Roots form the basal structure in most beings, and the tooth is no exception to the rule. It is the root that gives the strength to the tooth and decides on its longevity to a major extent. If your tooth is weakened at its root, you cannot expect much out of it in its ability to crush or bite stuff, and you can be left with compromises on what you eat and consume. So, what do you do when you have problems with your tooth and its root? Well, gone are the days when you would have to go for dentures that may not serve much of a purpose than making you look normal. With implants, you could get your tooth right back, with all the strength associated with a perfectly natural tooth. The perfect solution for people with major tooth problems is implants. They are the technology of the day and have made significant changes to people’s lives. With the help of an implant dentist, you too can change your life.

One of the reasons why implants have come to be accepted as a reliable cure for dental problems is the relatively permanent nature of the treatment. They are made of titanium, with the basal structure of the restoration designed to look as natural as teeth, and made to hold the artificial teeth firmly in place. As a result, with strong roots formed by specialists in Los Angeles, dental implants are as good as the natural teeth, given the sufficient time needed for the healing to take place after the implant process is done. To be sure, the implants look like a set of normal screws, though the basic material that they are made of, are of a different nature, capable of being fit into the jaw bones to sit comfortably. The main body and the collar of implants hold the set of teeth together on the superficial base. The collar serves the purpose of forming the bridge that connects the root with the tooth.

A common dental implant that will help give you your new smile is the Endosseous implant. These are popular because they are added on to the jaw bones directly, and with time, they tend to merge with the jaw bone to become a natural part of the body. The process could take place in two stages. Dental implants proceed with the first step of placing the implants on to the jaw bones and giving a gap of around 3 to 6 months, before the process of osseointegration takes place. The end result is an effective and natural looking set of teeth that you always wanted. Call our implant dentist, Dr. Arthur A. Kezian DDS today to schedule a consultation about dental implants.
