Dental implants are the most modern way to replace missing teeth and have been widely used for decades. Many people have benefitted from this treatment worldwide, discovering they can eat, talk, smile confidently, and enjoy life. What are Dental Implants? Usually, dental implants have three components: Implant screw Abutment Final restoration, such as a single implant crown Multiple implants can support fixed bridges or removable implant dentures, including immediate implant placement for treatments like All-on-FourTM. Dental implants are designed to restore teeth artificially, as the small post or screw is inserted surgically into the jawbone, where it closely replicates a real tooth root. The implant screw is specially treated to encourage integration with the jawbone surrounding it. Over several months, new bone cells grow on and around the implant, gradually fusing it in place during a process called osseointegration. It typically takes between three and six months for osseointegration to occur fully. When osseointegration is complete, the second implant component, the abutment, is attached to the implant screw. The abutment protrudes above the gum line, providing strong, stable support for the implant restoration. What Are the Advantages of Dental Implant Treatment? Replacing your teeth with dental implants has many advantages, including: Providing teeth that look and feel as if they have always been your own and are fully functional. Implant teeth are carefully designed to be aesthetically pleasing, restoring your smile and giving excellent support to your facial muscles in your cheeks and lips, preserving and protecting your facial structure. They are strong enough to enable you to eat virtually anything you please, restoring your biting and chewing strength. Dental implant treatment is a long-term solution for tooth loss, and with the correct care, you should enjoy the benefits for many years, or for life. With the proper planning, placement, and after-care, dental implants have a success rate of 95% or higher.
