Structure: A dental implant consists of three parts:
Implant: The screw-like portion that acts as the artificial root.
Abutment: Connects the implant to the crown.
Crown: The visible ‘fake’ tooth that matches your natural teeth.
Types of Dental Implants: Single Tooth Implant: Replaces a single missing tooth. Implant-Supported Bridge: Ideal for several missing teeth. All-on-4 Dental Implants: Restores entire upper or lower jaw. 3-on-6 Dental Implants: Alternative to implant-retained dentures. Benefits of Dental Implants: Improved chewing and speech. Natural appearance and self-esteem boost. Independent support, reducing stress on adjacent teeth. Bone preservation and anti-aging effects. Remember, dental implants can significantly enhance your quality of life!
Complete Dentures (Full Dentures): Used to replace entire sets of teeth. Typically recommended when all other options have been exhausted. Pros: Restore eating and chewing, improve self-esteem, and maintain a fuller appearance. Cons: Require maintenance, lower denture retention declines over time, and may cause speech impediments initially.
Fixed Partial Dentures (Implant-Supported Bridge): Replace a few missing teeth in a row. Permanently attached using dental implants. Pros: Improved aesthetics, better bite, and stronger than removable dentures. Cons: Requires surgery, higher cost, and special floss for cleaning. Removable Partial Dentures: Replace some missing teeth in either the upper or lower jaw. Can be removed at any time. Pros: Restores natural look and function. Cons: Not as strong as fixed dentures, but more affordable and removable. Remember to care for your dentures properly, and their average lifespan is around seven to ten years with proper maintenance.
