What is Dental Implant Restoration and How does It Work?

Thursday, January 1st, 2009

Dental implants are the best possible solution for replacement of missing teeth. If only one tooth is missing, there is no other way to fill the gap unless you are considering putting a bridge there. This would require ruining perfectly fine neighboring teeth. A restoration of a missing tooth is a common procedure and allows the dental professional to implant a screw into your jawbone or skull bone, providing halt for the crown. This screw is usually made out of titanium, because this metal is known by its ability to fuse with the bone tissue. The procedure is routine and can be employed right after an excision has taken place.

In such a case, a small part of the gingiva is removed from the drilling place and the screw is being placed. Then a crown is being placed on the screw, providing for a tooth which will look and feel the same as the natural one. The other possibility is when a gap is already present and an incision is being made and the gums flapped open, providing the drilling place where the screw will be placed. Nowadays immediate loading procedures are available, where crowns are being affixed the very same day. Longer procedures would require a few months time and multiple visits to the dentist. Both procedures have excellent success statistics.
