Implants

Dental Implants have increased treatment possibilities for many patients. Dental Implants rely on bone for support and are substitutes for natural tooth roots. There are varying types of implants that are available, but basically they are a device, or fixture, that is surgically placed in the jaw bone to replace one or several lost roots of teeth. The actual tooth or teeth that fit on top of the implant(s) are referred to as the prosthesis. People with adequate bone level and density who are not prone to infection and can maintain the best oral hygiene would be good candidates for dental implants. There are two phases to the implant procedure, including a surgical phase and a prosthetic phase. The surgical phase includes getting the implant into the bone and getting it ready for the prosthetic phase. After the implant is placed into the jaw bone, a process called "osseointegration" allows the bone to grow and tighten around it. This process takes a few months, but after the implant has integrated with the bone successfully, the next phase can begin. The prosthetic phase includes the placement of the final restoration, a single crown, bridge, or denture. If you're missing one or more of your natural teeth, no matter what age you are, dental implants may be your best solution.
