The Choice Of Dental Implants Vancouver BC

People who are missing teeth do not only shy away from smiling, it affects their confidence level and general health too. Your chewing method is badly affected and this could lead to secondary health problems. A visit to <A href="http://www.acedental.ca">dental implants Vancouver BC</A> practitioners could set you on the road to have your missing teeth or dentures replaced with a stronger, permanent set of teeth.

The implants are composed of small titanium screws which your dentist places into your jawbone. This section acts as a natural tooth root replacement. Once the screw has been placed, a tooth crown is placed on the post which provides you with a fully functional tooth. Titanium is used because it can fuse with the jaw bone in the same way as a natural tooth root.

There are several methods of replacing missing teeth during this procedure. If you are a denture wearer, you can have it replaced. Many denture wearers suffer with loose dentures due to the loss of bone in the jaw. This problem can quite easily be overcome with the placement of implants.

In the event that you have lost all your teeth, you have the option of a procedure called all-on-four. This is perfect for denture users who are suffering with loose dentures constantly. This procedure requires the placement of eight posts into your jaw line, in order to replace full sets of dentures. The dentures are fixed to the posts.

You can opt for a multiple procedure if you have lost a few of your teeth. This is also suitable if you are at risk of losing your teeth. This happens as people age and their teeth are not as strong as they once were. Single posts are used if you have lost a single tooth. This is the simplest of all the procedures and the full process may be completed in one sitting.

There are times when the procedure could be a drawn out event, depending on what is required. The period is also dependent on the condition and amount of bone that is present in your jaw. In cases where your jaw bone has deteriorated, it may be necessary to have bone replacement done before the implants can be placed.

This procedure will start with surgery to replace the lost bone in your jaw, with artificial bone or bone taken from another part of your body. This is often taken from your hip and placed in your jaw. The implants are often placed during the bone replacement procedure. You will have to allow time for the bone to integrate with the implant. Once integration has occurred, your new tooth can be placed.

If you do not require a bone transplant, you may be able to have your implants placed much quicker. The implant is simply placed in the same spot where you are missing a tooth. The tooth crown will then be placed immediately.

To determine if you qualify for this type of procedure, you should discuss your options with your dentist. It may be necessary for you to be referred to a surgeon who specializes if you need bone replacement surgery. Your practitioner will take time to assess your personal situation and recommend the best procedure for your needs.
