Dental Implants - Fixed Solution For Missing Tooth
At The Smile Connect - Advanced Dentistry & Implant Centre, we specialize in dental implants as a superior solution for replacing missing teeth and restoring your smile's function and appearance. Dental implants are titanium posts surgically placed into the jawbone to serve as artificial tooth roots. They provide a strong foundation for replacement teeth that look, feel, and function like natural teeth.
What are Dental Implants?
Dental implants are small, biocompatible titanium posts that are surgically positioned into the jawbone beneath your gums. Once in place, they allow your dentist to mount replacement teeth onto them.
Types of Dental Implants
Depending on your specific needs, we offer different types of dental implants:
- Single Tooth Implants: Used to replace a single missing tooth without affecting adjacent teeth.
- Implant-Supported Bridges: Used to replace several missing teeth, supported by implants without the need for adjacent natural teeth.
- All-on-4 Implants: Four implants are placed strategically to support a full arch of teeth, providing a stable and cost-effective solution.
- Implant-Supported Dentures: Dentures supported by implants for enhanced stability and functionality, especially for patients missing all teeth in an arch.
Benefits of Dental Implants
- Natural Appearance: Implants look and feel like natural teeth, enhancing your smile's aesthetics.
- Improved Functionality: They restore your ability to chew, speak, and eat comfortably.
- Preserves Bone Structure: Implants stimulate the jawbone, preventing bone loss and maintaining facial contours.
- Long-Term Solution: With proper care, implants can last a lifetime, offering a durable and reliable tooth replacement option.
Aftercare and Maintenance
To ensure the longevity of your dental implants, follow these guidelines:
- Maintain Excellent Oral Hygiene: Brush and floss regularly around the implants to keep gums healthy and prevent plaque buildup.
- Regular Dental Visits: Schedule routine check-ups and cleanings to monitor the condition of your implants and overall oral health.
- Avoid Smoking: Smoking can weaken bone structure and increase the risk of implant failure.
- Avoid Chewing Hard Foods: Be cautious with hard or sticky foods that could damage your implants or restoration.
