What are the benefits of getting a single tooth implant?
The principal advantage of getting a single-tooth implant over a fixed bridge is the latter requires alteration to perfectly healthy teeth for support. This alternation can lead to jawbone deterioration in the future.
But, single tooth implants are directly inserted into the jawbone, which acts as a root that helps preserve the jawbone.
What do you mean by dental implants?
Dental implants are artificial titanium posts surgically inserted into your jaw to replace one or more missing teeth. The implant has three parts:
- Anchor – It is the metal device that is inserted into the jawbone.
- Abutment – It appears like a screw attached to the anchor to hold the prosthetic in place.
- Abutment – It appears like a screw attached to the anchor to hold the prosthetic in place.
How to care for your new implants?
One crucial factor to keep in mind when you care for implants is to keep plaque from building up around the implant.
Be sure to practice proper oral hygiene regularly. Make regular dental visits and keep your dentist informed about any pain or discomfort you undergo with implants.
