Consequences of Missing Teeth
Before discussing dental implants and their many benefits, we feel it is important for you to understand what can happen when missing teeth are left untreated, even with traditional restorations that sit on top of the gums.
- Surrounding teeth shift & rotate to fill the space
- Alignment, bite & TMJ can become compromised
- Gum tissue & underlying jawbone deteriorate without support of the tooth root
- Face becomes sunken in causing premature aging
Dental implants are designed to provide a foundation for replacement teeth that look, feel, and function like natural teeth. Teeth implants can help you regain the ability to eat anything and smile confidently, knowing your teeth appear natural and that facial support will be preserved.
Implants are titanium posts placed into the jawbone by an implant dentist where teeth are missing. The bone grows around the implant, creating a strong foundation for the crown.
In addition, dental implants can help preserve facial structure, preventing the bone deterioration that occurs when teeth are missing. When teeth are extracted, the body does not think the bone is needed so it recedes away, deforming the shape of the jaw. Implants stimulate the bone and keep it at healthy, normal levels.
Teeth implants are changing the way people live! With implants, people are rediscovering the comfort and confidence to eat, speak, laugh, and enjoy life.
What to Expect With Dental Implants in McPherson
Every case starts with a diagnosis and a dental treatment plan. We look at the tooth or teeth that are missing, the bone underneath, and how your bite works, then walk you through what treatment would involve.
Placement happens here. Your McPherson dentists have the advanced training and technology to surgically place and restore dental implants from the comfort of your dental home, so there is no need to find a specialist somewhere else.
Once the implant is placed, the bone grows around it and creates a strong foundation for the crown that goes on top. That crown is made to look like the teeth beside it.
From there, your implant is looked after the same way as the rest of your teeth. Regular cleanings and exams with our general dentistry team keep the implant and the gum tissue around it healthy.
