Teeth are important. Even if one tooth is lost, then a person does not feel confident and becomes insecure about their looks. It also results in not having a good smile. A person starts to think that other people will make fun of them. Not only this but if some teeth are lost, it also negatively affects a person’s health. This can result in compromised digestion. Due to the loss of some teeth, a person is not able to chew food properly, and for proper digestion, chewing food thoroughly is extremely important.
Therefore, people prefer replacement of teeth. Due to replacement of teeth, you get artificial teeth. Owing to those artificial teeth, one is able to chew food properly and digest it. Secondly, having artificial teeth also helps a person to have a beautiful smile and a person feels confident about their looks. There are different methods to replace the missing teeth, like removable dentures, crowns and bridges and dental implants.
Removable Dentures
Removable dentures are used by many people. They just need to fit and remove it whenever they want. If a person has a lot of teeth missing, then it is used. These are removed easily and a person can clean these easily. However, it does not give good biting force; therefore, a person is not able to eat properly. However, sometimes it becomes an embarrassing moment when the dentures come out.
Bridges
A crown, along with artificial teeth, is used in dental bridges. This is done when half of the teeth are lost. The most important thing is to adjust the bridge, and for that, cutting is done on normal teeth. Basically, these are trimmed, and the support is taken from these teeth to form a bridge. This is the technique that is mainly preferred by people, but it does not work for a long time. This is because the normal teeth that were cut to form a bridge actually start to decay after some time. However, these make your appearance good, and you feel confident, as they just feel like actual teeth only.
Dental Implants
Loss of a tooth can also result in bone loss. Therefore, dental implants are good for health, and they also help people to have a good appearance. It is a surgery performed by doctors. As the natural teeth have a root part, in the same way, dental implants also have this part. A surgeon places this root part inside the bone. This can be done for one tooth or more teeth. Let us discuss what actually happens under this.
- There are three things in the dental implant system. First is the dental implant body, second one is the dental implant abutment, and one crown is also there.
- A surgeon inserts the dental implant body into the jawbone which is attached with a dental implant abutment and an artificial tooth that is crown.
