Westchester County Dentist Is Now Offering Dental Implants

    YONKERS, NY, September 26, 2013 /24-7PressRelease/ -- When people lose teeth, sometimes they lose confidence in their overall appearance. They stop smiling and may even try to avoid close encounters with other people. Many believe that their only option is to get a set of dentures or to simply live without the tooth. Dr. Ira Morrow, DMD, PC a dentist in Yonkers, NY wants patients to know that that's simply not true thanks to some major innovations in dental technology.

Patients can now get dental implants to replace their natural teeth. Unlike dentures, which must be removed frequently, dental implants are actually installed in the mouth and do not come out unless removed by a dental professional. They look just like natural pearly teeth and can last a lifetime with proper care.

A dental implant is basically an artificial tooth connected to a screw that a dentist gently installs into your gums. The ideal patient already has sufficient bone in the gums that can help support the new implant, but if necessary in some cases a bone graft can be done to help keep the implant in place.

The process is fairly simple and can be completed in just a few visits. Westchester County dentist Dr. Morrow takes an impression of the pattern of the mouth to design a custom tooth, creates the tooth, and then sets an appointment to install it in the mouth. Maintaining pristine oral health is crucial after receiving an implant. Once installed and completely healed the patient can treat the dental implant like a natural tooth -- brush it, floss next to it and sleep with it every night.

"Many of my patients are happy with the results after receiving a dental implant. In the past they believed that the only option for missing teeth was a denture, but dental implants have now given them back the comfort of permanent teeth," Dr. Ira Morrow, a Westchester Country dentist, explains.

Patients who are insecure about missing teeth or have problems, eating or speaking due to tooth loss are encouraged to contact Dr. Morrow for a consultation for dental implants at http://www.yonkersgreatsmiles.com.
