Dental
Implants
Dental implants
are an integral part of today's dentistry. The procedure requires
attention to details and specialized training.
Advanced technology
and improved procedures now make us confident that we can get excellent
long-term results. Many research studies have shown that modern
implants, when carefully placed and restored, may last a lifetime.
Today dental
implants are made of titanium which has been used successfully for
over 30 years as orthopedic knees and hip replacements.
There are two
main types of dental implants, one is placed above the bone,
the other is placed in the bone. The most common one is placed
in the bone.. The bone and implant will grow together, "Osseointegration".
The implant is the new base for the new crown, bridge or denture.
Dental implants are the best next to your own teeth.
How can
Implants be used?
Implants can
be used to replace dentures, bridges or missing individual teeth.
They can be used as anchors to help move and straighten other teeth
with orthodontics. Dental implants are quite versatile and helpful
in many treatment conditions.
