Get That Perfect Smile with Dental Implants

Dental implants are one of the most popular treatments in cosmetic dentistry. They are used to permanently replace a single tooth or several teeth which have been lost due to dental disease or injury. Implants along with correcting the problems that accompany missing teeth also aesthetically enhance your smile.

Dental implants are screws that are placed directly into the jaw bone and support the artificial teeth. They are designed to function the same way as your natural teeth, so that you can enjoy your food, speak normally and smile with confidence. The cost of dental implants in New Delhi is also economical and affordable.

Natural teeth consist of a crown (the part you see above the gums) and the root (the part hidden under the gums.) Dental implants are like "root" devices, usually made of titanium and used to support restorations like crowns, bridges or complete dentures for missing teeth.

• The Implant
• The Abutment
• The Dental Crown or Bridge

An implant is a screw made from dental grade titanium. It is placed in the jaw bone and functions as the missing tooth's root. The implant also prevents the roots of the adjacent teeth from shifting into the empty space left from the missing tooth.

The abutment is placed on the implant and helps to join the replacement tooth to the dental implant.

The dental crown or bridge is the replacement portion. It is placed over the abutment to look like your natural missing teeth.

Replacing a Single Tooth: for a single missing tooth, one implant and a crown is placed.

Replacing Several Teeth: for several missing teeth, implant supported bridges are placed.

Replacing All the Teeth: for All missing teeth, an implant supported complete denture is placed.

• High success rate, Long lasting: unlike dentures, implants will last for many years. They typically have a very high success rate and can last a lifetime with proper care.
• Convenience: since this is a fixed treatment, it is possible to continue with your routine and other activities without believing that your denture might fall out or slip.
• Very Comfortable: with dental implants, you’ll feel like having your natural teeth. There will be a short adjustment period to get accustomed to eating, speaking and performing regular activities.
• Improved self-confidence: missing teeth can lower the self-esteem of an individual; leading to lack of self-confidence, a feeling of embarrassment and awkwardness to smile. After dental implants, you can flaunt your beautiful teeth and smile confidently.
• Durability: implants are durable and strong when compared to dentures, which are vulnerable to breakage. Furthermore, removable dentures are inconvenient to use since you need to apply creams and adhesives to prevent them from slipping.
• Efficiency in brushing: with implants you can brush your teeth easily with regular toothbrush and paste.

A candidate for dental implants should be in good general and oral health. Gums should be in a healthy condition and free of periodontal disease. The patient should also be committed to good home care and regular dental visits. Adequate bone in your jaw is needed to support the implant. If the amount of natural bone is less, it can be substituted with bone grafts, membranes and bone expansion techniques.

Heavy smokers, people suffering from uncontrolled chronic disorders such as diabetes, heart disease, history of radiation therapy to the head & neck area, need to be evaluated on an individual basis.
