Who Needs Tooth Implant Repair?
While a dental implant is made to be a permanent solution for a lost tooth, it may require repair if it becomes damaged. The crown or bridge used to cover the implant post is the most likely to need repair, while the titanium or porcelain post is less likely to require repairs or replacement.
To create a full dental implant, an implant post is installed beneath the gums and is allowed to fuse directly to the jawbone. These posts are made most often from titanium, with some being porcelain, and are fused to the jawbone and allowed to heal before the crown or false tooth is attached to the top.
In our Toronto Dental Implant Center, you can fix your old dental implants with dental implant repair in Toronto.
Different Stages of Dental Implant Repair
Dental implant repair is done in several stages. Usually, removal of the damaged tooth is done by the installation of the post, and after that has healed, the crown is attached.
It can be completed with a bridge if more than one tooth needs to be replaced, or when all teeth require replacement, four posts may be used to hold the entire set of teeth.
Over years of use, a crown may become damaged through regular use. They have an average life span of ten to fifteen years, which will require replacement. Along the way, they may chip, crack, and have similar damage to natural teeth, which can usually be corrected with the same methods used to repair natural teeth.
They can be filled when a small chip occurs or replaced with a new crown when needed.
Essential Caring Tips to Maximize the Life Span of Dental Implants
Although a tooth implant is professionally created to last a lifetime, the following caring tips are highly recommended to eliminate the need for dental implant repair:
- Implanted teeth should be cared for regularly
- Brush and floss them just like your natural teeth
- Regular dental visits shouldn’t be neglected
- Avoid using them for cracking nuts or other activities that natural teeth are not used for
- Stick to a healthy diet
When a dental implant becomes damaged somehow, it is important to have it repaired through Toronto implant repair procedures to avoid infection and pain.
A Comprehensive Comparison of Bridges & Dental Implants
The following comparison between dental bridges and dental implants can help those who wonder which procedure can properly address their dental needs:
Main Features of Dental Bridges
- With a dental bridge, the healthy tooth structure must be removed to support the dental bridge.
- The supported teeth will be subjected to forces with time passing, which results in the weakening of the supporting system.
- If the bridge and crowns are not fitted well, the bacteria and plaque will enter them and cause tooth decay and bone loss.
- Connecting three or more teeth makes flossing difficult or even impossible.
Particular Features of Dental Implants
All the problems mentioned above can be prevented with dental implants. Implants at our Toronto dental clinic can replace one or more missing teeth.
A dental implant is an artificial root inserted into the jawbone, and bone grows around the implant. Then, the dental crowns are secured over the implant. So you will not experience bone loss anymore. You can also clean the areas around your implant.
The Necessity of Replacing Lost Teeth Promptly
The psychological effects of missing one or several teeth are complex and different for everyone. You may experience many negative emotional consequences, affecting your social life. A dental implant is the best and permanent solution for a lost tooth (or teeth).
