Single tooth replacement in Chennai

  • Many of us think that one missing tooth is not a problem, but it is not so.
  • Replacing even a single missing tooth is very important.
  • Because it can cause other oral issues. The rest of the teeth naturally shifts to the empty space, this can misalign your teeth leading to an improper bite.
  • Which can even cause TMJ(jaw joint) disorders.
  • The solution for this is replacing the single missing tooth.
  • It is a very simple procedure, after clinical examination and x-rays the implants are placed in the desired region under local anesthesia on the first day and a 3D digital impression(measurement) is done.
  • On the second day the crown is fixed.
  • Here is how we replace a single molar tooth with dental implants.
