Dental Implants: A Permanent Solution for Missing Teeth
What Are Dental Implants?
Dental implants are artificial tooth roots made of titanium, surgically placed into the jawbone to support a replacement tooth or bridge.
Why Choose Implants?
-
Long-lasting: With proper care, implants can last a lifetime.
-
Natural Look & Feel: They blend seamlessly with your natural teeth.
-
Prevents Bone Loss: Helps maintain jawbone structure after tooth loss.
How Is the Procedure Done?
1. Consultation & Planning: X-rays and scans to assess bone density.
2. Implant Placement: A titanium post is surgically placed in the jawbone.
3. Healing Period: The implant integrates with the bone (3-6 months).
4. Crown Placement: A custom-made tooth is fixed onto the implant.
Who Can Get Dental Implants?
Ideal candidates should have healthy gums, sufficient bone density, and good overall oral health. Smokers and individuals with uncontrolled diabetes may need additional evaluations before the procedure.
