Dental implants to smile with confidence

Dental implants to smile fearlessly with the methods of modern cosmetic dentistry. Taking care of the health of our teeth is a primary concern for all people in today's world. However, all too often, many people experience problems with their teeth. Which, often either out of ignorance or the well-known fear of the dentist, they neglect, resulting in them becoming bigger and sometimes even leading to tooth loss.

Cosmetic dentistry

Other times, many people with broken or cracked teeth or people with discoloration or gaps between teeth have difficulty even smiling or speaking freely! For all these problems and more, one thing is for sure, modern dental science has made huge progress and can solve them using new advanced techniques that will give you teeth that are natural, that will stand the test of time and most importantly without hurting you! So a tooth that has decay and hurts is not led to extraction as it used to be, but to endodontic treatment. That is to root canal treatment and thus to the salvation of the tooth. Porcelain tooth crowns that perfectly approximate the texture and colour of natural teeth can cover broken or cracked teeth and restore the aesthetics of your mouth in the best possible way.

Implantology

In recent years, the field of implantology has also developed very much. No one has to worry about lost teeth anymore since dental implants can replace one or more teeth that have been lost from the patient's mouth in the most painless and aesthetically better way. Where modern dentistry has evolved tremendously is in the field of cosmetic dentistry, where tooth veneers, gum reshaping, and porcelain veneers can restore problems such as tooth discoloration, gaps between teeth, and gum shape.

Dental implants

Losing one or more teeth is a very traumatic experience for anyone who has experienced it. In earlier years the most common solution was to have a bridge placed so that the problem could be corrected. This way, however, not only does not give a definitive solution to the problem, but we should know that in order to place a bridge, the dentist must also intervene on the adjacent teeth by grinding them and thus reducing their volume. As a result, patients gradually lose these teeth as well, since the lifespan of a bridge does not exceed 10 years, and then the procedure has to be repeated by placing a new bridge on teeth that have already been ground down and have become very damaged. However, the patient needs a solution that will last over time and ensure the best aesthetic result, so that he or she can feel comfortable speaking and laughing without fear.

Modern dentistry

This is exactly where the evolution of modern dentistry has dental implants to demonstrate. Dental implant placement is the most modern dental tooth replacement technique and has many advantages. First of all, the aesthetic result compared to the placement of bridges is much superior since the implants not only look, but also behave like a natural tooth, they do not grind and therefore do not endanger the adjacent teeth. This means that we are not at risk of losing more teeth over time, which is very important for anyone who has experienced tooth loss. Another great advantage is that implants are much more durable and long-lasting than any bridge. Finally, it turns out that this method is also more economical since you will not have to have a new intervention after a certain period of time.

How dental implants are placed

Dental implants are the most modern development in dental science and are nowadays the most appropriate solution for the replacement of one or more lost teeth. The placement of dental implants is not difficult at all as it is done under local anesthesia and is not painful at all for the patient. The dental implant procedure takes 15 to 20 minutes and most patients after the end of the procedure report no pain or much less pain than they expected. This is very important because fear of pain can lead to wrong choices and avoidance of dental implants.

Tooth replacement with implants

It goes without saying that implants can replace one or more teeth and before their placement, the patient's mouth is subjected to an appropriate X-ray examination. A graft, i.e. a titanium screw, is then placed in the jawbone, which is fully biocompatible with the human body. A period of two to three months is required for this titanium "root" to be absorbed and fully integrated into the bone. See here real photos with dental implants.

Porcelain case

This will be the base on which a crown, a porcelain case, will be added, which looks and behaves exactly like a natural tooth. So now we can chew fearlessly, but also smile freely as our teeth will be beautiful just like natural teeth. It is worth mentioning here that even in cases where the jawbone is not sufficient, a dentist can regenerate the bone in various ways so that he can then place the root of the graft. Finally, it is very important to add that in cases of loss of many teeth, where in the earlier years a mobile denture was inserted, now with the implant technique a much more permanent and secure solution can be provided. That is, some implants can be placed so that the denture is better supported, giving more security and confidence to the patient.

The right choice of implantologist

Implant placement can be a simple procedure, but depending on the patient's case, it may require more difficult and complex intervention techniques. This is precisely why we need to take special care in choosing an implantologist so as to ensure the best results without unnecessary discomfort. The implantologist we choose should have the appropriate postgraduate studies with a specialization in the field of implantology, but should also keep abreast of all the latest developments in this field. It goes without saying that it is very important that he or she has a lot of experience in implant placement which can help us and make us feel that we are in safe hands.
