What are the advantages of implants?
Implants are an excellent choice for replacing a single missing tooth. In this procedure, a metal post is secured to your jaw and a tooth is attached to it, effectively replacing both the old tooth and its root. This method offers numerous advantages for your dental health. Unlike alternatives such as a tooth-supported fixed bridge, a single tooth implant does not necessitate the preparation of adjacent teeth, preserving the health of your existing teeth. As a result, your new tooth can be replaced without any unnecessary treatment of surrounding teeth.
Why replace the root?
Dental implants not only replace missing or damaged teeth, but also their roots, creating a stable base for the new tooth. This promotes integration with the jawbone through osseointegration, ensuring long-term maintenance and durability. Unlike dentures or bridges, implants prevent jawbone deterioration, leading to a healthier jawbone and secure tooth replacement.
How Will My Implant Look?
Your new tooth will seamlessly blend with your natural teeth, giving a natural appearance and causing minimal discomfort. It will be difficult for most people to distinguish between your new tooth and the surrounding teeth.
