Understanding Dental Implants OKC
At the Dental Arts Center here in Oklahoma City, dental implants have completely changed the way we address missing teeth. After all, our titanium dental implants serve as artificial tooth roots, which provide a strong foundation for replacement teeth. For optimal results and to ensure excellence, we custom make these replacement teeth for each patient inside of our in-house lab. Replacement teeth are also referred to as prosthetic teeth or crowns. When a crown is attached to a titanium post which serves as the tooth’s root, we call this system a dental implant.
Who With Missing Teeth Can Benefit from Dental Implants?
If you’re facing tooth loss, dental implants may be an excellent option if one or more of these situations apply to you:
- You have one or more missing teeth
- You are an adult whose jawbone has reached full growth
- You have adequate healthy bone to secure
- You do not have adequate healthy bone but are able to have a bone graft
- You have healthy oral tissue
- You have no health conditions what would affect healing
- You cannot wear dentures or do not wish to wear dentures
- You maintain good oral hygiene
The Advantages of Choosing Dental Implants
There are numerous life-changing advantages for choosing dental implants.
- Appearance: Dental implants look and feel like beautiful, healthy teeth.
- Speech: While dentures may slip and cause speech issues, implants do not and allow you to articulate perfectly.
- Comfort & Convenience: Implants become part of you and are never removed like dentures.
