Dental Implants

Patients will need to start to get familiar with dental implants as a way to restore one missing tooth, several missing teeth, or even the whole arch.  When the condition is right, dental implants is a great way to replace missing teeth or it can be used to secure dentures and partials in place tightly.

NO NEED FOR BRIDGE! Dental bridge is historically most common and predictable way to replace missing teeth, however, it is hard to maintain as it is hard to floss and the build ups under the bridge can produce odor and more importantly inflammation of the gums and decay of the abutment teeth that is  why dental bridge may need to be replaced every 5 to 10 years.  Dental implants essentially supports its own tooth with the titanium screw into the jaw bone without filing down the neighboring teeth.  This way the tooth is fully restored with its own individually root and so flossing can be done with the conventional way.

DENTURES PATIENTS: Many patients complain of pain and hard to eat with dentures because the dentures are loose and tend to fall off when they bite, dental implants can help to stabilize the dentures (overdentures) or even transform the dentures into something is fixed in the jaw bone and that even feels like your own teeth.  These include hybrids and even complete roundhouse bridge that can function 100 percent like natural teeth do.
