It\u2019s hard to smile with confidence if you have a hole instead of a tooth. That\u2019s why it\u2019s imperative to react promptly in case you fracture or lose a tooth. The most efficient way to restore your smile is to replace the missing teeth with <a href=\"\/dental-implants\/\">long-lasting dental implants.<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Examining the bone and the gum<\/strong><br \/>\nIn the case of a missing tooth, the oral and maxillofacial surgeon first needs to examine the bone and the gum tissue around it. A dental implant needs a proper anchor to stay firm. If your gum is naturally thick, it will be easier for the surgeon to place the implants. Thin gum tissue, on the other hand, will result in a more difficult implant procedure.<\/p>\n<p>Often, there isn\u2019t too much bone left behind a missing tooth. Therefore, your surgeon will first need to place a titanium anchor, as the base for a dental implant. It can take a few months for the remains of the bone to grow together with the anchor. Once it becomes a solid unit, it will keep your implants firm for good.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Adding the crown<\/strong><br \/>\nWhen the anchor and the jaw bone becomes one, you\u2019re ready for the next stage of dental implantation: the crown installation.<\/p>\n<p>The crown is the part of the tooth visible to others. For dental implants, crowns are usually made of porcelain. However, some people go for dental porcelain-fused-to-metal dental crowns, as well as for gold and base metal crowns. The choice of the dental crown for dental implants will depend on your budget, esthetical preferences, and your dentist\u2019s opinion.<\/p>\n<p>Since every person has a specific colour of the teeth, dental implants need to match their surroundings. Additionally, teeth can have different shades from the gums to the crowns. That\u2019s why a dentist and a prosthodontist need to work together to make dental implants that look the same as your other teeth.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Replacing several missing teeth<\/strong><br \/>\nMany people don\u2019t react in time when they lose a tooth. They come for help only when they end up with several missing teeth. Logically, they need to get multiple dental implants. The most significant benefit of this dental technique is that you don\u2019t have to remove or alter any other remaining teeth. One dental implant will replace each missing tooth.<\/p>\n<p>While this restoration process costs more than traditional partial dentures or multiple tooth bridges, they\u2019re way more convenient. Those old-school dental restorations can lead to severe root and gum infections, plus there\u2019s no guarantee how much they\u2019ll last. With dental implants, you get both durability and quality for a lifetime.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Conclusion<\/strong><br \/>\nDental implants are state-of-the-art solutions for cracked, broken, or damaged teeth. They enable <a href=\"https:\/\/maxillovendome.ca\/dr-michel-el-hakim\/\"><strong>oral and maxillofacial surgeons<\/strong><\/a> to treat each dental issue with the utmost care and attention. When made and placed by our experts, dental implants will look the same as your original teeth. As a result, you\u2019ll be able to smile and eat without difficulties once again, which will improve the overall quality of your life.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A damaged or broken tooth can shake your self-confidence and affect your oral health.
