Dental
implants are stronger and more durable than their restorative counterparts: bridges,
partials and dentures. And from an
esthetic standpoint, dental implants
look and feel more natural, a result 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 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, while a general
dentist may perform the crown and bridge placement that is associated with
implant restorations, prosthodontists,
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.

ever be of help please don’t hesitate to call or comment so we can answer your
