The Tooth Implant Process Gives a New Meaning to Life

Dr. Hema Nair at Star Care Dental in Glen Mills, Pennsylvania, hears from new patients all the time,

“I have been searching for an experienced dentist who does dental implants near me, and I finally found your office. I want to know more about the tooth implant process in Glen Mills, Pennsylvania.”

You want to keep as many natural teeth as possible. However, at times this is not possible, and you end up with missing teeth. There are no benefits to living with missing teeth. Read on to find out how you can replace these missing teeth with lifetime tooth implants.

A Brief Explanation of a Tooth Implant Process

We can replace missing teeth that look natural—the implants function like the natural teeth they replace. Implants look as natural as your teeth and give your life a new meaning. Allow this dentist to assess your needs for tooth implants and find out if this is the best option for you.

What Do Missing Teeth Do?

• May embarrass you
• It may cause difficulty in chewing and interferes with the digestion process.
• Suppress the natural smile and shape of the face
• Change your speech pattern

Why Chose a Tooth Implant?

• A tooth implant is the closest look and feel of your natural teeth.
• Restores functionality
• Improves your appearance
• Improves your health
• Allows your genuine smile to shine through
• Implants do not move around or become loose.
• Implants improve your speech
• Implants last a lifetime with good oral hygiene care and regular dental visits.
• Prevents bone loss

Explaining Dental Implants

You may need a single tooth implant or have multiple missing teeth needing implants. The tooth has two parts,

• The crown lies above the gum line.
• The root lies within the bone and holds the tooth in place.

An implant is placed in the jawbone taking the place of the missing root. Over time, there is a fusion of the bone and implant. This fusion forms the foundation of your implanted tooth.

Speak with Dr. Nair to decide if dental implants are the right choice for your situation. You must have patience with this process because your implants require multiple dental visits over several months, but it is well worth all your efforts. You can expect a process similar to the following.

• First consultation and examination to decide if you require bone grafting before this procedure.
• Implants are placed in the jawbone, and you must allow time for healing. Healing can take from three to six months.
• Abutments or connectors are attached to the implant. This process holds the final restoration in place.
• A dental crown, bridge, or dentures attach to the implant or multiple implants.
