Implants

We understand the impact of missing teeth on your oral health and self-confidence. Dental implants offer a reliable and long-lasting solution for replacing missing teeth. This is an overview of dental implants, their benefits, and how they can help restore your smile and functionality.

Dental implants are titanium posts that are surgically placed into the jawbone to serve as artificial tooth roots. These posts provide a stable foundation for the attachment of dental restorations such as crowns, bridges, or dentures.

Initial Consultation: During your first visit, our dental team will conduct a comprehensive exam, including 3D X-Rays. This helps our team better manage your oral health and determine whether you are a suitable candidate for dental implants. We will also discuss your treatment goals and answer any questions or concerns you may have.

Implant Placement: Our skilled dentist will surgically place the titanium implant posts into the jawbone beneath the gum-line. This procedure is typically performed under local anesthesia, ensuring your comfort throughout the process. Over time, the implants fuse with the jawbone through a process called osseointegration, providing a strong and stable foundation.

Healing and Integration: Following implant placement, a healing period of a few months is necessary to allow the implants to integrate and bond with the jawbone. During this time, temporary restorations may be provided to maintain aesthetics and functionality.

Abutment Placement: Once the implants have fully integrated, a small connector called an abutment is attached to the implant posts. The abutment serves as a connection point between the implant and the dental restoration.

Restoration Production and Placement: Digital Molds of your teeth and gums are taken with our 3D Scanner.  A custom dental restoration, such as a crown, bridge, or denture can then be made. This restoration is designed to match the color, shape, and size of your natural teeth, ensuring a seamless and natural-looking result. The restoration is then securely attached to the abutment, completing the dental implant process.

Eating Functionality: Dental implants provide a stable and strong foundation for biting and chewing, allowing you to enjoy your favorite foods without limitations. They function and feel like natural teeth, restoring your ability to speak and smile confidently.

Longevity and Durability: With proper care, dental implants can last a lifetime, making them a cost-effective solution in the long run. Unlike other tooth replacement options, implants do not require alteration or support from adjacent teeth, preserving their integrity.

Jawbone Health: Dental implants stimulate the jawbone, preventing bone loss and maintaining its strength and density. This helps preserve your overall oral health and facial structure.

Convenience and Comfort: Dental implants eliminate the need for removable dentures or bridges, offering a permanent and hassle-free solution. They do not require special adhesives or removal for cleaning, providing a comfortable and convenient solution.

Denture Mobility: Dental implants may also be used as a great method to keep loose dentures in place.
