How do dental implants feel like natural teeth?

download (73) If you have experienced significant tooth decay or damage to a tooth, you may be left behind with a gap in your smile after having a tooth lost or extracted. Patients in the area of Golden, CO who are in a situation where tooth replacement is needed will want to book an appointment with a dentist to learn about the remedies available to them. For many, a dental implant will be the best solution. Dental implants are titanium posts that look and function like natural teeth, making them one of the most popular options for patients considering tooth replacement.

How do dental implants work?

The dental implant works by acting as a replacement for the natural tooth root. This small, titanium post is placed during an oral surgery procedure directly into the bone of the jaw. Then, the portion above the gumline, called the abutment, is covered with a restoration. The number of teeth being replaced with the dental implant will decide the restoration. It may be a dental crown, a bridge, or a full denture that is customized to act as an implant-retained alternative.

Am I a candidate for dental implants?

Before getting the dental implants placed into the mouth, patients need to be assessed by a dental provider to determine if they can use dental implants for their smile. Dental implants require enough bone and overall oral health for successful placement. The dentist at Golden Dental Solutions will evaluate the health of the jaw, mouth, and gum tissues to ensure patients are proper candidates. Without this, patients may experience failure of the dental implant placement or experience loss of longevity in the future. It is vital that patients take good care of their smile to ensure their implants last a lifetime, as expected.
