Implantology for a strong solid dentition
If implantology is a widespread practice today and if we now favor this technique for replacing missing teeth, it is undoubtedly because of the many advantages that dental implants offer, compared to traditional options for replacing missing teeth.
Stability, longevity, jaw health… Patients who receive dental implants benefit from many advantages, whether it be aesthetic, functional or oral health.

A dental implant takes the form of a small screw, made of titanium, which is inserted directly into the jawbone during surgery. It is used to replace the tooth roots of a missing tooth and is used as a solid support for various types of dentures. Titanium is the preferred material in implantology because it is biocompatible with the human body, meaning that it is unlikely to be rejected by our bodies.
The main advantage of dental implants is a process called osseointegration. Once it is placed within the jaw and as it heals, new bone cells form around the implant, allowing it to anchor itself very firmly in the jawbone. For this reason, dental implants offer advantages that are unmatched by other dental techniques.
Several conditions must be met for a person to enjoy the benefits of dental implants. For this reason, before even considering this treatment option, a comprehensive consultation and oral examination must be performed.
First of all, it is important to know that dental implants are small screws that are firmly anchored in the patient’s jawbone, thanks to the osseointegration process. For this reason, implants are excellent anchors for dentures, which are attached This results in various advantages for the patient, as the denture is very stable. After the short adaptation period, there is no difficulty in pronouncing more difficult words. In addition, the high stability of the prosthesis provides excellent chewing ability, which is very close to that of natural teeth.
Also, there’s no need to worry about there is no need to worry about the prosthesis moving or falling out!
Another important advantage; the presence of the implants within the jawbone will continue to stimulate the jawbone. With traditional dentures, the absence of tooth roots leads to a gradual resorption of the jawbone. Over time, the jawbone loses volume, which has an impact on the aesthetic appearance of the face and the stability of conventional dentures. Conventional dentures must therefore always be adjusted because the jawbone “melts” more and more over time. With implant-supported dentures, these important inconveniences are prevented.
Few people know it, but there are many consequences to having missing teeth, beyond the aesthetic problems. Indeed, our teeth form a whole within our mouth, which is perfectly balanced. Each of our teeth is held in place by the teeth next to it and by the antagonist teeth (teeth on the opposite jaw). However, when one of them is missing, the neighboring teeth will try to fill the space left by the missing tooth, which leads to gradual dental displacements that will unbalance the smile and increase the risks of oral problems such as cavities and gingivitis.
Also, a decrease in the chewing coefficient is observed since the antagonist tooth no longer has a tooth to rest on when chewing food. In the long run, this tooth may come out of the jawbone and have to be extracted. Over time, the other teeth may wear out prematurely.
Dental implants are small screws that are inserted directly into the jawbone. They are excellent anchors for various types of dentures, including dental bridges. This combination has several advantages for the patient.
