What are Dental Implants?
Some of the most common tooth replacements are removable and only restore the crowns of missing teeth (i.e., dentures and dental bridges). However, dental implants offer a new form of restorative care. With titanium posts that fit into the jawbone and provide the same kind of stimulation as regular tooth roots, they serve as the foundational support for custom-made crowns, bridges, and dentures.
The 4-Step Dental Implant Process
- Initial Dental Implant Consultation – It’s important to determine the state of your oral and overall health before moving forward with dental implants. During a consultation, we will evaluate your jawbone and decide if additional treatments are required, such as bone grafting, gum disease treatment, or tooth extraction.
- Dental Implant Surgery – Since we place dental implants in-house, you don’t have to worry about receiving a referral for the surgical aspect of treatment. We will numb your mouth before placing each implant post in its designated space before closing the gum tissue and applying protective healing caps over each surgical site.
- Dental Implant Osseointegration/Abutment – When returning home to recover, you will need to allow 4-6 months for your implants to fuse with your jawbone (osseointegration). Once this is finished, we will position your metal abutments on top of your implants so that your new restoration will hold firmly in place.
- Delivery of Dental Implant Restoration(s) – The placement of your custom restoration is the final step, which will allow you to begin experiencing the many benefits of your new smile. We’ll make sure your new teeth look natural and feel comfortable before you leave.
Benefits of Dental Implants
When looking at the benefits dental implants provide, you’ll quickly learn there is a reason they are considered far superior to other tooth replacement solutions. Not only do they offer greater stability and permanence, but they allow you to freely eat the foods you love, enjoy better oral health, and they are proven to be more cost-effective in the long run than regular bridges and dentures. You don’t need to buy dental adhesives or special cleaning products, and you don’t have to worry about replacing them every few years. Instead, they can last 30+ years with the right level of care.
