Dental Implants: What Are They and How Do They Work?
Dental implants are marvels of restorative dentistry and the consensus gold standard among long-term tooth loss solutions. These tiny titanium pegs are surgically implanted into a patient’s jawbone after tooth loss to replace the function of natural dental roots.
During implant placement, a dentist or oral surgeon precisely places an implant into the “socket” in the jawbone vacated by missing teeth. Once (over several months) an implant is permanently fused with the bone via "osseointegration,” it serves as a stable and natural-feeling foundation for a permanent dental restoration — typically a porcelain crown — that restores smile aesthetics and bite functionality.
Among the most significant myriad benefits of dental implants are:
- Jawbone preservation — Implants provide vital stimulation to the jawbone, helping prevent a loss of bone density (and natural facial structure) that often accompanies tooth loss
- Dental support — Implants prevent surrounding teeth from overcrowding or shifting out of alignment.
- Bite restoration — Implants fully restore natural bite feel and function, allowing full functionality without dietary restrictions.
- Longevity — With proper maintenance and oral hygiene, dental implants can last multiple decades — if not forever!
Tailored Care with Custom Dentistry
Custom dentistry provides personalized care designed to meet unique oral health and aesthetic needs. From designing perfectly fitted crowns to creating bespoke veneers, custom dentistry ensures every treatment is tailored for comfort, function, and beauty. With advanced technology like digital imaging and precision crafting, custom dentistry delivers exceptional results that blend seamlessly with your natural teeth, fully restoring your healthy and confident smile.
