Improve Your Dental Health & Confidence With Dental Implants
Have you experienced a bad fall that knocked your teeth out? Have you wondered if your smile looks different due to the missing tooth? Then a dental implant in Byford is the best solution for you! You see, your teeth are strong, but when your adult teeth decay or fall out for some reason, replacing them with natural-looking tooth implants is your best bet. Here are the details that you should know before taking your plunge.
Implants provide the best support to artificial teeth because they fuse well with your jawbone. They do not slip or shift in your mouth, especially when eating, speaking, coughing, or sneezing. You don’t have to worry about any soreness, ridges, or gagging in the mouth. An added advantage is that no other teeth need grounding to keep the implant in place.

What are Dental Implants? And Why Is It Worth Getting One?
A dental implant is a technique to replace a broken or damaged tooth with a replica tooth. Any part of the teeth still in the gums is removed, and a metal screw post is implanted into the gums. The implant is made of titanium because it acts as a strong foundation for the tooth. A replica tooth called the ‘crown’ is placed on the abutment of the screw. The dentists may even graft the bone under it.
Different Types of Dental Implants
The two types of implants are:
- Endosteal implants need to be surgically implanted into the jawbone. When the gum tissues heal, the following surgery connects the titanium post to the original implant, after which the crown is carefully fixed on the connector of the screw; and
- Subperiosteal implants require only one procedure. The metal frame fitted on the jawbone is close to the gum tissues. As and when the gums heal, the frame gets fixed to the jawbone. Once the post protrudes out of the gum, the dental surgeon mounts the crown.
