TOOTH IMPLANT
Tooth loss is something no one looks forward to. If an individual loses one or more teeth in any unfortunate situation- due to a fall, accident, fight or others, a number of restorative options are available, one of which is dental implants or tooth implant for missing teeth or a broken tooth.
Dental implants are solid fixtures of titanium which are surgically screwed into jaw bone and are an anchor for a naturally-appearing false tooth or a set of false teeth. They are typically best placed in the front portion of the lower jaw. Implants are great for replacing missing teeth. It is important that one has enough bone in the area of the missing teeth for the implant to be attached to.Toth Implant is not only used to replace one tooth, but rather people missing most, if not all, of their teeth benefit greatly as well. Dental Implants are increasingly being used to replace certain types of bridges and removable partial dentures.
Ideal candidate for tooth implant is one who is missing one tooth or all of teeth, teeth implants may well be for him. So long as one has enough bone in the area of the missing tooth to facilitate the anchorage of the implants, this procedure can yield terrific results. If one doesn't have enough bone for this purpose, a bone graft may be necessary. If one has a small dental bridge or partial dentures (removable type) then the dental implants would be a welcome alternative. Teeth Implants are an alternative to a fixed bridge. The implant will last a lifetime, but the crown on top of it may last ten to fifteen years.
Procedure Description
The dental implant procedure is a surgical placement of the implant or implants in jaw bone which requires a three to six month healing period before the implant restoration to replace the missing tooth or missing teeth. During this healing time, the bone grows in and around the titanium implant creating a very strong support. Dental implants can be rejected in 2 % of cases and usually they are replaced with another implant of a slightly larger size. When missing one tooth, cosmetic dentist may use a Flipper to fill the space. A Flipper is a false tooth to temporarily take the place of a missing tooth before the permanent crown is placed on the implant. A Flipper can be attached via either a wire or a plastic piece that fits in the roof of the mouth. Flippers are meant to be a temporary solution while awaiting the permanent crown to be placed on your implant(s).
Types of dental Implants:
Root Form tooth Implant
This screw type implant is shaped like the root of a tooth. This is the most commonly used implant and is used where there is plenty of width and depth to the jawbone. If jawbone is too narrow or short for placement of the Root Form implants, bone grafting may be needed to allow for their placement.
Plate Form Teeth Implant
If jawbone is too narrow for bone grafting, a Plate Form implant is placed into your jawbone. The Plate Form implant is unique for this purpose as it has a flat and long shape for a better fit into a narrow jawbone.
Subperiosteal Dental Implants
If there's not enough bone width or height for the Root Form or Plate Form implants, the subperiosteal implant is recommended. The Subperiosteal implant is custom made to rest on top of the jawbone and under your gums like the Plate Form implant, but the Subperiosteal implant is placed through one of two special methods.
The first method of placement involves cosmetic dentist making an impression of the jawbone. The impression is used by a dental laboratory to make a custom-fit implant for the jaw. The second method of placement requires a CAT scan of jawbone. Through computer modeling techniques, a model of jawbone is made from the CAT information.
Advantages of dental implant:
As the life span increases, a permanent dental replacement like implants is increasingly important as one gets older. While dentures and removable bridges are usually loose and unstable, implants provide with a dental replacements that are both natural looking and very functional. Implants look much better, and feel better, than traditional removable bridges, and offer the same force for biting as bridges that are fixed in place. Implants will last for lifetime.
