Dental implants are unlike any other restoration. Other prosthetics attach to neighboring teeth or the surface of your gums. While many people’s oral needs are served by dental bridges and dentures, the prosthetics never fully replace the feeling and function of natural teeth. Only restoration that functions like a natural tooth are dental implants. The key to the stability of this tooth-replacement option is the titanium post that is placed in your jawbone near the location of your missing tooth root. The implant replaces the tooth root. This restorative treatment gives many health benefits. Roots of tooth promote bone growth and help prevent jawbone atrophy. If you have one or more missing teeth and have not sought dental implants, you are in danger of losing precious jawbone density. Over time, the loss of jawbone tissue can complicate your candidacy for receiving dental implants. If you recently lost a tooth or are about to undergo a tooth extraction, you should consider dental implant. Treatment Overview The dental implant treatment timeline can last anywhere from three to six months or longer, depending on your unique situation and how quickly your jawbone heals after implant placement. First, we will schedule oral surgery to place one or more dental implants. Then, you will require a few months to recover. During this time, the implant will fuse with the surrounding jawbone. |
