Dental Implants come in various shapes and sizes and are metal structures used to replace missing teeth in the oral cavity. Dr. Branemark, an Orthopedist from Sweden, was the first to introduce in the 1980’s a very predictable type of Implant. These Implants were shaped like the roots of teeth and were made of Titanium, a metal used successfully in orthopedic surgery. This type of Implant forms a close physical bond with bone in a process called “Osseointegration” . Numerous Researchers and Companies have developed dental implants patterned after Dr. Branemark’s original designs.
Benefits:
1. Are the most advanced tooth replacement system ever devised.
2. Help preserve the jawbone to prevent the appearance of premature
aging.
3. Look and function like natural teeth.
4. Are placed and restored in the Dr.’s office with minimal discomfort.
5. Improve comfort, appearance and speech.
6. Have a 95 % success rate.
7. Allow you to eat foods you love and talk, smile and laugh with confidence.
8. Represent a conservative treatment option – adjacent teeth
are left untouched.
9. Never develop decay.
10. Never require root canals.
11. Can provide great stability for a lower denture.
12. Can completely eliminate the need for a denture.
13. Can help people of any age.
14. Give patients a third set of teeth that are natural looking and
very long-lasting.
In summary, dental implants offer a superior method for tooth replacement.
Implants are predictable as well as highly successful, and improve the
quality of life with better chewing function and esthetics.
