Implants – a permanent solution for missing teeth

Dental implants are fixed in people who have lost a tooth or teeth due to tooth decay or injury.  Dentists perform a dental implant procedure by inserting an artificial tooth root deep into the jaw to replace a broken tooth or bridge.

A dental implant procedure is conducted on patients with an overall good oral hygiene, because for the procedure to be successful, the bones need to be firm enough to support the implant. The advantage of implants  is that  you can eat any kind of food, whereas  dentures on the other hand you can binge on only soft or mashed foods.

Benefits of dental implant:

1.           It improves appearance: 

A dental implant is like a new set of teeth and it provides a feel good factor to people who wear them. Since it is inserted deep into the gums and merges with the bone it becomes a permanent structure.

2.           The process of eating is easier with dental implant: 

With dentures, it is kind of uncomfortable to chew food. Dental implants are designed in a way that it becomes a new set of teeth, and the whole eating and chewing process is comfortable. It also does not cause pain or discomfort.

3.           It improves oral health:

Dental implants are a new set of teeth and not dental bridges to replace a lost or worn out tooth.    It means there is sufficient space around each tooth, and it therefore improves oral health.

4.           It is long lasting:

Dental Implants are durable and last for many years.
