Why Dental Implants Hurt - Tips on Avoiding Potential Pain

One of the questions I get asked a lot from dentists is why dental implants hurt. I have also been asked why they are painful, and how long they last. Here is what I have to say.

Dental Implants are actually a type of artificial tooth, much like your natural teeth. The difference is that the implant is designed to rest in your jaw bone, so it never has contact with your gums or your pocket bone (where your teeth come into contact with). This allows the dentist to place the fake tooth where you need it most: right where your real tooth would be, or even on the other side of your jaw if you had missing teeth.

So why do they hurt? It really depends on what procedure you go through and how your tooth is constructed. Most procedures go very smooth, but there are always some risks involved. Going in for a root canal treatment is certainly a risk because it involves entering your mouth and going in through your cheek and gum area to the actual root canal.

If the dentist succeeds in his or her procedure, they will get to the inside of your mouth. The problem is that there are small spaces that the tooth will need to fit into - spaces that the tooth roots can not fill. As long as the dentist is successful in filling these spaces, you will be fine. However, if he or she misses the spaces completely, you could end up having pain and infection as your tooth roots grow through your gums and into your jawbone.

So why does this pain occur? The reason is because your dentist forgot to prepare for the procedure. Typically, your dentist will inform you about what you need to do before he or she will allow you to have your tooth extracted, and also about what you need to expect afterwards. He or she will tell you to avoid anything that might cause you pain, and also to avoid biting your cheeks and chewing on your root canal. However, your dentist will forget to tell you about the pain that you will experience after the procedure is finished. This pain will occur because your dentist has failed to prepare for the root canal procedure.

What can you do about this? While you can ask your dentist to get root canal therapy to treat your teeth, chances are that this will be very costly. You may also be tempted to just ignore the pain, but ignoring it won't help. Your teeth will continue to hurt even after you have had the dental implants placed - it's just going to get worse until your crowns or dentures come in.

What Dental Insurance Covers Braces?

Doctors: This is an extremely common question asked around dental offices and commonly discussed in online forums as most folks have never had the opportunity to get braces such as those that are offered through insurance plans. As may be expected, most individuals are quite confused by the fact that there is such a thing as dental insurance and wonder if it will cover the cost of getting braces.

However, they can become very expensive if you want a very elaborate restoration job. Before you begin planning your treatment, it is important that you know what dental implants cost. Here is a breakdown of what you will pay in various procedures and at what cost. Most dental implants are considered minor.
