Tooth loss—caused by injury, decay, or gum disease—can impact more than your appearance. It can compromise your ability to chew, speak, and even your self-confidence. The good news is that a wide variety of options are available for tooth replacement in modern dentistry. They include dental implants, a highly successful, durable, and natural-feeling alternative.
Here at Crown and Roots Dental Clinic, we are aware that restoring esthetics and function is important. In this article, we walk you through a step-by-step guide to dental implants and how they compare to other alternatives for missing tooth replacement so that you can make an informed choice for your oral health.
Before you think about replacement alternatives, you should be aware of why missing teeth need to be replaced:-
Not only is tooth loss a matter of looks—it can lead to future health problems if left alone.
A bridge replaces missing teeth by using crowns and pontics (fakes) to close the gaps left by one or more missing teeth. Grinding down nearby and healthy teeth is necessary with bridges, which can be detrimental to long-term oral health even though they take less time to place and cost less than implants.
Dentures are removable oral prosthetic devices that can replace a few or all teeth. They’re affordable and non-surgical, but:-
Dental implants are permanent solutions for tooth loss. They consist of:-
Implants offer the most stability, longevity, and functionality.
Dental implants replicate the root structure of a natural tooth, holding a permanent or removable replacement tooth. The implant is securely implanted in your body by osseointegrating with your jawbone.
It not only holds your new tooth, but bone growth is also stimulated, which prevents the sinking face and shrinking jawbone.
Crown and Roots Dental Clinic offers various implant options according to your requirements:-
Used when a single tooth is missing. One implant supports one crown.
Used for replacing multiple missing teeth. Instead of having separate implants under each tooth, a bridge is supported by multiple implants.
This is for patients with no upper or lower jaw teeth. Only four to six implants are needed to support an entire arch of teeth.
They are thinner in diameter and are used where there is not enough bone to hold standard implants. They can also be used with less invasive surgery.
You may be a good candidate if you:-
For those lacking adequate bone, bone grafting procedures can prepare the jaw for successful implant placement.
Here’s what you can expect if you choose dental implants at Crown and Roots Dental Clinic:-
We review your medical and dental history and X-ray or 3D scan to determine if you are a candidate.
A titanium implant is placed in the jawbone during a surgical procedure. The site is allowed to heal for 3–6 months to facilitate osseointegration.
After healing, a tiny connector (abutment) is placed on the implant to hold the crown.
A specially crafted crown is fitted over the abutment to complete your new tooth.
The entire process is painless due to modern anaesthesia and is performed under strict sterilization conditions.
Taking care of your implants is the same as taking care of natural teeth:-
Implants will take care of you for decades if you look after them.
Dental implants cost more initially than dentures or bridges. Still, they are of more excellent value in the long term because they are more durable and need less upkeep.
Think of implants as a worthwhile investment in your oral health, self-esteem, and way of life that will pay off.
