When to consider dental implants?

Ans. Dental implant is also known as surgical fixture. It is placed into the bone of the jaw and allows them to infuse with the bone over a period of few months. Implants support a dental prosthesis like the crown, bridge and denture. You can consider implant treatments in following conditions:

• If you have one or more missing teeth due to trauma or injury.
• If you have fully grown jawbone. It is necessary for implant to fix into bone.
• If you have adequate bone in the ridge of the jaw, to secure the implant.
• If you are going through orthodontic treatment, implants provide anchorage. It is called orthodontic mini implant. (TAD)
• If your treatment plan needs small diameter implant, i.e. mini implant.

The implants are a viable and safe option for restoring the natural like teeth. They are more of less a permanent option and they have a quick recovery period. They are easy to maintain and clean and the dental implant surgery in Mumbai has a very high success rate.
