Teeth implant, did anyone do it ?!


Question: Teeth implant, did anyone do it !?
In my case the front teeth are better protected but the ones for chewing will be bad by my thirties!. Plus the wisdom teeth are so annoying!.
I dont like the idea dentures or prothesis bridges!.

Did anyone do implant, did it hurt, for how many teeth and what is your experience !?

Thank you so much for sharing these experiences!Www@Answer-Health@Com

Hi Bob,

I'm 37!. I had 14 extractions and 11 implants done, of which 2 failed!. I also had all my other teeth capped!. As you can guess my teeth too were very bad!.

I'm very happy with the results, very very much!.

What hurts the most is not the surgery but two other things:
(1) the muscles, when they get used at chewing again
(2) the nerves, whenever the bite is off!.

My experience was wonderful because:
(1) I chose a dentist who is an oral surgeon AND an implantologist!.!. that means that he can treat failures as well and recognize complications early on;
(2) the dentist I selected has a sense of aesthetic that matches mine (so I'm very happy with the results!);
(3) I can chew with no worries now!.

However, implants and crowns require scrupulous oral hygiene in order not to fail, and if you have bruxism (like I do) you might need to take extra precautions!. The link below is to a place with all the equipment you will need when getting implants done!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Have 6 of them!.

As for the operation its rather quick and painless however it can seriously hurt for some hours afterwards after that painkillers should take away most of it, can't say its a pleasant experience though!.

And the result!? Well it's decent to be honest got 2 in my upper jaw and those look alot better than the 4 in the lower (you can see a bit of the metal they are attached to) but overall it was that or no teeth so can't say I regret it!.

EDIT:

On a sidenote though I live in a country with public healthcare so I didn't pay a dime for any of this so might not be the best person to reflect on wheter it was worth it or not since there would have been no reason for me not to do it!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

How do you know by your thirties your molars are going to need replaced!? Do you see a dentist regularly!? Wisdom teeth can easily be removed by an oral surgeon!. Implants are a great way to replace missing teeth however in the US it is an investment and not many insurance companies provide any coverage for them!. I can tell you that if the back teeth protect your front teeth from damage so don't let them go bad!. As my boss, a dentist says, an implant is a man-made root but the best dental implant is your own tooth root!. My husband had two implants placed up top and had no problems, a little pain afterwards until it healed!. Whatever you decide to do, Good luck!Www@Answer-Health@Com
