Glen Allen, VA, dentist explains the benefits of zirconia dental implants
If you have a weak or damaged tooth that needs to be extracted or have recently lost a tooth, it’s important to talk to your dentist about your tooth replacement options. Dental implants, dentures, and bridge and crown appliances are all viable options for most patients. However, as Dr. Olivia Hart tells her Glen Allen, VA, patients zirconia dental implants offer several important benefits including:
- Safety and durability. Essentially, a dental implant is a replacement tooth root. A tiny zirconia post, a metal-free material, is placed into the jawbone. As the bone heals, it attaches to the implant, which gives it the necessary strength to support a replacement tooth. Together, the dental implant and crown function exactly like the original tooth. Patients can smile confidently and speak clearly.
- Provides support to your mouth. Some patients consider not having the tooth replaced, especially if it’s located in the back of the mouth However, all your teeth are important. Molars provide necessary function for chewing and speaking. It also provides support to your face and the rest of your teeth. When a tooth is missing, the other teeth can begin to shift out of place. This creates an environment for gum disease and tooth decay throughout the mouth.
- Permanent solution. If you want a solution that doesn’t require removing it every night and putting it back into place every morning, dental implants are the right solution for you. The crown can be permanently placed and a lasting solution. Implants and replacement teeth require the same care as the rest of your teeth, including good oral care at home and regular dental checkups.
