What is Dental Implant Restoration?
A dental implant is a procedure that involves placing an implant post into the jawbone to replace a lost tooth root. Then, a porcelain crown is placed on top of the implant to replace the missing tooth.
Advantages of Implant Restoration at Raya Dental Clinic
Implant restoration is the only method that can prevent bone loss. With dental implants, the artificial roots are directly linked to the strong jawbone, allowing the implant teeth to withstand the same or better chewing force than natural teeth. In addition, implant teeth have an extremely long service life due to the even distribution of chewing force, and the connection of the implant to the bone becomes more durable over time. With proper care, dental implants can last a lifetime.
Dental implants are recommended in the following cases:
- Total tooth loss: Dental implants are the most effective method of replacing teeth in patients who have completely lost their teeth.
- Loss of one or more teeth: Dental implants can be used to replace missing teeth without affecting other teeth.
- Severely damaged teeth: In cases where a patient’s teeth are severely damaged and cannot be restored by other treatments, dental implants are a good alternative.
- Jawbone deterioration: Dental implants can be used to reconstruct the jawbone and keep the jaw structure stable in patients with jawbone deterioration due to tooth loss.
- Inability to use conventional dentures: In some cases, patients may not be able to use conventional dentures due to difficulty in holding or tolerating them, and dental implants may be a better alternative.
Patients should discuss with their dentist whether dental implants are the right option for them before deciding to undergo the procedure.
