What is Implant Dentistry?
Our team specializes in all areas of dentistry, and implants are one of our top fields. Implant dentistry focuses on restoring missing teeth and enhancing oral health using dental implants and supports.
Dental implants act as another tooth to replace the one that is missing, damaged, or infected. The fixture is surgically implanted and performs all the functions that your tooth would otherwise. Of course, we try to preserve as much of your original tooth as possible, as this does a much better job for your oral care habits.
What are The Different Types of Implants?
There are various types of implants that may be right for you, but it’s best to consult a professional first. The three most common types of dental implants are endosteal implants, subperiosteal implants, and all-on-X implants.
- Endosteal implants are surgically implanted directly into your jawbone. This is suitable for when you have a lot of density left in your jawbone.
- Subperiosteal implants are placed on top of the jawbone but beneath your gum tissue and are best used when there is less jawbone density.
- All-on-X implants are various strategically placed implants to support a full arch of teeth.
What Can Implant Dentistry Do For You?
With the team’s help at Sconzo & Sciascia General, Cosmetic, and Family Dentistry of Brooklyn, NY, your smile is just an appointment away. Here are just some of the incredible benefits you can expect from choosing a strong partner for your implant dentistry needs:
Permanent Solution
Dental implants are a permanent solution for replacing missing teeth, regardless of whether it’s a single tooth or many in a row. Unlike traditional dentures or bridges, implants are surgically placed into the jawbone, giving you the stability necessary to prevent bone loss over time. Implants look, feel, and act like natural teeth if they are made and appropriately placed.
Better Care and Functionality
Implants don’t just help fill in what’s missing; they give you the functionality you want to live your everyday life. Over time, they integrate with your jawbone to provide a stable foundation to chew and speak. You will have the confidence necessary to sing and smile without worrying about how your teeth look.
