About Dental Implants
A dental implant is a metal post that is surgically placed into the jawbone as a synthetic tooth root. Once the post has been implanted, a replacement tooth is attached to the post. The tooth can be fixed permanently or made to be removable, with permanent replacements feeling more natural and stable.
Dental implants are customized for each person to closely resemble the patient’s natural teeth.
Advantages of Dental Implants Over Bridges and Dentures
Compared to dentures and bridges, dental implants are more stable. Because dental implants are attached to the jaw bone, they offer stability that allows the wearer to eat without difficulty. They look, feel, and act like natural teeth and they can last a lifetime without the need for further replacement.
Caring for Dental Implants
Dental implants should be treated like natural teeth with regular brushing, flossing, and dental checkups. To get the longest use out of your dental implants, you should care for them daily.
