What are Dental Implants?


Dental implants are screws and placements put in the gums of the mouth that prosthetic teeth are screwed into. This is a process that has to been gone through in steps in order to let the gums and mouth heal with time. Once the process is done, though, the teeth are more permanent than without having the screws and other mechanisms put in place.

Many patients choose to go this route over dentures since they're more permanent, as well as looking real. It is a great alternative to removable dentures that would otherwise slip out of place, or a partial when just a few teeth are missing. Replacing one, two or even three teeth through this method provides the patient with a more confident smile.

Dental Implants Intro

Are You a Good Candidate for Dental Implants?


Not everyone can qualify for dental implant surgery. The ideal candidate has to have enough bone in their gums to hold the implants in place. This has to be evaluated by the dentist, as well as having a good oral hygiene record. Each patient is taken on a patient by patient basis to ensure that they're the best candidate for the process.

Not only that, but your past and present medical and dental history will be taken into consideration during the process.

If you are considering dental implants, it is important to speak with a dentist regarding the specific steps that need to be taken to find out if you're an ideal candidate.

Benefits of Dental Implants


There are numerous benefits that patients are able to obtain through the use of dental implants.

Knowing these benefits will help you make a decision on whether or not they are right for you.
•  Dental implants are long lasting and beautiful. You never have to remove them, they look and feel like real teeth.
•  You have a more confident smile.
•  You can eat, talk, drink and brush your teeth like you normally would since they act just like your actual teeth would.
•  Implants need the same care as your normal teeth, but since they're made out of a specific material, you do not have to worry about cavities or other issues that would arise with your normal teeth.
•  Your teeth that are currently in your mouth will not become ruined because of infection, missing teeth, grinding teeth or any other issues. The implants are supported in the mouth so this does not happen.
•  Dental implants are more reliable and trustworthy than other dental methods on the market, so you can ensure that they will be a long lasting solution to the tooth problem you're currently experiencing.
•  Ideal for younger patients that have lost their teeth, as well to make them feel more confident about being able to have prosthetic teeth that do not have to be removed.

Dental implants are an ideal alternative to having regular dentures. Since they do not slip or move out of place, they provide the patient with more confidence.

They are also an easy solution for when there is a tooth or two missing. Speaking with a dental professional regarding the process and solutions you're looking for is the first step to having a beautiful smile once again.
