Dental Implants at Ilan Preiss
Why Choose Dental Implants?
People lose teeth for various reasons – trauma, decay, gum disease, or old age. Dental implants are the leading solution today for replacing missing teeth and offer numerous benefits:
Long-Term Solution: Implants last for many years and provide stability for teeth.
Preservation of Jaw Structure: Implants prevent bone loss and maintain the structure of the jaw.
Natural Appearance: The implanted teeth blend naturally with the remaining teeth in the mouth.
The Implant Process
A dental implant is an artificial replacement for a natural tooth root, made from titanium, a material that is well-tolerated by bone. The implant is anchored in the jawbone and serves as a base for a crown, bridge, or stable denture.
Implant Process:
Initial Assessment: The dentist performs an examination and takes X-rays of the jaw to evaluate bone quality and plan the implant procedure.
Implant Insertion: The procedure is done under local anesthesia, where the implant is inserted into the jawbone and covered with gum tissue.
Healing Period: The implant integrates with the bone over a period of 3-6 months. During this time, the patient receives temporary teeth.
Exposure of the Implant and Crown Installation: After healing, the permanent crown is placed on the implant.
Advantages of Dental Implants
Enhanced Oral Function: Allows chewing all types of food without the need for adhesives.
Preservation of Facial Structure: Implant-supported restorations preserve jawbone structure.
Proper Nutrition and Digestion: Facilitates comfortable chewing of all types of food.
Easier Hygiene: Easier to clean teeth supported by implants compared to dentures.
