Dental Implants San Diego, CA
Replace your Missing Teeth in a Single Session
There’s no denying that once a tooth/teeth are lost – whether due to a disease or an accident – then something quite important goes missing too. You see, once a tooth is lost, the stability of the remaining teeth is hampered greatly since the jawbone starts to dissolve progressively. This kind of shrinking, if not checked, can result in devastating consequences in the future; which includes further tooth loss or adequately anchored teeth.
It is for this reason that we have been working for years to unearth ways of keeping the jawbone from shrinking whenever a tooth is lost. And now, we are proud to announce to you that we have an affordable solution that staves off bone loss while allowing fixed, permanent and durable restoration for the missing teeth in the form of dental implants.
Offered right here in San Diego, dental implants are arguably the most practical tooth replacement option closest to the real thing. And this is mostly because they are typically rooted in the jaw bone just as original teeth. The procedure, which should not really take a lot of your time, involves the implantation of one or more anchors in the jawbone which will later hold the tooth in place. The roots or anchors are typically made of titanium and are considered non-toxic and being biologically compatible with your overall oral ecosystem. The idea that they are forged from titanium also means that they are just as strong as natural teeth.
Being experienced dental specialists, we know that the key to a successful dental implantation procedure is osseointegration. This describes the tendency of the bone growing into the dental implant itself. As soon as this bond stabilizes sufficiently, we will cap the underlying root with a natural-looking replacement tooth. In some cases, the anchor can be used to support the bridge or crown -or even a full set of dentures.
That being said, it is important to recognize that dental implants are not necessarily ideal for everyone. You have to have sufficient bone to support the anchors in your jaw and a drive to take excellent care of your oral health during and after the treatment period. However, if done right, the benefits of a successful dental implant procedure in restoring speaking efficiency, chewing and overall aesthetics cannot be overstated enough.
