How Can Implants Benefit You?
Dental implants have so many advantages over other treatments like dental bridges or dentures. These benefits include:
• Lifelike Function – Implant-retained crowns are very durable and can last for decades if maintained properly.
• Bone loss prevention: With missing teeth, your jawbone can start to lose bone mass resulting in less density and lower height. Dental implants help to avoid this issue by transferring biting pressures directly into the bone structure
• Convenient Maintenance – Dental implants can be cleaned in the same way as natural teeth with daily brushing and flossing and using occasional mouth rinse as well as routine checkups here at Milani Dental care located in Woodbridge, Ontario.
• Teeth support: If you’ve had missing teeth for a long period of time, then your teeth might be mal positioned. Teeth always tend to shift into missing area resulting in misaligned teeth. Dental implants could prevent that.
• Better self-esteem: When you smile, people can see the missing teeth and that could be embarrassing. If you are hiding your smile because of a missing tooth, a dental implant can restore the missing area which could help you smile with confidence.
• A natural look: As dental crowns which go on top of the dental implants are made to look like the teeth around them, you’ll never have to worry about a fake and unpleasant smile.
If you want a dental implant to improve your smile, you can enjoy all its benefits with our smile design and smile restoration methods at Milani Woodbridge Dentistry located in Vaughan, Ontario.
Missing One Tooth
Are you missing one single tooth in your smile? We can use an individual dental implant to support an all-ceramic dental crown to restore your smile. Unlike a traditional dental bridge, this method enables us to fit a tooth right into place between natural teeth and doesn’t require any preparation on other teeth next to the missing area. In fact, it’s likely that nobody is going to tell the new “tooth” isn’t an original!
Missing Multiple Teeth
All-ceramic dental crowns can be supported with dental implants in multiple places throughout the mouth replacing multiple missing teeth, but another option for consecutive gaps is an implant-retained bridge. Only 2-3 implants will be placed in the jaw bone, with one positioned on either side to serve as “anchors” that keep the new, tooth like crowns securely in place.
Missing All Teeth
If a full set of teeth needs to be replaced, an implant-supported denture is a great option. This solution is also more cost-effective because the new prosthetic can be placed over a small number of implants instead of requiring one new implant per missing tooth and there is no porcelain bridge involved. Implant-retained dentures are removable like a traditional denture but much more stable as they are supported by implants.
Understanding the Cost of Dental Implants
There are several factors that can influence the cost of dental implants, including the number of implants needed, the types of restorations supported by the implants and whether or not any other adjunctive procedures (such as periodontal surgeries and bone grafts) are deemed necessary prior to the implant procedure to ensure the most successful procedure possible. For this reason, Dr. Milani and Dr. Safarinia will need to see a patient for a dedicated detailed consultation before we can determine the cost of the procedures.
It’s important to remember that while implants are certainly costly, the benefits are well worth it in the end. While traditional prosthetics like dentures will likely need to be replaced over a shorter period of time, dental implants are designed to succeed for two to three decades with only minimal maintenance, which means patients may end up actually paying much less in the long run.
