Implantology

Implantology

Implantology is that area of dentistry that is concerned with the diagnosis, design and insertion of implant devices and restorations which provides adequate function, comfort and esthetics for the edentulous (lacking teeth) or partially edentulous patient.

Over the past four decades, implantdentistry has evolved from enlightened clinical experimentation to scientifically proven procedures and materials. Today dental professionals have at their disposal reliable clinical methods to replace missing teeth with implant supported systems that duplicate natural teeth in form, function,stability and beauty.

Treatment modalities only dreamed of twenty years ago are now reality, such as, patient evaluation through three-dimensional imaging, regeneration of atrophiedbone by use of advanced grafting techniques, single tooth replacement without traditional bridge therapy, elimination of the “problem” denture, to
name just a few. And the modern dental office is at the center of this revolution!

So if you are missing oneor more of your natural teeth, you may benefit from dental implants. The main advantages of implants over other modes of correction are:

  • Implants bond biologically to the living bonetissue.
  • Once united with the bone, they support yourteeth firmly and safely.
  • Implants restore function and aesthetics to normal levels.
  • Eating, talking and chewing need no longer be painful experiences.
  • Dental implants prevent progressive bone atrophy and shrinkage.
  • Dental implants help to preserve bone levels and a youthful facial appearance.
  • Like artificial joints, they have a proven scientific basis.
