what is a dental implant?
Dental implants are the closest thing to your natural teeth, as they are titanium screws designed to replace the root of a tooth. Moreover, they can be used to replace anything from a single tooth to an entire denture.
What advantages do dental implants have over fixed or removable bridges?
Fixed or removable dental bridges have many limitations and problems. To create a fixed bridge the adjacent teeth have to be trimmed to support and create enough space for the restorative material. While removable bridges with their clasps accumulate a lot of plaque, they tend to create cavities and damage adjacent teeth in the long run.
Who is the specialist doctor to place the implants?
Implantology is a subspecialty of Dentistry that involves different specialties (Prosthodontics, Periodontics and Maxillofacial Surgery) therefore implants can be placed by these specialties as long as they comply with years of training. The minimum average experience in this specialty is 4 years and this training must be accredited by prestigious universities.
What are the different types of dentures that exist with implants?
Those that only involve a single tooth are called implant crowns or implant-supported crowns. Those involving multiple teeth are called implant-supported bridges and can be completely fixed or removable. Complete dentures that are only retained with implants and are removable are called overdentures.
How long does the procedure to place an implant last?
The procedure usually takes only a few minutes when a single implant is placed. However, the time may extend if multiple implants are needed.
Is it painful to place an implant?
It is generally not painful to place implants, especially if only one is needed. However, when more implants are placed, the discomfort during the postoperative period can increase. Moreover, the procedure is performed under local anesthesia in the dental chair, eliminating the need for general anesthesia.
