Did you know that when you lose a tooth, up to 20 percent of adjacent teeth will be lost in the next 4 to 8 years if you don’t replace that tooth? Missing teeth not only impact your appearance, but also your dental health. Remaining teeth can shift, which may create alignment issues. Bone degeneration may also occur.
Dental implants can rejuvenate the health and beauty of your smile. Constructed from biodegradable titanium, the implants are surgically positioned into your jaw bone, creating an artificial root. After your mouth heals and the bone fuses with the implants, usually in three to six months, your dentist will place a permanent crown on each implant. With implants, you can say good bye to the messy adhesives and embarrassing slippage associated with dentures.
Before beginning the implant process, your dentist will perform a complete evaluation of your mouth to make sure you are a good candidate for dental implants. For successful implant therapy, you need to be in decent overall health, have good oral care habits, and have sufficient bone structure to support the implants. In some cases, your dentist or oral surgeon may recommend bone or tissue grafts to prepare for implant placement.
