What are Implants?
Implants can be used to replace a single tooth or multiple teeth. They can also replace all of your teeth, including all-on-four treatment. Implants are also being used to stabilize dentures.
Single Implants involve replacing your missing tooth with not only a visible dental crown “tooth“, but an metal alloy “root‘ underneath the crown. The “root” implant fuses to the jawbone, creating a strong bond like your natural root, then the crown “tooth” which is a strong ceramic material that looks like a natural tooth. Implant restorations are becoming the standard for today.
Traditionally, when you lost a tooth a dentist would have recommended a bridge or a removable partial denture. Both bridges and removable partial dentures still have their place in today’s dentistry, but the implant has many more advantages. They do not require a special cleaning tool to get under them like bridges, nor do they come in and out of your mouth limiting some food options. They are also a solid bond so they do not effect speech as removable partials can. We would love for you to come into the Roswell dentist office for a consultation and see one of our dentists to determine if you are a candidate for an implant.
Top 6 Implant Advantages:
1. Longevity – the average implant can last 25 years and with good oral hygiene even longer! (Compared to crowns and bridges which have an average lifespan of 10 years. )
2. Durability – the ceramic crown is very durable and super strong, similar to a real tooth.
3. Natural look – An implant looks like and responds similar to a natural tooth. When you are not needing clasps to hold your partials in place the implant gives you a much more natural look.
4. Permanent – The implant restoration is not removable which is an advantage for anyone who has lost a removable appliance. This contributes to a more confident smile and ability to talk and chew.
5. Easy to Clean – Because an implant is similar to a natural tooth, the ability to brush and floss makes this a superb choice.
6. Preservation – An implant does not need to involve the adjacent tooth structure and bone because it is a less invasive procedure to the surrounding teeth. Also, an implant helps to prevent bone loss.
