Dental implants are frequently associated with old age, however, this is not always the case. Many younger people can benefit from dental implants for a variety of reasons. Dental implants are a good solution to restore the appearance of your smile if you are missing one or more teeth due to an accident, a physically traumatic incident, or serious tooth decay. Dental implants are a practical and cosmetic solution for filling gaps between teeth. They are designed to blend in with your teeth so that no one can tell you have them.
Dental Implants
A dental implant is a device that is permanently attached to the place where a tooth is missing. Depending on the patient’s oral health and the amount of lost teeth, dental implants may support a variety of prostheses such as crowns, bridges, facial prosthesis, or dentures.
Dental implants are used to replace lost teeth. They are both aesthetically pleasing and functional. Dental implants, in addition to restoring the appearance of your mouth, restore reduced dental functions and prevent your remaining teeth from slipping out of place and becoming misaligned. Dental implants are made up of three parts: the implant or post (which resembles a screw), the abutment (connection), and the crown (which is made to look like a natural tooth).
Do I need dental implants for missing teeth?
If left untreated, gaps in your teeth can lead to a number of potentially serious dental health complications. Aside from the possibility of teeth shifting, dental gaps might make you vulnerable to oral infections, which can spread throughout your body. Gum infections (periodontal illness) can lead to serious gum disease, but they have also been related to diabetes, heart disease, and even an increased risk of kidney disease.

Is Dental Implant surgery painful?
You will not experience any pain or discomfort. You will be relaxed and at ease throughout the procedure. You are not unconscious at any time. Just in a deeply relaxed state.
