Dental Implants What are You Waiting For?

Author Lois Posted on

Dental implants are simply the best replacement whether you are missing one or all of your teeth.

According to your dentist in Everett dental implants are remarkable and are just like natural teeth. In fact, implants are so natural you can enjoy the foods you used to without worry about your teeth falling out.

What are Dental Implants?

Your implant dentist in Everett explains that dental implants are made up of two parts, posts and artificial teeth. The screws or posts are surgically placed in or on the jawbone.

The screws are usually made from titanium, but can be manufactured from human grade materials for those who are allergic to metals.

The artificial teeth are placed on top of the posts after surgery has healed. Healing is different for everyone, but on average takes about 6 to nine months.

If you require more surgery such as bone grafting you will need additional time to heal.

Is Everyone a Good Candidate?

People who smoke or drink heavily and people with diabetes aren’t good candidates either. In addition, those with systemic diseases may not be ideal for this type of tooth replacement either.

Back in the day the only people who were suitable for dental implants were those that had enough bone to support the screw.

People without enough bone had to endure bone grafting. Furthermore they may not even be suitable for implants.

Fast forward to the 21st century and nearly everyone is suitable for implants thanks to All on 4 dental implants.

All on 4s Teeth in a Day

Author Lois Posted on

Avenue Dental Care is the only All on 4s practice in Everett to consider for teeth in a day. Teeth in a day is a remarkable procedure that wasn’t around when your grandmother needed new teeth or your mother for that matter.

Thanks to All on 4s you can have new teeth in a day even if you have been missing them or wearing dentures for decades.

Dentures Better than Nothing

One of the problems with replacing missing teeth with dentures is loss of bone. People who are missing even one tooth will notice the loss of bone under the socket where the tooth used to be.

Unfortunately this happens to all types of restorations that aren’t surgically placed. In other words people with dental bridges experience bone loss as well.

Your implant dentist in Everett explains that tooth roots exercise the bone. When you lose a tooth there is nothing to give it what it needs. This leads to bone loss.

All on 4s to the Rescue

Thankfully dental technology has paved the way for All on 4s. All on 4s are permanent dentures surgically secured with 4 posts on each arch. That means four implant screws on your bottom arch and four on the top.

This type of dental appliance is best for those who are missing a considerable amount of teeth. It is also perfect for people who wear dentures or for patients whose teeth need to be extracted.

Most experience a fast and easy process as patients are fitted with temporary dental arches until the surgery heals.

Because you are having surgery you will require at least 6 months of healing. Others may need 9 to 12 months of before they can be fitted with their new permanent dentures.

New Teeth with All on 4s

If you have been dealing with failing, missing teeth or both you know how difficult it is to enjoy a meal. You also know how hard it can be to clean your teeth. Teeth and gums that are difficult to keep clean will become decayed and diseased.

With All on 4s you take care of your teeth just like you normally would. This means brushing and flossing twice and once a day accordingly.

When you practice good oral hygiene you won’t have to worry about replacing your All on 4 dental implants unlike dentures and other types of dental appliances.
