Dental Implants
What are Dental Implants ?
It is possible to lose teeth due to unpredicted events and progressing age. Implants are used
to replace single missing tooth as well as multiple missing teeth. Implants are placed
within the bone and allowed to heal for 3-4 months. In the healing period, the bone around
the implant grows and gets integrated with the implant and gives it trusted stability.
In case of multiple missing teeth, dentures are usually provided to help patients with
chewing food and maintaining normal speech. Eventually, dentures lose their steadiness,
making regular activities difficult. Dentures supported by implants work better than
regular dentures and can last a lifetime with proper care and management.

Frequently Asked Questions on Dental Implants
Dental implant is a titanium screw which is similar to the root of your teeth. They are fixed within the jawbone and are used to replace one or multiple missing teeth.
In the long-term, implants do not compromise the health of adjoining teeth. Dental
Implants have better prognosis as compared to bridges or dentures. Whereas to place the
bridge, adjacent healthy teeth need to be prepared/reduced. Removable dentures hold the
adjacent tooth for support with the help of clasp which makes that tooth weak and mobile
eventually.
Out of all missing teeth replacement options, dental implants are the only ones which
preserve the bone.
For implants 90-95% success rate has been reported over a period of 10 years. Many implants
last long more than 40 years too. This is notably better option than bridge and denture.
Success rate depends on several factors such as oral health and habits of the individual.
Implants are resistant to decay. Proper home care and regular follow ups are important to
maintain health of dental implant. As each individual is different, it is hard to predict exactly
how long the implant will last.
Missing teeth can result in a visible empty space affecting your appearance, speech and
confidence. Unoccupied space causes other teeth to move in that empty space. This results in
shrinkage of the jawbone which may alter the shape of your face and make you look
prematurely aged.
There are few conditions that may disqualify you from getting implant placement, such as:
Chronic uncontrolled diabetes
Heavy smoking
Bisphosphonate therapy
Severe bone loss
Time to complete the treatment varies from 3-6 months depending upon the initial amount of
bone present. This much of time is required for the implant to merge with the bone. Complex
cases may take more time to get finish.
Temporary dentures or bridges can be worn over implants till they merge with bone.
No. With advanced local anaesthesia techniques the discomfort associated with getting
implants is far less than expected. When we see patients during follow up visits, even they are
pleasantly surprised by how little discomfort they had. You can go back to work and your
daily activities the next day.
Dental implants provide extra retention and support to your removable dentures. The dentures
can also be secured/fixed in place with the help of implants.
After a tooth removal the bone starts to shrink, so it is better to get implant immediately or as
soon as possible after extraction. Sufficient height as well as density of bone should be there
to place an implant. In cases where there is moderate to severe bone resorption, bone graft is
required which increases the total cost of the treatment.
Getting dental implant is one of the safest medical procedures. However, certain
complications can occur rarely with any surgical procedure.
Sometimes because of thinning of the sinus floor, a sinus lift may be required to place an
implant in upper back region of jaw.
Sometimes patient with compromised immune system may reject the dental implant.
Therefore, it is important to discuss your detailed medical history with your
implantologist before getting an implant done.
Because of poor after-care and oral hygiene, infection or delay healing can occur.
Therefore, it is important to follow post operative instructions and avoid smoking as well
as alcohol.
