Dental Implants

Dental implants are a cutting-edge solution for replacing missing teeth and restoring both function and aesthetics. These titanium posts are surgically placed into the jawbone, serving as sturdy foundations for artificial teeth, crowns, or dentures. As the bone naturally fuses with the implant through a process called osseointegration, dental implants provide a secure and long-lasting anchor for replacement teeth. With their natural appearance and ability to mimic the feel of real teeth, dental implants offer a transformative solution, improving both oral health and the quality of life for individuals with missing teeth.

Dental Implants Might Not Be Suitable For You If You Have the Following:

Insufficient Bone Density:

  • Implants require a solid foundation in the jawbone.

  • Bone grafting may be needed for those with low bone density.

Medical Conditions:

  • Uncontrolled diabetes, autoimmune disorders, and bleeding disorders.

  • Such conditions can impact the healing process and success of implants.

Smoking:

  • Nicotine can affect blood flow and hinder the healing of implants.

  • Quitting or reducing smoking is advised for implant success.

Gum Disease (Periodontitis):

  • Advanced gum disease compromises implant stability.

  • Treatment for gum disease is necessary before considering implants.

Pregnancy:

  • Pregnancy is a contraindication for elective dental procedures.

  • Implant placement should be postponed until after childbirth and breastfeeding.

Certain Medications:

  • Bisphosphonates for osteoporosis can impact bone metabolism.

  • Patients on such medications should discuss their situation with their healthcare provider.

Uncontrolled Bruxism (Teeth Grinding):

  • Excessive teeth grinding can stress implants, leading to failure.

  • Bruxism management is essential before implant placement.

Poor Oral Hygiene Habits:

  • Good oral hygiene is crucial for implant success.

  • Individuals with a history of poor oral care may face higher risks.
