If you\u2019re considering this route for replacing your\nmissing teeth, then there are 6 terms that you should know the meaning of\nfirst. Find out what they are as you continue reading!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">#1 \u2013 Dental Implant<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The best place to start the discovery process is with the\nterm \u2018dental implant\u2019 itself. It refers to a cylinder-shaped titanium post that\nis attached to the jawbone. Through this insertion process, the fixture mimics\nthe natural stability and smile aesthetics that come along with a normal set of\nteeth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After the implant is placed, you\u2019ll need three to six months\nto sufficiently heal. Then, you can have an abutment placed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">#2 \u2013 Abutment<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>An integral part of the implant placement process is the\naddition of the abutment. Also made from titanium, it acts as an anchor that is\nscrewed into the implant and allows the final restoration to be attached in a\nsecure manner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">#3 \u2013 Restoration<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A restoration is a prosthetic fixture that is similar to the\noriginal tooth in both appearance and function. In most cases, the material\nused is porcelain because of its strength, durability and natural look.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">#4 \u2013 Crown<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If a single tooth is missing, then a dental crown can be\nused as a restoration. The porcelain fixture is securely attached to the\nabutment to allow for proper chewing, to prevent any shifting of the other\nteeth and to provide an aesthetic boost.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">#5 \u2013 Bridge<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In situations where three or more consecutive teeth are missing,\na bridge can be utilized. It consists of a series of porcelain crowns affixed\nto one fixture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">#6 \u2013 Dentures <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>When a full arch or a complete set of teeth are missing, dentures\nare required to restore a normal smile. The appliances consist of porcelain\nteeth that are affixed to a resin base. However, unlike traditional dentures,\nthe implant-retained option provides greater security and longevity by them\nbeing snapped or clamped into position.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now that you\u2019re better versed in the language of dental\nimplants, you can feel more comfortable about moving forward with finally having\nyour missing teeth replaced and your smile restored. The first step is to reach\nout to your local dentist to schedule a visit so your current condition can be\nassessed, and a full treatment plan can be developed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>By taking this initial step, you can get on the road to once\nagain leading a happy and fulfilling life!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>About the Author<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dr. Eric Buck is a graduate of The Ohio State University College of Dentistry.
