Teeth Implants
Are you having difficulty with chewing food due to missing teeth? Or, are you simply tired of poorly fitting or loose dentures? Dental implants could be exactly what you have been looking for all along, and you could enjoy the comfort you used to have with your own teeth again. With advancement of the technology in this field, implants have not only become the permanent solution but also improved one’s aesthetics and comfort.
How do we do it?
Implants permanently fill in the gaps resulting from lost teeth. Implants protect other teeth; unlike crown or other flexible dentures, implants do not cause erosion or further decaying on neighboring teeth and they prevent or ease pressure on other teeth. They prevent or slow down bone loss. They make partial dentures to become more stable/permanent in their spot. Imlants are durable, and they are designed to look and feel just like your own natural teeth.
Timeline
Dental implants are made by placing biocompatible titanium in jaw bone. After the implant is placed in the jawbone if the surrounding soft tissue and the bone are compatible with the metal, two weeks might be enough to complete this first phase. Next phase involves attaching a porcelain crown to the titanium piece and you are ready to show your beautiful smile.
