Dental implants are a popular option for patients who need to replace a single tooth or several teeth. These restorations are available with the team at K & E Advanced Dentistry This treatment can be used for a variety of purposes, and our dental staff can help you decide if they are right for you!
Drs. Mamta Kori and Scott Everhart work with patients to give them the knowledge they need to make an educated decision when choosing a tooth replacement treatment option. Dental implants are a popular option that can be used by patients with enough bone in the jaw. These implants are made of titanium, which is biocompatible. Many implants for the body are made of this same metal because it is strong, long-lasting, and safe. The implants look like small screws which the dentist will insert into the bone of the jaw during oral surgery. This stimulates a process called osseointegration during which the bone fuses to the implant to keep it firmly in the jaw. Because of this process, dental implants are considered a permanent solution to missing teeth.
It is important for patients to have sufficient bone if they are considering the placement of dental implants. This means that patients who have had bone loss from periodontal disease may not be considered best for placing dental implants. These restorations need bone to hold them in place and to stimulate osseointegration. Without enough bone, the implants can fail. Patients who have lost bone and want to get implants need to have x-rays done to determine if they are a viable candidate. If bone loss is an issue, patients can speak to their dentist about bone grafting, which can help build up the bone and prepare it for the placement of a dental implant if patients are serious about obtaining these restorations.
Dental implants serve a purpose in many ways.
There are many reasons a patient may want to consider dental implants. They have several benefits. They are strong, durable, and long-lasting. Though they are more expensive than traditional partial and full dentures or dental bridges, they maintain their value because of their permanency. Dental implants can last a lifetime when patients brush and floss their teeth after every meal and maintain routine visits and cleanings with their dentists. This ensures the longevity of their investment. In most cases, we will encourage patients to consider the advantages of dental implants when replacing missing teeth.
