Does tooth loss find you whistling a tune unintentionally when you ask someone to pass the salt? Consider dental implants in Annapolis, MD!
Dental implants offer so many benefits, including:
- Superior Longevity
- Restored Function
- Excellent Stability
- Simple Maintenance
- Better Oral Health
The Breakdown: How Dental Implants Can Benefit You
- Superior Longevity: Most tooth replacement choices last several years, but they’ll need replacing several times during your life. Dental implants, on the other hand, can last for decades or even a lifetime.
- Restored Function: Dental implants allow you to enjoy all your favorite foods because there are no chewing restrictions.
- Excellent Stability: Dental implants never rock or shift in the mouth. They stay in place for the long term!
- Simple Maintenance: With dental implants, there is no additional maintenance. Treat them like your natural teeth.
- Better Oral Health: Dental implants guard against bone loss in the jaw and prevent tooth migration, which promotes better oral health.
Dental Implant Options for Every Patient
Dental implants can be singles, which means one post capped with a custom crown. They can also support an implant-retained denture or bridge. Typically, an implant-supported denture in Annapolis requires up to 4–6 implants per arch.
To start your journey, the dentist recommends that you come in for a tooth replacement consultation. We will explore jawbone density and sinus placement, discuss your goals and budget, and determine your costs.
If you proceed to the next step, we plan your dental implant surgery. This is not painful. The dentist uses local anesthesia, or we can discuss sedation dentistry options, including nitrous oxide and oral sedation.
Recovery from implant surgery is typically prompt. For example, you may experience mild swelling and discomfort for a few days, but an over-the-counter pain reliever is ordinarily all you’ll need.
