As we age we experience
an array of changes within our body and overall health. Among these changes are
tooth loss, most commonly caused by tooth decay, gum disease and excessive wear
and tear. Missing teeth can add years to a person's appearance, making it
difficult for an individual to smile without feeling self-conscious. Not to
mention that performing normal day-to-day activities, like eating and talking,
become both challenging and frustrating.
THEN WHAT TO
DO?
Then what we
need to go for replacements or prosthetic rehabilitations
Why Replace Missing Teeth?
Missing teeth have more
far-reaching effects than just an older appearance and lack of confidence. As
soon as a tooth is lost, the supporting bone begins to deteriorate.
Additionally, gaps in your teeth can affect the surrounding teeth, causing them
to shift into the gaps and influencing how the jaw closes. And since food can
easily become trapped in these spaces, the risk of tooth decay and gum disease
increases.
Its best to replace a
tooth as soon as its lost as this will prevent the progression of bone loss,
reduce the shifting of your surrounding teeth and avoid additional decay.
Delaying tooth restoration for an extended period time will only limit your
possibilities for successful restoration, make chewing foods more difficult and
lead to more serious health problems.
NOW WHAT
COULD BE DONE?
When we need to replace
one tooth or several missing teeth, we want a solution that will restore your
smile as close to your natural teeth as possible. Dental implants from our
experienced implant dentist is the only dental treatment available that replaces
the entire missing tooth while preserving the bone and restoring normal
functions.
WHAT IS THIS
IMPLANT?
Used to replace one
tooth or multiple teeth, dental implants are artificial tooth roots that are
securely affixed into your jaw to hold a replacement tooth. They are designed
to replicate your natural teeth while restoring function and preventing further
decay, dental diseases and bone loss.
BENEFITS OF
DENTAL IMPLANTS
Dental implants are comfortable,
long-lasting and secure, making this restoration treatment a practical choice
for patients no longer wanting to wear removable dentures. Unlike traditional,
dentures, dental implants offer a fixed permanent solution to missing teeth.
With implants, there is no fear of slipping or falling out, no messy adhesives,
no discomfort and no difficulty eating or talking.

If you, like millions
of other adults, have lost one or more teeth, you are probably all too familiar
with the unpleasant consequences. The benefits of dental implants far outweigh
any other tooth restoration procedure. Not everyone is a candidate for dental
implants, however, and in some cases, dentures will be the most suitable
treatment. Schedule an appointment with your dentist and find out if implants
are a viable solution for restoring your smile for a lifetime.
