It is time to put the embarrassment of missing or broken teeth in the past. Dr. Romay’s advanced prosthodontic training makes Baltimore Dental Co. the ideal practice for placement of dental implants. A dental implant is the only tooth restoration option that offers patients the look, feel, and functionality of their natural smile.
THE IMPORTANCE OF REPLACING MISSING TEETH
Missing and extensively broken teeth do not only cause self-consciousness, but also put adjacent teeth, gums, and the temporomandibular joints at risk. The added strain on your surrounding dental structures may lead to teeth shifting, dental decay, periodontal disease, and additional tooth damage. For this reason, we recommend replacing your tooth or teeth as soon as possible.
WHAT IS A DENTAL IMPLANT?
A dental implant is a medical device that aids in the replacement of a missing tooth or missing teeth. It is a small titanium post that is placed beneath the gum that will integrate with the bone tissue. The dental implant will act as an artificial tooth root and provide a stable foundation. After complete bone integration is achieved, a dental crown is fabricated to fit on top of the implant. Once inserted, the implant and crown will restore functionality and allow you to smile fully again.
DENTAL IMPLANTS IN GLYNDON, MD
The first dental implant was placed in 1965, and technology has made the process more successful and simpler than ever. Dental implants provide the most stable tooth replacement option because they effectively replace the lost tooth root, making implants the most beneficial treatment option for the majority of conditions.
The dental implant process is unique for each dental situation. What is common among all dental implant placements is that some healing time is required to ensure full bone integration is achieved. During healing, we have many options for short-term, aesthetic replacements so that you never feel self-conscious. This tooth replacement option has high patient satisfaction due to dental implants’ long-term benefits.
WHO ARE DENTAL IMPLANTS FOR?
Are you wondering, “Am I a candidate for dental implants?” Any individual over the age of 18 years old who is missing any number of teeth, or has failing teeth, could qualify for dental implants. Optimum oral and whole-body health are a necessity for proper healing. If you are still unsure whether or not you are a candidate for implants, schedule an appointment to meet with
