Dental Implants are the most modern, cost effective, stable,
long lasting and the best way to replace missing tooth or teeth. Normally, it
will serve its owner for life. It is made of a small titanium screw that serves
as the replacement for the root portion of a missing natural tooth.
Due to its biocompatible nature it fuses with the bone and becomes a good anchor for the replacement tooth, without the root structure of a natural tooth present, the jawbone can shrink. This shrinkage will make your face look older than it is. With traditional dental bridges, teeth adjacent to missing teeth are normally ground down to be used as anchors for a dental bridge. With dental implants there is no need to modify healthy teeth.
With more than three decades of clinical experience and over a million patients treated, statistics confirm a success rate of nearly 95 percent. Anyone who is missing one or more teeth due to injury, disease or tooth decay may be a candidate for dental implants. The determining factor is the amount of available bone. If you’re healthy enough to have a tooth extracted, you’re probably healthy enough to receive dental implants.
Compared to the conventional methods of implant placement in which the treatment takes at least 3 to 6 months to finish, we have state-of-the-art guided surgical techniques which allow you to have the dental implant placed in a single. The major advantage of the guided surgical technique is the minimal amount of manipulation of the soft tissue due to keyhole surgery. This significantly reduces the healing time and the discomfort normally associated with traditional dental implant surgical techniques. It is normal to have some bruising and swelling in the gum and soft tissues. But usually the discomfort, if any, is treated with an ordinary painkiller. You should expect to be able to work the next day.
Patients who have medical or other conditions that may interfere with the healing process of either their bones or soft tissues (e.g., connective tissue disorders, steroid therapy, bone infections, cigarette smoking) must carefully evaluate, with their dentists, the potential risks and benefits of using dental implants.
