What you need to know about dental implants – Dental Glasgow
Everybody would like to have good teeth and the best smiles, but even after taking care of your teeth something may still go wrong and find yourself with a missing tooth. This may be caused by an accident or worse still an extensive infection. A dentist may also recommend removal of a tooth if it is decayed and cannot be repaired. This can be a bad moment for you especially if you had a perfect set of teeth.
This lowers your confidence and minimises your interaction with other people. However, all is not lost as any tooth can be replaced through several ways.
Dental implants are metal devices that look like posts or frames that are fitted surgically into your jawbone surgically. When they are put in place, the dentist fits a replacement tooth onto them. They work like roots that secure the teeth into the jawbone. Dental implants help secure dentures and bridges making them feel more natural and comfortable. Unlike ordinary bridges, they do not have to be attached to the adjacent teeth as they are attached directly to the jawbone. This ensures that the implants don’t shift or move during eating and speaking.
