All That You Need to Know About Zirconia Dental Implants (Part 2)
Allow me to continue our discussion on dental implants.
Implants should fuse to the jawbone to provide a stable support or foundation for your artificial teeth or dentures.
Once the prosthodontics are mounted on the implant or implants, they won’t shift or slip into the patient’s mouth. Implants are quite costly compared to teeth extraction or a root canal treatment that allow you to preserve the original tooth while removing the infected tooth root instead.
The most common problem with people who have removable dentures aside from hygiene is how unstable the dentures could get. Some even swallow or choke their dentures accidentally.
It’s important to have implants because they allow the prosthetic teeth to be stable enough to be used for eating and speaking.
Implants are further characterized by how bridges and dentures tend to have a secure fit over them with the assistance of fillers known as abutment. This results in a hard base not easily dislodged, kind of like a natural tooth with a root that’s linked deep into the socket of the jawbone.
The implants make you feel more natural than conventional dentures or bridges.
The implants are more comfortable than removable dentures and bridges that require to chisel healthy teeth to become anchors or abutments for the prosthetic crowns.
It is possible for bridges to induce gagging, poor ridges, and sore spots. The gums might also end up infected or allergic to the metal, leading to swelling and irritation. Ordinary bridges also tend to necessitate destroying the tooth or teeth on either side of the missing tooth or teeth.
