SOME GENERAL FACTS ABOUT DENTAL IMPLANTS
What are Dental Implants?
A Dental Implant is an artificial substitute of dental roots. Implants can be of different shapes and sizes like screw, cylinder, lamina or a structure that is placed over the bone and under the gingiva. The teeth that are going to be replaced are bonded to the portion of the implant that extend beyond the gingival line. The type of Dental Implant to be placed depends on each specific case.
What do the Dental Implants do?
- Replace missing teeth.
- Support a complete denture, making it safer and more comfortable.
- Support a fixed bridge, avoiding two problems: There will be no need for a removable prosthesis, and no need to prepare neighboring teeth for crowns.
- An implant can replace a single tooth, without altering neighboring teeth.
- Stabilize teeth with mobility.
- Help mantain bone quality.
Could I benefit from a Dental Implant?
In almost every case patients can opt for Dental Implants.
How is the treatment done?
DDepending on the Dental Implant to be placed, surgical procedure is performed for placement,
Oral Rehabilitation will be done later. Surgical procedures vary according to each case and implants used.
All Dental Implants are built under the highest quality standards. That in combination with state of the art techniques and equipment, optimize the treatment plan.
