Dental implants are an option when deciding on replacing missing or cracked teeth. Implants can be the best option for patients with one missing tooth to patients with no teeth at all. Dental implants consist of a biocompatible titanium post inserted in the jawbone, replacing the root of the missing tooth, and a custom implant that attaches to the post. Through a process called osseointegration, the bone and post bond together, forming the full implant. The appearance depends on the needs of the patient. The implant can resemble a dental bridge, a partial denture, a full denture, or simply a crown.
Signs You Need a Dental Implant
The easiest way to decide whether a patient needs a dental implant is to assess one’s smile. Are you missing any teeth that used to play a vital role in your smile’s glow? Then you may want to consider dental implants! Dental implants, if properly cared for, can last a lifetime and provide a patient with a natural-appearing replacement for their missing teeth. If you are having a hard time chewing, that can also be a sign of getting dental implants. Besides restoring your smile, implants are a great way to improve the use of your teeth.
