Wrentham area dentist explains the importance of implant dentistry

Dental implants are popular for replacing missing teeth. While some patients may consider bridges or dentures, some want a solution that doesn’t make them worry when they enjoy their favorite foods. Implant dentistry is gaining popularity at Advanced Dental Practices in Wrentham, MA, as many patients begin to realize the benefits of this tooth-replacement option.

What are dental implants?

Dr. Rawat of Advanced Dental Practices encourages patients seeking a long-term solution to tooth loss to learn more about implant dentistry. Dental implants are zirconium or titanium alloy posts that act as tooth root replacements. The implant is placed into the jawbone and serves as a foundation for a false tooth, bridge, or denture. Dental implants are:

• Long-lasting
• Versatile
• Natural-looking
• A wise investment

How are implants placed?

Dental implants are placed into the bone of the jaw. That allows the process of osseointegration to occur. Osseointegration is when the bone of the jaw begins to grow around the implant. It holds the implant in place as a solid and durable foundation. After the implant is secured into the bone of the jaw, it is then restored. That is achieved with the placement of a dental crown, a bridge, or a complete denture. All of this depends on the desires of the patient and their specific and unique situation.

Why choose dental implants?

Implants are the go-to option for patients seeking restoration of their smiles. Implants are known for their long lifespan and durability when compared to alternatives.
