Exploring Your Options for Dental Implants: Restore Your Smile with Confidence
Dental implants provide a secure, stable solution to replacing missing teeth. The implant process is more complex than other restorative procedures, which is why many people hesitate to consider this treatment. At Main Line Dental Health & Wellness in Bryn Mawr, Pennsylvania, we want you to have all the information you need about implants to make an informed decision.
For this reason, Drs. Jerald Matt and Naila Bryan, take the time to address your questions and concerns about implants here.
What are dental implants?
Implants are essentially artificial tooth roots that help anchor your new artificial teeth. These small titanium or ceramic posts are placed inside your jaw in the area where your tooth went missing. Over time, they integrate with your jawbone and heal to form the foundation for rebuilding your smile. Once the osseointegration process is complete, abutments will be attached to the implants, and your restorations to the abutments to make your smile whole again.Â
What are my new teeth options with implants? Â
Dental implants can address various tooth loss issues, restoring the beauty of your smile. Individual missing teeth can be replaced with single implants and dental crowns. An implant bridge supported by multiple implants can replace several missing teeth in a row. We can even restore your entire smile using implant dentures supported by four implants placed strategically in your upper or lower jaw.
How will implants impact my remaining healthy teeth?
Unlike traditional bridges that are anchored in place by crowns placed on healthy, adjacent teeth, implants are a stand-alone treatment. They don’t need support from healthy teeth. On the contrary, they support your remaining teeth to keep them in alignment. By preventing dental drift, implants help preserve your bite and prevent problems with bruxism and TMJ.

How long do dental implants last?
Implants have the potential to last a lifetime with proper care. Fortunately, they don’t require special treatment. You brush and floss dental implants just like you do natural teeth. Good oral hygiene, regular dental checkups, and cleanings can keep your implants strong for years. Maintaining good oral and overall health is essential for preserving the longevity of your implants.
How do implants compare to natural teeth?
One of the greatest appeals of implants is how much they look, feel, and function like real teeth. Your new teeth will have roots, just like real teeth, to keep them firmly in place when you talk, laugh, and eat. Implant teeth will have full functionality for biting and chewing. Your restorations will be custom-crafted for comfort and an authentic, natural-looking appearance, giving back the beautiful smile you lost when your teeth went missing.
