Missing teeth can affect your speech, make chewing difficult, contribute to bone loss, and allow your remaining teeth to shift out of alignment. Dental implants (endosseous implants) have grown in popularity in recent years for the simple reason that they are a superior tooth replacement method to practically all others. With a porcelain crown, they look and function so natural that you may forget which teeth have been replaced. Not everyone is a good candidate for dental implants, so call our dental center to determine if you are.
The loss of a tooth, whether due to an accident, disease or extraction, increases the risk of additional dental problems. You may have discomfort, movement of your other teeth, or even a sunken facial appearance depending on the location of the lost tooth. Changes to your face occur as a result of the loss of not only the tooth but also the bone in your jaw. The tooth’s root normally stimulates the jawbone to continue regenerating; without it, your jaw stops renewing and begins to degrade. Dental implants are a long-lasting tooth replacement. Implant-supported dentistry brings you as close to growing new teeth as possible. Implants look and feel like natural teeth because they are expertly placed in the same bone that originally supported your tooth roots. They are securely anchored in your bone, and the porcelain crown creates a lifelike result.
What Are the Different Types of Dental Implants?
Restorative dentistry at Stamford Dental Arts takes a thoroughly modern approach. Digital x-rays, as well as 3D mapping and modeling, provide the technology required to determine whether you are a good candidate for dental implants. Your dentists may recommend one of two types of implants depending on the number of teeth you’re missing:
- Single-tooth implant. If you are missing only one tooth, your implant dentist may recommend a single tooth implant after assessing your bone health and density. This implant is comprised of one surgically implanted post and an attached crown.
- Denture implants. Missing multiple teeth doesn’t have to mean using an uncomfortable conventional bridge or denture appliance. Two or more posts can be implanted by your dental implant expert to hold a mounted bridge or plate. This method keeps the adjacent teeth healthy and unharmed. Denture implants can be either permanent or removable.
