A dental implant is an
artificial tooth root that a periodontist places
into your jaw to hold a replacement tooth or bridge. Dental implants are an
ideal option for people in good general oral health who have lost a tooth
or teeth due to periodontal disease, an injury, or some other reason.
Advantages
of Dental Implants Over Dentures or a Bridge
Every way you look at it,
dental implants are a better solution to the problem of missing teeth.
·Esthetic Dental implants look and feel like your own
teeth! Since dental implants integrate into the structure of your bone,
they prevent the bone loss and gum recession that often accompany
bridgework and dentures. No one will ever know that you have a replacement
tooth. Tooth-saving Dental implants don't sacrifice the quality of
your adjacent teeth like a bridge does
because neighboring teeth are not altered to
support the implant. More of your own teeth are left untouched, a
significant long-term benefit to your oral health! Confidence Dental
implants will allow you to once again speak and eat with comfort and
confidence!
They are secure and offer freedom from the irksome clicks and wobbles of
dentures. They'll allow you to say goodbye to worries about misplaced
dentures and messy pastes and glues.
·Reliable
The success rate of dental implants is highly predictable. They are
considered an excellent option for tooth replacement.

What are Mini
Implants?
OsteoCare™ Mini Implants are titanium screws, which
firmly attach to the jawbone, replacing the natural roots of missing teeth.
They can be used to stabilise loose dentures
As well as replacing teeth and reforming the
contour of the face, dental implants
are about giving back confidence, dignity and
self-esteem.

Implant Aftercare
Just like natural teeth,
implants will require very thorough cleaning for the best long-term results.
Integrated implants do not suffer
from the same disease process as normal teeth and seem to be more tolerant to
neglect. Generally a normal toothbrush is all that is needed,
although other brushes may need to be adopted for awkward areas.
