Cosmetic Periodontal Surgery

A dental implant is a small metal post that is inserted into the jaw bone to provide a new root, or foundation, for some form of replacement tooth like a crown or implant-supported denture. It is a reliable way of replacing a missing tooth that usually lasts a lifetime and since it fuses with the jawbone over time, it does not come loose the way a denture can, and it looks and feels more natural. It provides stability and shape for the jawbone and also does not damage or jeopardize the position of other healthy teeth. Some arrangements of dental implants can even replace a whole upper or lower mouthful of missing teeth, making speech and chewing easy and natural once again. Dental implants are the modern way to replace missing teeth and are a convenient and effective option for nearly anyone.

Who Can Get Dental Implants?

If you have missing teeth or badly decayed teeth that need to be extracted and replaced, you may be a candidate for one or more dental implants. Nearly anyone can get a dental implant, with only a very few exceptions. Children who are still growing are not candidates for dental implants because the shape of the bone structure of their jaw will change until they have grown. However, nearly anyone else can be a candidate for the procedure. Even when there is bone loss from severe gum disease, bone grafting techniques can be used to prepare a site for a dental implant. Those who have chronic medical conditions like diabetes or hypertension can also still be good candidates for dental implants as long as their medical conditions are being effectively managed.
