Dental Implants - Coast Dental

Written by: Dr. Nijam February 10, 2020 Do you have any missing teeth? If you have one or more missing teeth, it will not only affect your appearance but could also affect other healthy teeth as a result of the biting forces being spread over a lesser number of teeth. This can lead to cracking or fracture of other teeth resulting in further tooth loss. When gaps are present from tooth loss, shifting of the surrounding teeth can also occur. There are three main teeth replacement options. 1) Dental Implants, Bridges or Dentures. What is a Dental Implant? Dental implants are a fixed, permanent, long-term solution to replace missing teeth. A dental implant is an artificial tooth root that is securely placed into the jawbone and replaces the root of a missing natural tooth. Who is eligible for dental implants? People who have lost one or more teeth as a result of an accident, gum disease or tooth decay can consider implant options. The jaw bone starts shrinking soon after the tooth is lost.
