Bringing Back The Glow In Your Smile With Dental Implants

A bright smile with great set of teeth could get you the confidence to do almost everything. You can win a friend, pass an interview, socialize easily, boost other’s spirits, lighten a weary heart and make every single person in the room smile. They say it’s one contagious feeling only a few could resist.

 

Losing a tooth or two, on the other hand, may have a different impact on a person’s personality.  Emotionally, he may lose the very confidence he has mustered all his life to close a business deal or nail an interview. Physically, he may encounter a lot of difficulties in chewing food. And worst if a person will be restricted on the kind of food he takes. You may blame your food that’s causing you this dilemma. Or you may say it has something to do with your toothpaste. Then you ask yourself “What type oftoothpaste should I use?”

Thanks to technology, all these woes have come to an end not because of a great toothpaste or cutting down on food. With the development of dental implants, you can bring back the glow in your smile you once had. It’s high time you get back on your tracks on work on your confidence again.

Like any other implants, the process may take for a few months depending on your dentist or surgeon. The process includes preparation of the implant site, assessment of your jaw bones, imaging techniques, and many more before the actual placement of the implants. In some cases, bone grafting may still be needed.

An implant is usually made of metal and in most cases made of titanium. Because it requires implantation of artificial teeth, drilling into the bone is required. Once drilled, the implant will be placed and the tissue is sutured. Healing may take some time. The recuperation is estimated to last from three to six months. This process will eventually make the implants a part of the natural bone. This is what is called as osseointegration.

Implants are a blessing to people who don’t like dentures or bridges placed on their mouth. And what’s great about it is it’s not like any ordinary denture that needs adhesives or special cleansing agents to make it more natural, less maintenance cost for you. It may be costly but the one-time installation, maintenance and its natural appearance makes it more worthwhile compared to dentures. So bring back your glowing smile with a dental implant.
