Keep reading to find out more about what this could mean for tomorrow\u2019s smiles! \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Dental Implants: A Comprehensive Replacement<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">A dental implant is a titanium post that your dentist or oral surgeon places beneath the gum line to take the place of a missing tooth\u2019s root. Here, the jawbone fuses together with the post to create a sturdy foundation for the crown, bridge, or denture that is affixed on top. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Dental implants can last for many years when cared for properly, and they also offer a host of benefits to oral and overall health. Patients who are eligible for the implant procedure should strongly consider this comprehensive option &#8212; and thanks to new research and advances in the field, it looks like more and more people will be eligible for dental implants in the future. <\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">About the Latest Research<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Implant dentistry is a hot topic for dental research now, and the future of implants has never looked brighter. Researchers from the Autonomous University of Baja California (on the east coast of Mexico) mixed polymers with ceramic to produce a light consistency for the implant material. They then simulated the forces of chewing to make sure the impact was distributed over the implant and not the bone. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The results were positive. The researchers said this news looks promising for people who need dental implants but may not be able to afford titanium posts, which come at a higher cost than the polymer and ceramic mixture would. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The results of this research were published on ScienceDaily.com. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">What It Means for You<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Right now, titanium implants are the premiere option for implant dentistry. But if research like this continues to grow, we can see a future with dental implants that are affordable for just about everyone. That\u2019s great news for smiles everywhere! <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Many patients who are dealing with missing teeth are eligible for dental implants in 75227.
