I understand how confusing it can be to choose the right tooth replacement option. You might be asking yourself a lot of questions about comfort during and after treatment, appearance, durability, and cost. And perhaps the biggest question of all: Why do I even need to replace my missing tooth?
Now talking about teeth, they not only help you in chewing but also impact your appearance, self-confidence & long-term overall health. So definitely it should be replaced.
Agreed?
Making the right choice in replacing is a crucial decision, and today I am here to help you with the same.
The best & sturdiest option for replacing a missing tooth, also it mimics your natural tooth the closest& doesn’t require the support from adjacent teeth is DENTAL IMPLANT.
A dental implant is a titanium screw placed in the jawbone which acts like the root of a tooth, once it is attached to the surrounding bone, a crown is placed on the implant which looks and functions just like a natural tooth.
Now let me make you aware of many facts related to dental implants, helping you to make the right choice.
WORRY: PLACING A DENTAL IMPLANT IS PAINFUL.
Fact: We perform a complete procedure under local anaesthesia, same as what you have experienced during your tooth removal but it is way more comfortable than tooth removal. Maybe you need to take pain medication for a few days post-surgery to manage pain.

WORRY: METAL SCREW (DENTAL IMPLANTS) IN YOUR JAW CAN BE UNCOMFORTABLE.
Fact: Once the implant is placed & attached to your jawbone it’s the most comfortable & satisfactory tooth replacement option out there, which is nearest to the natural tooth. The material used is 100% bio-compatible (friendly to be accepted by your body), also the shape of the crown matches the natural tooth which makes it even difficult for you to differentiate between both.
WORRY: MAY NOT CHEW COMFORTABLY WITH DENTAL IMPLANTS.
Fact: Unlike dentures, which may slip or move, implants stay in place, allowing for confident eating and speaking. Additionally, it doesn’t even require support from adjacent teeth like bridges do, preserving more natural tooth structure and minimizing the amount of space needed by the prosthesis.
WORRY: DENTAL IMPLANTS AREN’T AS STRONG AS NATURAL TEETH.
Fact: In fact, Dental implants are not just strong but stronger than natural teeth, which allows you to eat all kinds of your favourite food.
WORRY: IMPLANTS ARE NOTICEABLE.
Fact: Talking about the implant (the screw), it is completely submerged in your bone underneath the gums. The crown is visible and is replicated to your adjacent teeth by shape, size & color by our skilled lab technicians.
WORRY: IMPLANTS ARE ONLY FOR THE ELDERLY.
Fact: Implants are the latest tooth replacement option available to date irrespective of age. Actually, I have noted, that elderly people undergoing implants start feeling young, as it mimics the natural tooth & nobody can even make out. So, Implants are for all healthy individuals having adequate bone.
IS THIS PROCEDURE RIGHT FOR YOU?
LET’S EVALUATE, IF YOU’RE A CANDIDATE FOR AN IMPLANT.
WORRY: IMPLANTS HAVE A LOW SUCCESS RATE.
Fact: Implants have a 97% success rate which is nowhere near any of the replacement options in terms of longevity, comfort& appearance.
WORRY: IMPLANTS REQUIRE A LOT OF MAINTENANCE.
Fact: Just treat it as your natural tooth, brush it twice daily, floss it once a day &bi-annually visit us for a routine check-up. That’s all it needs.
Happy now?
WORRY: DENTAL IMPLANTS CAUSE BONE DEGRADATION.
Fact: Correctly placed implants help to preserve bone, which doesn’t happen in any other replacement option.
WORRY: IMPLANTS ARE A SHORT-TERM SOLUTION.
Fact: Dental implants are incredibly durable. With proper oral hygiene and regular dental visits, they can last a lifetime. This makes them a great investment for your smile.
WORRY: DENTAL IMPLANTS ARE THE MOST EXPENSIVE OPTION.
Fact: While dental implants might seem pricey upfront, they’re the most cost-effective option in the long run. Other options like dentures and bridges may cost less initially but often need frequent replacements and special attention, which adds up over time. Also, more dental insurance plans are starting to cover implants, making them more affordable.
