Many patients facing dental implant treatment wonder about the safety of the procedure and the materials used. The idea of placing a titanium post or screw in the body — particularly an area like the jawbone — can give anyone pause.
Drs. Shery and Ali Mansouri of Serene Dental Center in Irvine want to assure patients that titanium dental implants are very safe. They do not put patients at risk of adverse reactions.
Not only is titanium safe, it is also durable and dependable. Titanium materials have been used in dentistry and other areas of medicine, such as orthopedic surgery, for decades with great success because of these qualities.
The body accepts titanium very well. It is a biocompatible material, meaning it is not harmful to living tissue. The body doesn’t reject titanium, and won’t develop an infection when a titanium piece is placed. The titanium is also resistant to bacteria. Titanium is able to exist within the body without corroding, decaying or developing another complication.
Dental implant treatment is not without risk. The safety and success of titanium implants depend heavily on the experience and skill of the dentist placing them. An inexperienced dentist may position or install the implant incorrectly, causing complications or possibly even implant failure.
The best way to protect yourself against these and other risks is to select an experienced dentist, like Dr. Shery and Dr. Ali Mansouri of Serene Dental Center, to handle your implant treatment.
