Dental
implants are stronger and more durable than their restorative counterparts such
as bridges, partials and dentures. And
from an esthetic standpoint, they look and feel more natural, some of which is
due to the progress made in their biocompatible development. Implants
offer the patient a permanent solution to tooth and continued bone loss.
Additionally, implants may be used in conjunction with other restorative procedures
for maximum effectiveness in that a single implant may serve to support a
dental crown replacing a single missing tooth. Implants can also be used to
support a dental bridge for the replacement of multiple missing teeth, and can
be used with complete dentures, both standard and mini implants to increase
stability and preserve bone structure.
Procedural
advancements, including the development of the above mentioned "mini"
implants, mean that a larger population than ever before are finding themselves
candidates for dental implants. While
application and candidacy for implantation varies on a case by case basis,
meaning that your dentist needs to determine the viability of implants as it
applies to your actual bone structure. Keep in mind, a general dentist may perform
the crown and bridge placement that is associated with implant restorations, prosthodontists
are the ADA sanctioned specialists
who have received post-doctorate training are most often your best bet for the
successful completion of this type of technique sensitive procedure. If we can ever be of help please don’t
