Dental implants are dental restorations that replace missing teeth. They look, feel and act just like natural teeth do, and with proper care, can last for decades.
Dental implants make a great replacement for missing teeth, because they look, function and feel just like natural teeth do. However, they are also the most invasive option, and sometimes require supplementary procedures, such as bone grafts.
With dental implants, it is possible to replace just a single tooth, multiple adjacent teeth, or even a full upper or lower jaw of teeth.
If you’ve lost a tooth or had to have one extracted, the most beneficial thing you can do for your overall oral health is to fill the space left behind. Here are some tooth replacement options to choose from.
Dental Implants are typically made up of three parts: The implant itself, the abutment, and the crown. Here, our Surrey dentists provide a brief overview of each component.
Periodontal procedures, such as soft tissue grafts, are available to stop further dental problems and gum recession, and/or to improve the aesthetics of your gum line.
Non-surgical periodontal therapy removes plaque and calculus by controlling the growth of harmful bacteria and by treating conditions that encourage gum disease.
As far as a dental restoration goes, the terms "crown" and "cap" are synonymous. Crowns are synthetic caps, usually made of a material like porcelain, placed on the top of a tooth.
Dental Implants are a great advancement in dentistry as they permanently replace missing teeth in a way that no previous dental technique was able to accomplish.
