Smile Big Anyone missing one teeth understands how tooth loss can make you feel uncomfortable about smiling or eating in public. You may avoid social situations and as a result begin to feel isolated . This could impact you r daily life and your self-confidence. Current dental implant treatments can change you r life. From a single missing tooth to an entire set of teeth, dental implants restore your appearance, speech , nutrition, oral health, comfort, and self-esteem. So smile big, eat what your want, and be a confident you! Why replace missing teeth ? Losing one or more of your teeth creates a gap in your smile, affects your ability to chew properly, and can alter your diet and nutrition. In addition to these serious issues, tooth loss also causes bone loss. Tooth loss causes bone loss When a tooth is lost , the jawbone beneath it shrinks from lack of stimulation. Not only does losing teeth affect you r smile, it also changes the shape of your face causing you to look prematurely aged. Why choose dental implant ? Crowns , bridges and dentures address the short-term cosmetic problem of missing teeth but do nothing to stop bone loss. Crown & bridge dentistry requires grinding down healthy teeth them at much greater risk for cavities and tooth failure. Bridges do not stop bone . Dentures become uncomfortable and unstable over time as the jawbone shrinks causing eating and speech problems. With dental implants , healthy teeth are not compromised. Dental implants, like natural teeth, stimulate the jaw and stop bone loss. Leading dental organizations recognize dental implants as the standard of care for tooth replacement. What are dental Implants ? Dental implants are the new standard of care for tooth replacement. They bond with healthy bone and provide permanent support for dental crowns and dentures. Dental implants look and feel like natural teeth and can last a lifetime.

Dental implants are used as an alternative to bridges to replace lost tooth/teeth. A titanium implant is set in the toothless area of the jawbone. The jawbone fuses with the titanium surface providing a strong anchorage for the implant. The implant functions as a support for the dental prosthesis – like a ceramic crown – constructed over it. Whether for a single tooth or replacement of all of a patient’s teeth, dental implants are now recognized as standard treatment for a complete range of teeth problems. The dental implant procedure begins with a thorough diagnosis and treatment planning. A recipient site is created in the jawbone with drilling instruments and the implant is inserted into it. In most cases, a healing period of 3 to 6 months is required for the jawbone to fuse with the implant. After this healing period, the prosthesis is constructed over the implant.
