Dental implants are an effective and long-lasting solution for replacing lost or damaged teeth. They consist of small titanium structures that are surgically placed into the jawbone, acting as artificial roots onto which a dental crown or prosthesis is placed.
Benefits:
Functional Restoration: Dental implants restore the ability to chew and speak naturally, allowing for enjoying a varied diet and improving self-confidence in oral communication.
Improved Oral Health: By replacing lost teeth, dental implants help maintain bone structure and alignment of adjacent teeth, preventing bone loss and gum recession.
Durability: Dental implants are a long-term solution that, with proper care and regular visits to the dentist, can last a lifetime.
Enhanced Aesthetics: Crowns or dental prostheses placed on implants are designed to look and feel like natural teeth, providing an aesthetically pleasing smile.
Process
Consultation and Evaluation: During the first visit, the dentist will evaluate the patient’s oral health and determine if dental implants are the right option. Patient expectations will be discussed, and treatment will be planned.
Placement Surgery: During a second visit, the dental implant placement surgery will be performed. This procedure is done under local anesthesia and involves inserting the implants into the jawbone.
Healing and Integration: After surgery, time is allowed for the implants to integrate with the surrounding bone in a process called osseointegration. This healing period can last several months.
Placement of Crown or Prosthesis: Once the implants are fully integrated, a dental crown or prosthesis is placed over them to restore the function and aesthetics of the patient’s smile.
Postoperative Care:
It is crucial to follow the dentist’s instructions for postoperative care, which include good oral hygiene, regular visits to the dentist, and avoiding harmful habits such as smoking.
