The Ultimate in Tooth Replacement

What are Dental Implants?

Dental implants (or tooth implants) are surgically placed titanium posts that connect to the jawbone to replace missing teeth. They replace natural tooth roots, providing a stable and durable foundation for replacement teeth, including crowns, bridges, or dentures. Dental implants offer a natural-looking, long-lasting solution for restoring your smile and oral function.

Thorough, Personalized Treatment

What is the Dental Implants Procedure Like?

The dental implant procedure typically involves several steps:

  1. Consultation & Planning: We'll evaluate your oral health, take X-rays, and create a personalized treatment plan.
  2. Implant Placement: The post is surgically implanted into the jawbone, promoting bone growth for a solid and secure foundation.
  3. Healing & Osseointegration: A healing period is necessary as osseointegration takes place.
  4. Abutment Placement: An abutment is used to connect the implant post to the replacement tooth.
  5. Restoration: A custom-made crown, bridge, or denture is attached to the abutment, completing the restoration.
  6. Bone Grafting: In some cases, bone grafting may be necessary to ensure there is enough healthy bone to properly support the implant. This procedure involves adding bone to areas where it has been lost.

Am I a Candidate for Dental Implants?

Most adults in good oral and overall health and who have lost a single tooth or are missing multiple teeth are candidates for tooth implants. However, certain factors, such as smoking, uncontrolled diabetes, or inadequate jawbone, may affect your candidacy. Our dentists will perform a dental exam and evaluate your specific needs, medical history, remaining teeth, gum tissue, and bone structure to determine if dental implant treatment is the right choice for you. If, for any reason, dental implant surgery is not ideal for you, your dentist will help you select a preferred tooth replacement option.

Recover With Confidence

Dental Implants Recovery

The recovery time for dental implant surgery varies depending on the complexity of the procedure and whether bone grafting is necessary.

For a few days after the surgery, you may experience some swelling and discomfort. Our dentists will provide detailed post-operative instructions to ensure a smooth and comfortable recovery.

The healing process can take several months, and you'll have follow-up appointments with our dentists to monitor your progress. Once fully healed, a night guard will also be recommended.
