If you have lost one or more of your teeth or are currently wearing Dentures, Dental Implants may be the solution for you.
The loss of a tooth or the inability for our teeth to perform their natural functions, can severely affect our eating patterns, self-confidence and appearance. Missing teeth and gaps in your mouth can distract from an otherwise beautiful smile. Dental Implants offer a permanent solution to this problem; actually mimicking your natural teeth and providing a fully functional replacement for missing teeth.
Generally made from Titanium, Dental Implants are the man-made replacement for the root of a tooth. Dental Implants take on the role of an anchor within the mouth and are surgically inserted into the jawbone. As the mouth heals, approximately two to six months after surgery; the bone and Implant begin to fuse together. Small posts are then attached to the Implants, which are used to anchor Crowns, Bridges or Dentures.
Replacing your missing teeth will not only benefit your facial appearance but also your oral and general well-being. Once a missing tooth is replaced you will be able to eat and speak as you did previously — things that people often take for granted until their natural teeth are lost. |
