Dental implants have revolutionized the field of dentistry, offering a reliable and long-lasting solution for missing teeth. The implant process begins with the placement of the dental implant, a crucial step that sets the foundation for a natural-looking and functional restoration.
During the implant placement procedure, a small titanium screw, or post, is surgically inserted into the jawbone. This post serves as an artificial tooth root, mimicking the function of a natural tooth root by stimulating the surrounding bone tissue. This stimulation helps to prevent bone loss and maintains the integrity of the jawbone over time. The implant provides a stable foundation for the replacement tooth or teeth that will be attached to it.
Following the placement of the implant, a period of healing is necessary to allow for osseointegration, the process by which the implant fuses with the surrounding bone tissue. This integration is essential for the stability and longevity of the implant. Patients are provided with post-operative instructions to promote proper healing and minimize discomfort during this period.
Once osseointegration is complete, our dentist will work with you to create a custom-made implant restoration. This restoration, which may be a crown, bridge or denture, is designed to closely resemble natural teeth in both appearance and function. The result is a seamless smile that restores confidence and allows for normal eating, speaking and oral hygiene habits.
Before proceeding with implant placement, our dentist will conduct a comprehensive examination to assess your oral health and determine if any additional treatments are necessary. This may include addressing issues such as gum disease, tooth decay or insufficient bone density through procedures like bone grafting.
