What are dental implants

Let’s start from the beginning, what are dental implants? Dental implants are a procedure where the patient will substitute a tooth or many teeth with an artificial tooth anchored to an implant. This implant is a screw, usually made form titanium, drilled into de jawbone to support said tooth, bridge or even a full denture. This makes it the perfect treatment for patients who suffer from teeth loss. It gives them a new permanent smile and their confidence back.

It is not a surprise that it remains one of the most popular dental treatments at our clinic and Los Algodones.

How many dental implants exists?

The good thing about dental implants is that they are versatile. As stated above, they can replace a single tooth, a couple of teeth or even a full denture. It will depend in your current situation and budget. Even so it is worth it to invest in any dental implant as they provide a permanent solution to tooth loss. I think the real question is which one is more convenient for you in case you need a full denture. Luckily for you, there are several options available.

The cheapest one is to go for a snap on denture which is pretty affordable. It consists on 2 implants that will support a detachable denture. With 2 implants it makes impossible to support an immovable denture, even so it will secure the detachable denture. This can be a good option for patients that are in a budget.

If you want the best dental implant treatment available, I recommend the all on 4 procedure. It consists in 4 implants that support a permanent denture. This is the best because it uses few implants for the fixed denture. It means little weight and stress for your jaw and mouth. It is really comfortable and the procedure is quick and painless. You can opt for more implants like 6 or 8 but it effectiveness will depend on your specific condition.

Consideration for dental implants

Some few recommendations that you have to take into account when choosing dental implants is your bone density. To support the implants, you need enough bone in your jaw. In case you do not have enough, then you need bone graft to gain enough bone jaw. The bad news of this is that you will need to wait to heal before coming back for your dental implants.

This brings me to my next point which is the healing period. You need time to heal from the first step of the procedure, the installation of implants. During 6 to 8 months, you will use a temporary denture. During this period, you need to follow every dentist’s instruction, otherwise the procedure will fail and you will lose all progress. It is important to follow a good dental hygiene and a special diet in order to complete the healing period successfully.

After that step is done you will return for the permanent teeth or denture that will complete your smile. Going for dental implants is not that complicated of a decision, but it is imperative to wight the pros and cons for you current situation. If you ask me, it is worth it as long as you have the budget and patient to endure 6 months of waiting. After that it becomes a solid choice for patients who wish to fic their smile.
