Implant:An option for tooth replacement

A dental implant is an artificial tooth root that is placed into your jaw to hold a replacement tooth or bridge.

Advantages-

  1. Long term fixed replacement of missing teeth without cutting adjacent teeth (done for fixed bridges or FPD).
  2. Dental implants can restore oral health, form and function of the dentition, improve esthetics.

When you should consider getting dental implants?

Implants can be placed anytime after tooth loss depending upon other factors;

Replacing a single tooth  If you are missing a single tooth, one implant and a crown can replace it.

Replacing Several Teeth   If you are missing several teeth, implant-supported bridges can replace them.

Replacing All of Your Teeth   If you are missing all of your teeth, an implant-supported full bridge or full denture can replace them.

BENEFITS

  • Built to last. Dental implants are a long-term solution.
  • Retain your natural face shape, and smile.
