Dental implants are positioned beneath your gum line as replacement tooth or a bridge. It is a solution recommend when you have a tooth missing. Healthy gums and adequate bone density are necessary to maintain good dental health and dental implants has a key role in maintaining them. Whether your tooth is infected, broken or missing, those of at College Plaza Dental ensure that you have access to a world-class dental treatment, and this includes dental implants.
Our dentists would recommend a dental implant for the following reasons:
Tooth supported dental bridges often grind other teeth either on one side or both sides of the missing tooth, thus damaging other healthy teeth. This is not the case with dental implants. Dental implants are embedded into the jaw bone without displacing nearby teeth.
Tooth supported dental bridges last for about 7-10 years. But dental implants last for a lifetime. Thus, they are a long term and cost-effective solution.
Ordinary dentures can bring slight changes to your face shape and smile as they cause loss and deterioration of some of your jawbone. They can also loosen out or fall while speaking and eating. Dental implants on the other hand stimulate bone growth and prevent bone loss thus retaining natural face shape and smile.
For some people, ordinary dentures and bridges may be uncomfortable and painful, but dental implants, on the other hand, are quite comfortable and do not tend to cause pain and discomfort.
