Are you considering getting dental implants?
Dental implants are an excellent option for the right candidates. They enable dentists to replace missing teeth without altering or affecting the surrounding teeth.
Dental implants essentially create a prosthetic tooth, replacing the missing tooth with an artificial root that’s surgically placed into the jawbone. After a few months, the jawbone fuses with the implant, gaining stability that mimics natural teeth.
When is Someone a Good Candidate for Dental Implants?
Because dental implants are placed directly into the bone, it’s important for patients to have a healthy bone structure before any procedure is started.
Other factors you and your doctor might consider include:
- The location of the missing tooth or teeth
- Your overall health
- Your preference between dental implants, dentures, and a fixed dental bridge
Dental implant cost is another factor patients should consider. The cost for this procedure tends to be higher than other options, given the complexities involved with the surgery, but for people who want to improve their smiles with results that are as natural as possible, dental implants should definitely be top-runners in the consideration process.
Is Jaw Fusion Included in Your Dental Implant Cost?
Jaw fusion is part of the dental implant process, so, yes, it is included in the cost. Jaw fusion is the process whereby your body accepts the implant as something that’s supposed to be there, rather than recognizing it as a foreign body.
