Implant Dentistry Helps Ann Arbor Residents Replace Missing Teeth

When patients are missing teeth in Ann Arbor, implant dentistry by Dr. Paresh Shrimankar and Dr. Rohit Reddy is available to restore smiles.

2014-03-26

ANN ARBOR, MI, March 26, 2014 (Press-News.org) With tooth loss affecting appearance and functionality, it's no wonder so many people with missing teeth seek a dental solution that will restore their teeth as close to their natural smile as possible. Many options are available today including dentures and bridges, but the most sought after treatment is implant dentistry for Ann Arbor patients at Comfort Dental. Implants offer a permanent solution to tooth loss, providing maximum strength and stability for a natural looking smile patients will be proud to show off.

An implant is an artificial tooth root placed into the jawbone to hold a replacement tooth. Crafted of biocompatible materials, implants take the form of a small metal post, which are compatible and integrate well with living bone and tissue. They are designed to replicate the look and feel of natural teeth while restoring full functionality and preventing tooth decay and bone loss. Implants are increasingly becoming the ideal option for people in good health who have lost a single tooth or multiple teeth due to gum disease, injury or the natural aging process.

"Tooth loss can cause both functional and aesthetic problems for adults. Problems can arise almost instantly, including pain, difficulty eating and poor speech. With time, adjacent teeth may shift towards the gaps left in your teeth. And for this reason, I urge all my patients in Ann Arbor to seek implant dentistry options so that we can further protect their teeth and smile," said Ann Arbor, MI dentist, Dr. Paresh Shrimankar.

By replacing the entire tooth, including the root, implants make it possible to replicate the function of natural teeth, with a durable, stable foundation. Other benefits of implants include:

- Improved Appearance: Dental implants look and feel just like natural teeth.
- Improved Comfort: Implants are securely anchored, so there is no slipping as there is with dentures. This eliminates some of the key inconveniences of dentures, including poor fit, gum irritation, and pain.
- Improved Health: Dental implants can help prevent deterioration of the jawbone caused by loss of teeth, so a patient's face retains its natural shape.
- Durability: Implants are strong and can last a lifetime with proper care.
- Convenience: Unlike dentures, dental implants are permanent, eliminating the inconvenience of removing dentures.

Not everyone is a good candidate in Ann Arbor for implant dentistry. Patients must have healthy gums and adequate bone to support the implant. The patient must also be committed to good oral hygiene, including dedicated brushing, flossing and regular visits to Comfort Dental to visit Dr. Paresh Shrimankar and Dr. Rohit Reddy. Patients who have lost one or more of their natural teeth can continue to live confidently with implant dentistry from the Ann Arbor, MI dentists at Comfort Dental.
