A dental implant is like a metal screw that is placed into the jaw bone. It works as an anchor for a false tooth or a whole set of false teeth.
If you're in reasonable health and want to replace missing teeth should consider dental implants.ᅠᅠ One condition is that you must have enough bone in the area of the missing teeth to provide for platform to insert the implants.ᅠᅠ There are people out there who are missing all their teeth and they are still considered best candidates for dental implants procedure and it's, of course, possible to replace single teeth as well.
So who should you see about getting missing teeth replaced? Prior to development in dental implants, you went to either your general dentist or to a prosthodontist. If you want to replace your missing teeth, it is important to get a best specialist.ᅠᅠ Some people decide to get a complete teeth makeover as well.ᅠ Not all doctors perform combination of dental implants and veneers, for example, but there are doctors out there who will do this for you as a part of a complete makeover package.
Porcelain veneers are ultra-thin shells of ceramic material that are bonded to the front of teeth. If you're having this done on its own this procedure requires little or no anesthesia, and can be the ideal choice for improving the appearance of the teeth. Porcelain veneers can be used to mask discolorations, to make teeth brighter and to improve a smile.
The porcelain veneers are highly resistant to permanent staining from coffee, tea, or even cigarette smoking.ᅠᅠ Once they bond to the tooth they are completely resistant and look very natural.ᅠ Combined with dental implants, veneers are a total way of making your smile absolutely perfect and beautiful.
Porcelain veneers are a perfect alternative to crowns as well.ᅠ Due to developments in dental technology porcelain veneers can mask undesirable defects, such as teeth stained by tetracycline or as a result of a root-canal procedure, and are just perfect for masking discolored fillings in front teeth.
Once you get your dental implants done you can continue improving the look of your teeth by getting porcelain veneers for teeth with gaps between or teeth that are chipped or worn.ᅠ In most cases, veneers will last for many years, and the technique has shown amazing longevity if it's done by an expert.
Porcelain veneers are reasonable facsimiles of natural teeth, not perfect replacements like dental implants.ᅠ Sometimes there are little variations in the color of porcelain veneers but this occurs even in natural teeth.
