If you have done much research on dental implants, you have probably heard about the benefits of dentures held securely in place by dental implants. You may also have heard about implant bridges or partial dentures. When tooth loss is progressive as a result of aging, there is time to look at options and think about choices. When you are faced with unexpected tooth loss, no matter your age, dental implants in Conroe, TX may also provide the solution you seek.

Tooth Loss Due to Trauma

If you or a member of your family experiences tooth loss due to trauma, you want to see your dentist right away. In the best case scenario, it may be possible to replace an avulsed tooth. If the tooth cannot be saved, an implant can offer the same secure attachment, with the implant post taking the place of the tooth root, and a custom-crafted crown giving solid chewing and biting surfaces, and filling any gaps in a smile.

Tooth Loss Due to Periodontal Disease

Careful home care (that means, at minimum, brushing twice a day, and flossing once a day) can keep gums and tooth surfaces cleaned of the daily accumulation of food debris and bacteria. Twice yearly checkups allow your caring dental staff to remove tartar and check your teeth and gums for overall health. Those who are unable to maintain these habits or appointments contribute to the largest reason for loss of teeth: periodontal disease. Although the onset of perio disease is not quick, it is easy for the untrained eye to overlook in early stages, and can lead seemingly “sudden” problems when left untreated. Once issues with periodontal disease are addressed, tooth implants can help restore a smile.

Issues with Legal and Illegal Substances

Things that we ingest or inhale impact our bodies as a whole. If you have lost a tooth or teeth due to lifestyle issues, implants can rebuild your confidence, and restore the ability to speak clearly and eat comfortably in public.
