In fact, they are successful in more than 95% of cases! What makes them such a predictably reliable way to replace lost teeth? This blog post explains.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Mimicking Real Teeth<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Dental implants are modeled after real teeth. The implants themselves are placed into the jawbone, where they fuse with the surrounding tissue. They act as prosthetic tooth roots, which can then support crowns, bridges, and dentures. Because they are modeled after natural teeth, they provide many of the same benefits as real dentition, including reliability and strength.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Thorough Preparation<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Your dental team wants your procedure to go well, so you can expect them to do a lot of work before you receive dental implants. They will take detailed images of your jawbone, perform a thorough visual examination of your mouth, and learn about your medical history and lifestyle habits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All of that information will help them make a treatment plan that is tailored to your unique needs. They could determine that you need one or more preparatory procedures, such as a bone graft, before you receive dental implants. However, any inconveniences that you experience along the way will be worth it once your strong new smile is in place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Careful Placement<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Dental implants act as prosthetic tooth roots, so it makes sense that the process of inserting them into the jawbone requires great care. They should be placed in the right location, at the correct depth, and at a good angle. The dentists who perform this procedure pay attention to all such details in order to increase the chances of a positive outcome.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Top-Quality Materials<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Most dental implants are made of surgical-grade titanium alloy, which tends to work very well within the human body. Allergic reactions to it are extremely rare, and it usually fuses easily with the surrounding bone tissue. The crowns, bridges, and dentures that go on top of dental implants are usually made of high-quality dental ceramic, which is very durable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Diligent Post-Op Care<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If your dental team does a good job of placing your implants (which is extremely likely), the next step is up to you. For your new teeth to enjoy long-term success, you will need to take good care of them. For example, in the days and weeks after your surgery, you may need to eat a soft diet, get plenty of rest, and be very gentle around your surgical sites. Long-term good habits, such as avoiding the use of cigarettes and sticking to a thorough oral hygiene routine, are also of critical importance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dental implants are consistently successful!
