What Are Dental Implants?
Dental implants are the ideal tooth replacement option because they mimic the look and feel of natural teeth. The post, surgically implanted directly into the supporting bone tissue, replaces the root of a natural tooth. An abutment screws into the post, providing a customized connection where the restoration, usually a crown or bridge, will sit. These three parts create the chewing function, durability, longevity, and natural appearance that make dental implants an unbeatable solution to tooth loss.
Benefits of Dental Implants
Implants are the most permanent solution for people who have missing teeth, allowing you to enjoy your life without worrying about your smile. Some of the benefits of implants include the following:
- Helps keep nearby teeth stable
- Restores the appearance and confidence to smile and speak
- Helps enhance quality of life
- Assists in preventing the jawbone from shrinking due to loss of bone
- Restores ability to chew and enjoy food
The Dental Implant Procedure
Dental implant surgery can vary depending on the strength of the jawbone. If the jawbone is weakened due to several missing teeth, the procedure can include:
- 1. An initial consultation and assessment.
- 2. Possible grafting if the jawbone is too soft or not thick enough. Grafting includes preparing the jawbone and bulking it up to withstand the chewing action of the mouth.
- 3. Putting the dental implant in place, which will serve as the tooth's anchor.
- 4. Allowing for the healing and growth period as the surrounding bone connects with the implant.
- 5. Placing the abutment and the tooth.
Are You a Candidate for Dental Implants?
The procedure can be right for you if:
- 1. You have one or several missing teeth.
- 2. You have sufficient bone for a secure implant, or you can have a bone graft.
- 3. You want a more permanent solution than dentures.
Several procedures can replace missing teeth. From bridges to single and full dental implants, we can find the right option for you.
Versatile Options for Every Tooth Replacement Need
A single dental implant can replace one missing tooth or individual missing teeth in separate mouth areas. Because each crown looks and feels like a natural tooth, your restorations will blend seamlessly into the rest of your smile.
Single dental implants prevent further damage to the rest of your natural teeth by stabilizing your bite, making them a wise investment to help you avoid additional expensive treatments.
Dental bridges consist of several false teeth fused together into a single restoration to replace multiple teeth in one area. Because we can replace many teeth with fewer implant posts, bridges are a great approach to make dental implants more affordable and minimize the surgical phase of your treatment.
If you’re tired of struggling with traditional dentures that slip, shift, or rub and leave uncomfortable sores, implant-supported dentures might be a great solution. With just a few implant posts, we can create stable points of connection where a modified denture can snap into place. Implant-supported dentures have superior stability and chewing power compared to traditional dentures.
Full mouth dental implants are the gold standard solution to complete tooth loss. A full arch dental bridge will be securely and permanently anchored onto a few strategically placed implant posts, making this the closest thing to having a full set of your own healthy teeth again!
Because they are permanently fixed, full mouth dental implants are made from stronger, denser, more durable materials that look and feel more like natural tooth enamel. You’ll be able to eat any food without limitations and smile confidently for decades.
What Is the
Dental Implant Process?
Dental implants are a versatile solution to tooth loss that can be tailored to address your needs and smile goals. The first step in creating your custom dental implant treatment plan is a consultation, where we will discuss your concerns and goals for how you hope dental implants can improve your quality of life.
We will discuss your dental concerns, smile goals, and medical history. If you’re a good candidate for dental implants, we’ll collect detailed measurements and digital diagnostic images to create the foundation of your new smile design. We will customize every detail of your smile design, from the shape and color of each tooth to how your new teeth match your facial structure and gum and lip line.
As with every procedure at NOVA Dental Anesthesia, you’ll rest comfortably with safe and effective dental sedation [LINK TO SEDATION DENTISTRY] under the watchful eye of our certified anesthesiologists. If you need tooth extractions, we may be able to place grafting material and implant posts in the same appointment.
In other cases, we’ll make a small incision in the gums to access the underlying bone and place your implants into predetermined spots within your jawbone. Once placed, we will attach an abutment connector and affix your temporary restoration. This temporary restoration will allow you to enjoy all the benefits of your new smile immediately, meaning you will never go without teeth.
Over the next several months, your dental implant posts will fuse with the surrounding bone tissue during osseointegration. Most of your healing process will be very comfortable, and most patients report tolerable discomfort for the first few days.
Once your mouth has healed, you’ll return to our office for updated scans and to have your final restorations placed. This final restoration is hand-crafted from the highest-quality material and built to last. With proper at-home care and regular checkups, your dental implants have the potential to last an entire lifetime!
