Dental implants the modern marvel
Dental implants are considered a modern marvel and provide an excellent solution for anyone suffering from teeth loss. They can be used to provide replacement teeth for patients who require anything from a single tooth to a full new set. Many people would think that dental implants are something new, but this is a misconception. The reason for their vast popularity in recent times is that the treatment has such a high success rate and reliability. The idea itself stems from ancient times.
The first record of a dental implant, of sorts, comes from a discovery of a Mayan woman’s mandible, which happened to contain three tooth shaped shells which had been inserted into empty sockets. Bone had grown around the shells, showing that they had functioned as replacement teeth when the woman was alive. This is not an isolated case. Evidence of early dental implants has been found in Egypt, throughout Central and South America, in the Middle East where they were made from ivory, and in the jawbone of a Roman soldier, who had an iron dental implant. As fascinating as these cases are, none of the actual treatments sound very well executed or desirable. It is little wonder that dental implants have recently re-emerged, this time with valid and scientifically research methods.
At OneSolution® Dental Implant Centers we offer all types of dental implants; whatever is best to provide you with effective treatment for your tooth loss. We especially endorse the Teeth In One Day solution, which has proven to be highly successful and non-invasive. A single tooth implant is recommended when you have lost only one or two teeth, say in an accident, but for edentulous patients, the Teeth In One Day provides a full arch of replacements with just 4 implants.
