Understanding the benefits of dental implants

Implants are essentially posts made of titanium metal that the dentist will place during oral surgery into the bone of the jaw. The post helps in stimulating the natural growth of bone around it through a process known as osseointegration. This is what gives the dental implant the strength and stability it needs to act as a tooth replacement solution. The abutment of the dental implant can then be restored using a full dental crown to replace a single tooth. The crown is custom-made in a dental laboratory to match the patient’s existing teeth in shape, size, and color to ensure the final restoration is natural-looking as well as functional.

How many teeth can a dental implant replace?

In most situations, a patient will use a dental implant to replace a single tooth within the smile. However, dental implants can also be used in the replacement of several teeth. For example, a dental implant can be placed into the jaw to act as an anchor for one or both ends of a dental bridge, which replaces several teeth in a row. Additionally, patients may use dental implants along with full dentures. Several implants are placed along the dental arch and used to stabilize a full denture, which replaces all the teeth in the dental arch.
