A dental implant is a surgical component that interfaces with the jaw bone to support a dental prosthesis such as a crown, bridge, or denture. The process of getting a dental implant typically involves several stages, and it may span several months to allow for proper healing and integration of the implant with the surrounding bone. The process includes:
A thorough assessment of your oral health, a 3D X-ray, and a discussion of your medical history will allow us to determine if you are a suitable candidate for dental implants.
This personalized treatment plan includes details such as the number of implants needed, the type of prosthesis (crown, bridge, or denture), and the overall timeline for the procedure.
If there are damaged or decayed teeth in the implant site, they will need to be extracted before the implant procedure can begin.
If there is insufficient bone volume in the implant area, a bone graft may be required to augment the bone. This step helps ensure that the implant has a stable foundation for integration.
During the surgical procedure, the implant site in the jaw bone is prepared and the dental implant is placed securely. The implant is typically made of biocompatible materials, such as titanium, that encourages bone integration.
After implant placement, a healing period is necessary for osseointegration. This is the process where the bone fuses with the surface of the implant, providing stability and support. This period typically spans 3-4 months.
Once osseointegration is complete, impressions are taken to create a custom-made dental prosthesis, such as a crown, bridge, or denture. The prosthesis is designed to match the natural teeth in color, shape, and function.
The final step involves attaching the custom prosthesis to the implant. The dentist will ensure proper fit, function, and aesthetics.
Regular follow-up appointments are scheduled to monitor the implant’s success, oral health, and address any concerns.
It’s important to note that individual cases may vary, and the timeline and specific steps can be adjusted based on the patient’s unique circumstances. A consultation with one of our dentists is recommended to get personalized information and guidance based on your specific needs.
Why Choose Implants?
An implant, a man-made replacement for a natural tooth, serves as a root replacement and is surgically placed into the jawbone. Unlike removable solutions, implants are fixed, offering longevity and natural function. From single implants to implant-supported prostheses, we tailor solutions to meet your specific needs.
An Oral Health Investment
Despite having a higher initial expense, dental implants prove to be a cost-efficient solution when compared to alternative tooth replacement options. With diligent maintenance, dental implants represent a long-term investment in your oral health, capable of lasting for decades, if not a lifetime.
Hygiene for Implant Success
Consistent hygiene is key to implant success. Our experienced team emphasizes regular dental visits to maintain optimal oral health, safeguarding the longevity and support of your implant.
