Dental Implants
Dental implants are permanent tooth-replacement solutions that anchor artificial teeth to the jawbone, restoring function, stability, and natural smile esthetics.
-
Natural Look and Feel
Dental implants are designed to look and feel like natural teeth. Crafted for durability and beauty, they restore your smile with confidence and stability for optimal oral health.
-
Durable and Lasting
Implants are a durable, long-term solution, designed to integrate with the jawbone and withstand daily function. With proper care, they can provide decades of performance.
-
Ideal Function
Dental implants restore full oral function by securely replacing missing teeth. Designed to mimic natural tooth roots, they provide stability for normal chewing, clear speech, and long-term comfort.
Our Dental Implant Treatment Process
Our implant experts plan and place dental implants with modern technology and techniques. Their knowledge and experience help them create natural-looking, long-lasting results that restore the function and appearance of your teeth. Whether you need a single implant or a full-mouth restoration, we’ll design a plan to fit your esthetic and health goals.
1. Evaluation and Planning
During your consultation, we will perform a comprehensive evaluation and examination of your mouth, along with digital X-rays. Using a CBCT scan, we examine your bone density to ensure you have the right amount of bone structure to support the implant(s). Any pre-work will also be done as needed, such as grafting or periodontal treatment.
2. Surgical Implantation
Once ready, the implant placement procedure is done. If any teeth need removed, we can perform an extraction before placing the implant. An implant post replaces the tooth root, which can typically be done in 30 minutes per implant. You will remain comfortable with local anesthesia, and sedation may be recommended for lengthier treatment.
3. Healing Period
Once your surgery is complete, the implant fuses with the surrounding bone structure in a process called osseointegration. Complete healing can take three to six months. During that time, it’s best to avoid cigarettes, vapes, or other tobacco products because they can slow healing. During healing, we place a temporary crown or bridge to maintain the appearance and function of your teeth.
4. Restoration and Maintenance
After healing, you will have a solid foundation for your new teeth. The temporaries are removed, and an abutment is attached to the implant post. Then the final implant restoration (typically a dental crown) is placed. For multiple missing teeth, a dental bridge may be recommended. Like natural teeth, dental implants depend on healthy gums and surrounding tooth structures for support, so good oral hygiene is needed. You should also keep up with your regular dental checkups to ensure implant longevity.
Dental Implant Advantages
- Securely anchored in the jawbone, providing excellent stability when speaking and eating.
- Help preserve jawbone density by stimulating natural bone structure.
- Designed as a long-term solution with proper care.
