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.
