Dental implants are great for people who are missing a tooth or more, as they look, feel and act like natural ones. The technology to make them in different shades also makes it possible to match them to your shade of natural teeth. To enable proper support for dental implants, it is vital that your jawbone and gums are in a healthy condition. A dentist after proper evaluation of your dental health would be able to evaluate if you are the right candidate for dental implants. Dental implant procedures are performed under anesthesia and a person undergoes minimal pain and discomfort. Antibiotics and pain killers are usually prescribed after the procedure to avoid the risk of any infection and pain. What exactly is an implant? An implant looks like a screw and is surgically placed in your jawbone. For the next few months, bonding between the bone and the implant take place to form a base or anchor for the artificial tooth. There are different types of dental implants like one stage or two stage and your dentist would advise you which one is more suitable for you.

The biggest advantage of dental implants is that they are unlike dentures which could have a problem of suddenly coming out of your mouth while laughing or talking. Since they function and are strong enough like natural teeth, dental implants allow you to chew better, talk normally and give you greater confidence than other dental treatments. They are a long term solution which help retain the natural shape of your smile and face. But most importantly they look more natural than dentures. Single tooth implants easily replace a single missing tooth and eliminates the need to reduce or cut down adjacent teeth unlike dental treatments like bridges. Single tooth implants are independent of other adjacent teeth and allows the adjacent teeth of the missing tooth to function normally. You can easily floss your teeth in that area as a single tooth implant is just like your natural tooth. Multiple tooth implants can help replace two or more missing teeth, and they are either done by placing them side by side or at each end of the area of the missing teeth and covered by a crown or bridge on top. Multiple teeth implants also make flossing a normal part of your dental routine. Both single and multiple teeth implants are now a standard for missing tooth or teeth problems and provide complete support like natural tooth or teeth for daily activities like speech, laughter and eating.
