They act as an anchor for a replacement tooth or crown or a set of replacement teeth.<br \/>\nImplant patients are of all ages and implants may be the right choice for anyone missing one or more teeth due to injury, disease or decay. They are especially practical for patients who can no longer wear removable dentures.<\/p>\n<p><b>ADVANTAGES OVER \u00a0CONVENTIONAL DENTURES:<\/b><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Improved appearance.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Dental implants look and feel like your own teeth. And because they are designed to fuse with bone, they become permanent.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Improved speech.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>With poor-fitting dentures, the teeth can slip within the mouth causing you to mumble or slur your words. Dental implants allow you to speak without the worry that teeth might slip.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-683\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kauveryhospital.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/05\/Picture2-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.kauveryhospital.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/05\/Picture2-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.kauveryhospital.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/05\/Picture2.jpg 406w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Improved comfort.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Because they become part of you, implants eliminate the discomfort of removable dentures.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Easier eating.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Sliding dentures can make chewing difficult. Dental implants function like your own teeth, allowing you to eat your favorite foods with confidence and without pain.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Improved self-esteem.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Dental implants can give you back your smile and help you feel better about yourself.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Improved oral health.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Dental implants don&#8217;t require reducing other teeth, as a tooth-supported bridge does. Because nearby teeth are not altered to support the implant, more of your own teeth are left intact, improving long-term oral health. Individual implants also allow easier access between teeth, improving oral hygiene.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Durability.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Implants are very durable and will last many years. With good care, many implants last a lifetime.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Convenience.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Removable dentures are just that; removable. Dental implants eliminate the embarrassing inconvenience of removing dentures, as well as the need for messy adhesives to keep them in place.<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Santa, Dental Surgeon, Kauvery Hospital, Chennai<br \/>\nPh: 044 &#8211; 4000 6000<br \/>\nEmail: <a href=\"mailto:info@kauveryhospital.com\">info@kauveryhospital.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Kauvery Hospital is globally known for its multidisciplinary services at all its Centers of Excellence, and for its comprehensive, Avant-Grade technology, especially in diagnostics and remedial care in heart diseases, transplantation, vascular and neurosciences medicine.
