Dental Implants

Dental implants are an option that not only improves smiles, but also encourages healthy tooth
and bone growth. For many individuals, dental implants offer a superior alternative to tooth loss
and decay. Also known as artificial replacement dentistry or prosthetic dentistry, dental implant
procedures are considered within the field of cosmetic dentistry, one of the most commonly
performed procedures around the world.

Common Dental Implants

Today, dental implants fall into two basic categories types:  

Endosteal implants attach directly to bone and provide the base or anchor for artificial teeth
within the actual structure of the jawbone. Such implants are attached to the jawbone, to which
artificial teeth are attached with cones, screws, or nails.  

Subperiosteal implants create a metal framework the lies over the jawbone. This framework
provides the anchoring system for artificial teeth in case jawbone structure, density or strength
is inadequate. This type of implant is usually performed on individuals whose jawbone
structure is weak or deteriorated.

Who Benefits from Dental Implant Procedures?

Individuals suffering from the loss of one or multiple teeth in the upper or lower jaw line benefit
from dental implant procedures, which encourage optimal benefits that increase dental and
oral health, jaw alignment and chewing ability. Dental implant procedures also help to prevent
tooth loss or gum disease caused by cavities, aging, poor oral hygiene or injury.
