The best permanent tooth replacement treatment available to Pearland people who are missing teeth are cutting-edge dental implants.
A dental implant is a metal (usually titanium) rod implanted into the bone to replace the missing root. The crown and supporting structure are securely and permanently attached to the rod. Titanium is amazingly strong and extremely well tolerated by the human body. There are very few instances of rejection. In fact, many Houston implant dentists are not familiar with any such cases.
Tooth implants offer a long-term solution to tooth loss. Are you a good candidate for tooth implant surgery?
Because the metal rod is anchored into the jaw bone, it is important that you have enough healthy bone at the implant site. Dr. David C. Montz can determine if you do. Age is rarely a factor. Dental implants have proved to be successful for Alvin people of all ages.
There are a few medical issues that may affect your eligibility for implants. These include diabetes, osteoporosis, radiation therapy for cancer, parathyroid disorders, bone disorders and leukemia. The presence of one or more of these conditions does not necessarily mean an implant cannot work for you; discuss any health problems with David C. Montz during your implant consultation.
