Getting a Dental Implant? Here’s all that You Need to Know

Posted by MarketDental on Sun, 7 Oct 2018

A dental implant is a metal post fused to the jaw-bone through the gums that supports the artificial crown of the tooth as a replacement for the lost tooth. The metal post is first made to fuse with the jaw bone over a few months. This process is known as osseointegration. Generally, the most popular metal for manufacturing a dental implant is titanium, which fuses to the bone easily without causing any reactions.

When a person loses a tooth, the shape of the teeth around it begin to deform and dissolve, leading to damage to the jaw bone. Loss of a tooth can also cause problems in chewing, which limits the kind of food that can be ingested, and can lead to malnutrition. Losing a tooth can also lead to problems in speaking and can affect the self-esteem of the person. And if all that wasn’t enough, losing a tooth or teeth also changes the way the teeth come together when a person bites or chews food, thus affecting the jaw joint (temporomandibular joi
