Dental Implants

Mind The Gap!

What is the best solution if you have missing teeth and you still want a perfect smile? Implantology is the way to go.

Tooth implants can replace bridges and dentures so even if you have more than one tooth missing, you will be able to benefit from this treatment. If you are missing just one natural tooth, then one implant is normally all that will be needed to provide a replacement. If the gap is bigger because you have two, three or more missing teeth, you may not need one implant per tooth.

How many you will need will depend on how much bone you have in the implant site and if it is good enough quality to take an implant.

Dental implants are small titanium fixtures which serve as a replacement for the root portion of the missing natural tooth. It will fuse with the bone over time and thus serve as an anchor for the replacement tooth. Implants can be used to replace single, multiple or all teeth. They can also be used to secure dentures firmly into place. Dr Avik Dandapat is a highly skilled implantologist.
