Tooth implants are very good for restoring the functionality and appearance of lost teeth. If you have lost teeth due to accidents or old-age, dental implants are the way to go. Loss of teeth can adversely affect your eating habits and lead to deficiency diseases. It can also affect the appearance of the face and make your voice sound hollow. Dental implants are a good option to rectify all these problems. They are very stable and have a long life. They are a result of years of dedicated research and for this reason they are very safe. Dental implants were discovered in the late 1950s and 60s. The major turning point in the field of dental implantology was the discovery of the phenomenon of osseo integration. Modern implants are based on this phenomenon. When titanium is kept in contact with bone, the cells of the bone integrate and fuse with it. This phenomenon is what is called osseo integration. Only titanium exhibits phenomenon and so is commonly used in making implants. Other properties of titanium which make it very suitable for making implants include its high-strength, resistance to corrosion and biological compatibility. There are other types of implants as well. These implants are known as fibro integrated implants. However, these are no longer in use. Most of the implants available in the market today are made of titanium and of osseo integrated type. This is because they are very stable and have a long life. Dental implants have been around since many years. However, much progress was made only in the recent years. New surgical techniques have been developed that make the procedure very simple and accurate. For example, better diagnostic techniques have become available which make it very easy to assess what needs to be done next. Better anesthetic agents and sedatives have also become available. The major disadvantage with tooth implants is that they are a little costly. High-end titanium implants can cost up to $8000. Insurance companies will not usually provide cover for dental implants because these are considered cosmetic items. Despite the cost, dental implants are very advantageous. For this reason, they are highly recommended.
