The one thing that doesn\u2019t change, though, is that when teeth are lost, they must be replaced for both the health and function of your mouth. And when it comes to tooth replacement, dental implants are the absolute best choice you can make. Keep reading to learn what you can expect from <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.arlingtondentalimplants.com\/dental-implants.html\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">dental implants in Arlington<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> today.<\/span><!--more--><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">All About Dental Implants: The Sturdiest Option in Teeth Replacement<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dental implants have come a long way in the past few decades. What was once an expensive, invasive surgery is now an accessible, hugely successful option for anyone missing one or more teeth. Now let\u2019s have a closer look at what dental implants are, and how they\u2019re placed.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What Are Dental Implants?<\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can think of dental implants like tiny titanium golf tees &#8212; they\u2019re surgically placed right into your gums. The implant acts as a prosthetic tooth root, and its top, or the head of the tee, connects the new tooth replacement to the implant. <\/span><\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How Are Dental Implants Different?<\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dental implants differ from other replacement options, like fixed bridges or non-implanted dentures, in that they replace the visible portion of the tooth as well as its root. That\u2019s vital in maintaining the health of your whole mouth, as missing roots result in jaw deterioration and even further tooth loss later on.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What Can I Expect From the Dental Implant Procedure?<\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In all, successful dental implantation can take up to six months. That seems like a long time, but once the implants have been placed into the jaw they need several months to fuse with the bone, a process we call osseointegration. After the implants are totally secure, your new replacement can be securely replaced. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The result? A totally secure tooth replacement that, when cared for properly, can last a lifetime.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Am I a Good Candidate for Dental Implants?<\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you\u2019re interested in learning how dental implants can complete your smile, you\u2019ll need to schedule a consultation with Dr. Baldwin, the implant dentist in Arlington. In this initial appointment, we\u2019ll use our revolutionary Cone Beam CT technology to<\/span> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">check for two things.
