further bone damage occurs. They can even be used to anchor dentures or bridgework.
Patients are attracted to Dental Implants because they look and feel so much like natural teeth. They keep gums looking healthy and young as well.
Dental Implants are root-like pegs made of titanium that are placed in the jawbone. The titanium becomes anchored to the surrounding bone, just like your natural root, and replacement teeth are permanently attached.
To find out if you are a candidate for Dental Implants, you'll need a comprehensive dental examination with x-rays. It will ensure that you are a good candidate for implants, and answer any questions you may have in determining how Dental Implants are the right solution for your smile.
