Dental implants are not exactly a new technology, as Mayan dentists were embedding tooth-shaped shell implants into their patients' jaw bones over 3,000 years ago. Of course, without modern anesthesia techniques, dentistry procedures were probably a lot more intense than they are today. Fortunately, the Miami cosmetic dentistry industry has made a few advances since then. These days, dentists use titanium implants to replace missing or severely damaged teeth, and support dental bridges and dentures.
Dental Implants Offer Significant Health Benefits
If you lose a tooth, whether it's to an accident or decay, you go to the dentist and get a new one. Or at least, something that looks like a new tooth. What most people end up with is a crown or a dental bridge, depending on how many teeth need to be replaced. These traditional dental structures tend to be the least expensive options, and require the simplest surgery to apply. There's nothing wrong with the sound of that, but unfortunately, there's a problem. These structures are the least like your original teeth in every possible way- look, feel and function. And while any experienced Aventura dentist can set you up with a decent crown or bridge, they'll also be the first to tell you that dental implants or bridges, as well as dentures supported by implants, offer significant health benefits.
Despite its appearance, bone is neither dead nor insensitive. To maintain its proper form and density, bone requires constant physical stimulation. Your jaw bone gets that stimulation everyday from the force and motion of your teeth. As you chew, chomp, grit or grind your teeth, they transmit that force into the jaw bone through the tooth roots, which embed your teeth into your jaw. Traditional bridges or dentures are bonded onto nearby teeth, which typically have to be shaved down to accommodate the structure. This means that you would be losing healthy tooth mass and your missing teeth would be replaced with a structure that does not provide the necessary bone stimulation to your jaw.
Without that stimulation, your jaw bone will gradually lose density and mass, leading to a whole host of unpleasant problems including thinned lips, drooping facial muscles, deformation of the skeletal structure of your face, numbness or nerve pain, and additional tooth loss from gum disease. Think gingivitis is no big deal? Think again. Ask any dentist in Aventura and they'll tell you that gum disease- not - is the number one cause of adult tooth loss. That's where implants save the day. Dental implants are inserted into the jawbone, allowing them to fully replace your teeth by giving your jaw bone that much needed stimulation. Whether you're replacing a tooth with a single implant, or getting implant supported bridges or dentures, your dentist will strategically locate dental implants to give you the maximum jaw bone stimulation. Implants look and feel so natural you'll forget they're man-made, and your body will too, making sure that your jaw bone stays in optimum health.
