Maybe
it's your natural smile, maybe it's your ability to munch on certain
food, and it's almost certainly your confidence and usual exuberance.
You may also experience pain, muscle strain, headaches and find it
difficult to speak clearly. The effects of tooth loss are individual and
dependent upon exactly what you have lost.
If you have lost the crown, you have lost the
visible part of your tooth, but you will still be able to have a new
artificial crown fixed to your natural root. If, however, you have lost
the root as well, you have also lost the unseen part of your tooth.
For years, full or partial dentures have been the
conventional types of tooth replacement; but most people who are missing
one or more teeth find that this is a far cry from an ideal solution.
The development of Dental Implants is one of the most
significant advances in dentistry. These state-of-the-art medical
devices restore the function and appearance of your missing teeth, all
the way from the crown down to the root.
A dental implant is an artificial tooth root that will
provide the support a tooth crown needs to withstand the pressures of
chewing - pressures that are greater than one might imagine.
With modern dental technology, the shape and colour of
an implant-supported crown can be custom-made to look just like your
natural teeth. There is no telling the difference.
