Dental Implants are an exciting and effective way to replace missing teeth. One dental implant can be used to restore a single lost or congenitally missing tooth, or several implants can be used to help with any combination of fixed bridges and removable or fixed dentures. Dental implants are the most advanced tooth replacement system available today, and their placement prevents bone and gum tissue loss that often takes place after tooth loss. This bone and tissue loss can give a \u201csunken-in\u201d look (or older appearance). Placing an implant can also preserve the adjacent teeth by removing the need to cut the adjacent teeth down for a bridge or crown placement. Plus, dental implants will never develop decay or need a root canal. Although implants take time, the results are the closest thing dentistry has to giving patients back their natural teeth. The appearance and function of implants has the ability to improve self-confidence and overall quality of life.<\/p>\n

Traditional Implants (Missing Teeth)<\/h2>\n

In cases where the tooth or teeth are already missing, implants can be placed to restore single or multiple sites with fixed bridges or removable dentures. Traditionally, the implant is left to heal for at least 2-6 months prior to permanent restoration, in order to allow the bone to bond with the implant to ensure the long-term stability of the implant.<\/p>\n

Single Tooth Implants<\/h3>\n

In cases where patients are missing a single tooth, a dental implant combined with a crown is the most natural looking way to replace both the lost tooth and its root. The implant serves as an artificial root, keeping the bone intact by preventing bone and gum loss, as well as preserving the adjacent teeth from being cut down for a bridge. Bridges can be more difficult to clean and therefore can be more prone to decay (caries).<\/p>\n\n\t\t
