What is a Dental Implant

A dental implant is a synthetic tooth root shaped like a post that is surgically placed into the jawbone. It is typically made of titanium—an ideal material for bonding with human bone. This implant serves as a sturdy foundation for a replacement tooth, which can be either permanently attached or removable. Permanent implants tend to be more stable and feel more like natural teeth.

The best candidates for dental implants are non-smokers in good oral health, with sufficient jawbone density and healthy gums free from gum disease.

Implants are versatile and can accommodate various needs. If you are missing one tooth, a single implant with one replacement tooth will suffice. For multiple adjacent missing teeth, strategically placed implants can support a permanent bridge. If you have lost all your teeth, a full bridge or denture can be permanently anchored with several implants.

Unlike conventional bridges and dentures, which are not anchored to the bone and can be unstable, dental implants provide a more secure solution. They not only look natural but also function like real teeth, offering stronger biting force.

Because implants do not rely on neighboring teeth for support, they do not compromise the health of your natural teeth. While bridges typically last seven to ten years, especially after root canals, implants are designed to last a lifetime.

Treat your replacement teeth as you would your natural teeth. They require daily brushing and flossing as well as regular checkups. The better care you provide, the longer your implants will last.

Other Implant Services

Following the loss of upper back teeth, the sinuses may enlarge, complicating implant placement. A sinus lift augmentation restores the sinus cavity to its original size and replaces lost bone. This graft typically takes nine to twelve months to heal before implants can be placed.

If there is insufficient bone in the ideal implant site, bone may need to be harvested from another area of your mouth (often the chin or wisdom tooth area) and grafted into the deficient site.

When a tooth must be removed due to infection, bone loss often occurs around the infected tooth. Bone grafting can be performed simultaneously with tooth extraction to facilitate future dental implant placement.

Our advanced software allows us to evaluate your dental CT scan in three dimensions for optimal bone quality and location. This ensures precise placement of dental implants and facilitates collaboration with your restorative dentist for ideal results.

After completing your dental implant restoration, maintaining cleanliness in the area is crucial to prevent infection. Just like natural teeth, implants can accumulate plaque and tartar. Dental cleaning is necessary to keep your implants healthy. The time interval for these dental cleanings will be determined by your individual needs.
