Dental Implants

A permanent, titanium-metal structure that attaches to the jawbone, serving as a foundation upon which to build natural-looking teeth.

Many patients have used implants as a root structure for porcelain front teeth, giving them a more youthful appearance, or for a precision-crafted, Lower Fixed Bridge and Hybrid Bridge that stay in place while chewing. Implants require minor surgery and very exacting techniques to ensure successful attachment to bone. They should be performed by dentists who have received additional training beyond dental school.

Dental Implants Questions and Answers I have some health problems that my current dentist says prevent the use of implants to replace my missing teeth.  Am I stuck getting dentures? Admittedly, there are a handful of diseases that interfere with the use of implants, particularly a type called “endosseous”.  This type is most often used to replace single teeth.  However, prosthodontists are specialists in implants, placing several types and working with different manufacturers' designs.  A conference with your health care providers, combined with a properly-selected implant and proper maintenance, may be all that's needed to keep you out of dentures. My family dentist doesn't do implants because she says they are problematic.  Is this true? When implants first became available 20 years ago, no one realized the importance of the surgical technique and failures were quite common.  Today, there is a 92% success rate.  I have done over 6000 implants with few problems.  I suspect that your dentist is reluctant to try them because the technique is tricky or she has tried a few and had problems.
