Do you have dentures or a partial you wish you could just throw in the trash? Do you have missing teeth? It can be miserable to have teeth missing or have something in your mouth that keeps slipping ? making eating and talking troublesome. Dental implants may be the answer. In Michigan, Bright Side Dental is a premier implant dentist.



Implants are permanent solutions to missing teeth, they feel and look like your own natural teeth. An implant is a surgical post that is permanently fixed into the jaw. It's fantastic because an implant ensure a high level of comfort and stability in eating and speaking. With today's advances in cosmetic dentistry and Bright Side Dental's high aesthetic quality, you can be assured of very natural-looking results.

Missing teeth are a common problem today. Before dental implants became prevalent as a dental solution, the choice was usually just dentures, bridges or a partial.

Dental implants really mean the end of ?false teeth? and the start of being able to be just like anyone else. You could say an implant is like an artificial root because it acts just like one. Once mounted, new artificial crowns can be attached or the implant can be used to securely attach a partial or denture, depending on your particular needs.

The procedure is uncomplicated. First a metal post is placed beneath your gum. Temporary teeth are made for the time while the surgery heals and the post sets. Once it has fused to the bone a new crown is built for you to naturally match your existing teeth and it is mounted on the implant.

We all remember our grandparents who ?took their teeth out? at night or maybe have seen someone who embarrassingly lost their false teeth when out for dinner or socializing with friends. Dentures also easily crack and break, causing pain and inability to chew. And it can be a humiliating problem to be waiting for repairs and being seen without teeth.

Additionally, dentures and partials can create discomfort and difficultly while eating. The importance of proper mastication, chewing, for suitable nutrition from the foods eaten is another good reason for implants. According to the ScienceDirect website, ?The ability to efficiently and effectively break down foods is important because the size of food particles swallowed has been related to digestion and evacuation times. In older individuals with missing teeth and dentures, impaired masticatory performance has been linked to gastrointestinal disturbances and malnutrition.?
