While both can do tremendous things for our overall well-being, sometimes accidents happen. According to the World Health Organization,\u00a0 approximately <a href=\"https:\/\/www.who.int\/news-room\/fact-sheets\/detail\/oral-health\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">20% of people will experience some sort of trauma to their teeth<\/a> at some point in their lives. <br \/><br \/>Unfortunately, sometimes those accidents result in mouth trauma and tooth loss. If this happens, our number one goal is to restore the health and aesthetics of the mouth. Dental implants are often recommended to accomplish this goal.<\/p>\r\n<h3>What is a dental implant?\u00a0<\/h3>\r\n<p>In the simplest terms, a <a href=\"https:\/\/pumphreyperio.com\/services\/dental-implants\/\">dental implant<\/a> is a permanent replacement for a lost tooth. The implant is placed in the jaw, where it will fuse with surrounding tissue. This acts as an artificial root. Next, a crown is placed on top to create a replacement artificial tooth. <br \/><br \/>If you have had trauma to the mouth or are missing one or more teeth and would like to consider implants, please <a href=\"https:\/\/pumphreyperio.com\/contact-us\/\">reach out to our office<\/a>. We\u2019ll evaluate your situation and discuss potential options that would work for your individual case. <br \/><br \/><strong><em>Factors that may be taken into consideration are:<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li>The extent and severity of the trauma<\/li>\r\n<li>How long ago the trauma occurred<\/li>\r\n<li>Your age<\/li>\r\n<li>Any underlying health conditions you may have<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<p>We believe that it\u2019s important for you to have healthy teeth and a mouth that is both functional and helps you to feel confident.
