Dental implants are a good way to replace missing teeth and also offer a long lasting solution to removable partial or complete dentures. Dental implants offer excellent support and stability for thesedental appliances.
Dental implants are artificial roots and artifical teeth (mostly titanium) that are surgically fixes into the upper or lower jaw bone by a dentist, or an oral surgeon, or a Periodontist - a specialist of the gums and adjacent bone. The teeththat are attached to implants are very natural looking and often add to or repair a patient's smile!
Dental implants are very strong, tough, and durable and will endure fora number of years, but from time to time, they will need to be re-tightened or replaced as a resust of normal wear.
Benefits of dental implants:
Allows you to replace one or more missing teeth without affecting adjacent teeth.
Resolve joint pain or bite problems caused by teeth shifting into missing tooth space.
Dental Implants are only one of many forms of cosmetic dentistry. Cosmetic dental centers also offer mini-implants. Mini-implants are tiny screws that fit through the bottom of dentures and fix them securly to the jaw bone. They stop the dentures from wobbling and keep them looking like natural teeth.
Broken teeth can regain their natural beauty with porcelain crowns, porcelain caps and porcelain veneers. And, the newest addition to the cosmetic dentistry armementum is the snap on smile. The custom fitted piece slips over the client's remaining teeth and immediately imparts a lustrous toothy smile.
