London, Ontario dental practice offers implants for tooth replacement
Restoring the smile after tooth loss might seem problematic for patients who are overwhelmed with their choices. But with the help of experienced dentists such as Drs. Ashish Papneja and Marjan Moaveni of London, Ontario, patients may find that they might be great candidates for solutions such as dental implants. Dental implants are a popular option for patients missing one or more teeth and continue to be the gold standard in tooth replacement for both new and established patients in our practice.
What is a dental implant?
A dental implant is a titanium post that is extremely small and is placed into the jawbone after tooth loss. The jawbone grows around the implant, giving it the foundation it needs to support a crown, bridge, or denture. The implant itself will last a lifetime with proper care, making it an excellent investment for patients considering a more permanent option than dental bridges or partial dentures, alternatives for tooth replacement.
Dental implants explained by Dr. Ashish Papneja
What are dental implants?
Dental implants are an excellent treatment option to replace missing teeth.
Why would someone need a dental implant?
The reasons why you would want to get a dental implant is if you’re missing one or more teeth and you want something that is fixed in your mouth.
With dental implants, you don’t have to take anything in and out like a denture.
What is the process of getting a dental implant?
The procedure is very simple. You would visit us, and you get a local numbing in the area. We then place the dental implant into your jawbone and wait for that to heal.
Once that heals, you return, and we will take some impressions to make your actual tooth.
Dental implants are a great treatment option because they last a very long time, as long as you have good upkeep, maintenance at home and come in for regular checkups.
Who is a candidate for dental implants?
Patients considering dental implants will need to be the right candidate before moving forward with oral surgery. The best patients do not have periodontal disease and tooth decay while also maintaining enough bone structure in the jaw to support the implant and ensure a successful placement.
