subject: Dental implants are the choice of today [print this page] When we lose a tooth the bone does not get any stimulation and consequently it starts shrinking away. However, when dental implants are placed in areas that have no teeth, the bone area gets stimulated again. This prevents a long- term bone loss in that region. Dental implants score high on the hygiene factor also. Individual implants make it easier to access in- between teeth. This enables the daily normal dental routine of brushing and flossing and in a way improves oral hygiene. The rate of success of dental implants is quite high and chances of failures or complications are rare.
