Dental Implants

 When a single tooth is missing, a traditional tooth-supported bridge or an implant-supported crown, are the two most common options to replace it.

A traditional bridge can be very functional and esthetic for a period of time and can be fabricated relatively fast. The disadvantages are that the adjacent teeth must be reshaped or cut down to fit the cemented bridge. With time the adjacent teeth may be susceptible to decay. A traditional tooth-supported bridge also does not stabilize the jawbone where the tooth was lost resulting in continued bone resorption in that area.

Implants are perfect for replacing several teeth, eliminating the need to reshape or grind down healthy adjacent teeth to serve as support for traditional crown & bridge therapy. The dental implants are placed in the bone below the gum tissue. Like single tooth replacement, there will be a healing phase after the implants are placed. After healing, the abutments are attached to the implants, and impressions are taken to make handmade, beautiful, custom crowns or bridges. In the final step, the custom teeth – crowns or bridges will be cemented onto the abutments. The teeth have been replaced without disturbing the teeth next to them, and bone loss has been significantly reduced.

 Chewing ability with dentures is not the same as natural teeth; many people find it difficult to eat some of their favorite foods. Dental implants make it possible to eat nuts, fruits and vegetables again without pain and irritation. Speaking clearly is also a problem for denture wearers. Pronouncing words with “L”,”Th” and “S”  words like “life”, “things”, and “seventy-seven” are more difficult  due to the palate being covered with acrylic. Mini Dental implants make it possible to get rid of the upper palate, to be able to speak clearly again easily. Confidence is lost when Dentures loosen or fall out while speaking, laughing or sneezing causing many to cover their mouths if they laugh or smile. Mini Dental implants give you confidence to go ahead and show your smile during any situation.
