Minimally Invasive Dental Implants:
Restoring Your Smile
Tooth loss can affect both the look of your smile and your ability to eat and talk properly. Missing teeth can cause issues like difficulty chewing, shifting of remaining teeth, and changes to your facial structure.
Dental implants are a great solution, mimicking the feel and function of real teeth. The process involves placing titanium prosthetic roots into the jawbone to replace missing teeth. Advantages of Dental Implants:
- No Impact on Existing Teeth: Implants don’t affect your surrounding teeth.
- Prevents Shifting: They stop other teeth from moving into the gap left by a missing tooth.
- Durability: With proper care, implants are strong, stable, and long-lasting.
The process begins with a thorough consultation and examination, including an oral exam and necessary X-rays, 3D scans, or CT scans. During the procedure, dental implants are typically placed under local anesthesia, with additional sedation options available if needed. In some cases, bone grafting may be required to address any deficiencies in the jawbone.
