Dental Implant Placement Chandler, AZ Dental implants can completely change the way you use your mouth and can help you fix some of the biggest problems with dentures. There are several reasons why you would and should use them. Our implant specialists at Scholes Periodontics & Implants work with dental implants all the time, so we are well equipped to perform your dental implant surgery. Why Would You Need Dental Implants?If you are dealing with tooth decay, need a root canal, or are having gum problems, a dental implant might just save your mouth from further damage. Those problems can become dangerous and cause trouble for your overall oral health if left untreated, so you might need a dental implant to get it fixed. The Components of Dental ImplantsUnderstandably, patients who have suffered widespread tooth loss can feel uneasy about going out in public because of the way people might judge their appearance. Dental implants can resolve that issue quickly and neatly. When implants are placed, they can be tinted to match the coloring of the rest of the teeth in the patient's mouth. They can also be shaped so they are the correct size to fit within the shape of the patient's face. If asked, most people would likely guess that an implant is a single component but that is not true. Each implant is made of three different segments. The first piece is the actual implant. This is the section that is embedded into the jawbone. It provides a strong foundation to support the other two pieces. The abutment is the second component which is attached to the implant and threaded onto it like a screw. The final piece is known as the crown and is the segment of the implant that is visible. Steps in Dental Implant PlacementDental implants are placed over several appointments. The first office visit consists of the assessment and examination at which time we will come up with a treatment plan which addresses all of the patient's needs. Utilizing cutting-edge technology, the artificial teeth are computer-designed and manufactured so the patient can rest assured they will be an exact fit. Once placed, there is no need to reshape or contour them at all. They are not like traditional dentures which have to be custom-fitted into the oral cavity, sometimes rubbing and chafing areas of the mouth. Tooth loss is difficult to handle but the choice for an artificial tooth solution is not. Dental implants are an excellent choice and can restore lost functionality as well as the patient's smile. Benefits of Dental ImplantsOne of the benefits that dental implants give you is the ability to have a fully functioning mouth again. The appearance of your smile will improve drastically, along with your speech. Without dental implants and only dentures, sometimes your teeth can slip and that causes problems with your pronunciation and volume.
