Dental Implants

What are Dental Implants?

• Dental implants are advanced tooth replacement solutions that offer a permanent and natural-looking option for individuals with missing teeth. They consist of small titanium implants that are surgically inserted into the jawbone, acting as artificial tooth roots. These implants provide a stable foundation for the attachment of custom-made dental crowns, bridges, or dentures.
• The dental implant process typically involves several stages. After a thorough evaluation and treatment planning, the implants are placed into the jawbone during a minor surgical procedure. Over time, the surrounding bone fuses with the implants through a process called osseointegration, creating a strong and durable bond.
• Once the implants have fully integrated with the bone, abutments are attached to them. These abutments serve as connectors between the implants and the prosthetic teeth. Customized dental crowns, bridges, or dentures are then securely attached to the abutments, providing a natural-looking and functional replacement for the missing teeth.
• Dental implants offer numerous benefits. They restore the ability to bite, chew, and speak comfortably, similar to natural teeth. Dental implants also help maintain facial structure and prevent bone loss that can occur with missing teeth. With proper care and maintenance, dental implants can last for many years, providing a long-term solution for tooth loss.
• It’s important to have a consult with our dentists to determine if dental implants are suitable for your specific dental needs. They can provide a more detailed assessment, discuss the treatment process, and answer any questions or concerns you may have.
