DENTAL IMPLANTS:

What are Dental Implants?

Dental implants are devices or fixtures made from titanium alloys shaped as screws, cylinders or blades that serve as artificial roots placed into the jaw bone with a gentle surgical technique under local anesthesia with the use of light sedation. Once the implant is firm in place an abutment or post which protrudes above the gum line is connected to the implant and over this abutment a temporary or permanent restoration is build. Implant dentistry is changing the smiles and the life style of millions of people.

Dental Implants and their benefits:

Millions of people have lost one or more teeth and the consequences are very unpleasant - unattractive smiles, embarrassment of loose and awkward dentures, pain, irritation and difficulty in eating.

Dental Implants will change the smile and lives of millions of people for years to come.

So Dental Implants represent a wise investment in overall health and well being and provide people with Substantial long term benefits.

Dental Implants can convert ill-fitting partial and complete dentures into fixed prosthesis so they function properly.

Missing teeth make people feel embarrassed about their appearance and self conscious about speaking, smiling or eating because their removable dentures are ill fitting and may move or slip during use. All types of dental implants have very high success rate (95-98%)compared to bridge work which has around 85%.

Why dental implants, specially immediate load dental implants verses traditional fixed bridge?

The removal of a tooth in the anterior region of the mouth is unavoidably accompanied by marked resorption (shrinking) of the alveolar ridge (jaw Bone). This presents further functional, phonetic and aesthetic problems that traditionally has been solved by a prosthesis supported by the adjacent teeth ( a bridge).

The preparation of these abutment (adjacent) teeth requires reduction of healthy tooth structure and often necessitates their devitalization or do root canal treatment on these adjacent teeth. These detrimental effects can be prevented simply by replacing the lost or missing tooth with a single implant supported restoration in one single and simple painless step.

Avoid reduction of healthy adjacent teeth as done with bridge work (most bridges have to be replaced every 4-5 years).
