Understanding Implant Dentistry

Dentures and dental bridges do a fine job of replacing missing teeth. Implant dentistry, however, takes tooth replacement to a whole new level, offering a permanent solution for Philadelphia dental patients.

It’s so important to replace not only the crown of a tooth – the part that is visible above the gum line – but also the root system. When a tooth is lost, whether by extraction, gum disease, or trauma, the roots go along with it, leaving the jawbone unstimulated.

If multiple teeth are missing, especially in the same part of the mouth, the jaw will eventually begin to deteriorate. The telltale sign of extensive tooth loss is a compressed-looking mouth or shrunken jaw. When dental implants are surgically implanted, the healing process includes the fusing of the implant to the jawbone.

This secures the implant in place and takes the place of the absent tooth root. After the surgical area is completely healed – a progression that usually takes a few months – the customized prosthetic tooth is permanently fixed in place.

Implant dentistry fills the hole left by a missing tooth both above and below the gumline – permanently. You will have a complete smile after any implant surgery – and a healthy, restored smile.

Creating Healthy Mouths and Replacing Missing Teeth

One of the main reasons people have missing teeth is gum disease. When this affliction is so severe that teeth become loose and fall out, the periodontal disease will need to be treated before any dental restorations can happen. You need a healthy mouth to ensure that implant dentistry is successful.

At Dentistry for Life, we strive to provide the best implant dentistry Philadelphia has to offer, that's why we carefully look at your mouth through x-rays and other scans and a thorough exam to ensure that you are a good candidate for implant dentistry.
