What are Dental Implants?
If you have spaces in your smile, it can age you beyond your years, thanks to dental implants you’ll never feel distressed over missing teeth again.
You can repair severely damaged teeth with dental implants. They are fashioned of two parts, the alloy post fastened to the jawbone, which replaces the tooth’s root, and the restoration, which replaces the tooth itself. A dental restoration (porcelain crowns, dental bridge, partial denture, etc.) is secured to the top of the tooth implant, restoring your congenital smile and giving you the functionality and balance you need to chew, laugh and smile adequately.

Benefits of Implant Dentistry
Having missing teeth can embarrassing. It effects the way you eat and impedes your natural smile. Surrounding teeth may drift; bone loss can happen at the source of the missing tooth and you may be confined to certain foods. Implant dentistry from Glenn Alex DMD can restore your dental health by allowing you to eat regularly, smile confidently and brush and floss regularly, just as you would with natural teeth.
Dental Implants Procedure
The titanium alloy implant, which functions as the new tooth’s root, is inserted into the space left by your natural tooth root. After the jaw and gums have treated and established, a tailor-made dental crown is then placed into the implant. Once finished, you’re ready to eat, drink and showcase your smile.
Dental implants takes time to finish because the dental implant fastening requires time to combine to the bone before the replacement tooth can be attached to it. Every person and treatment is different, so recovery time ranges between a few weeks to a few months, or longer.
