What Are Dental Implants?
Dental implants are titanium posts surgically placed into your jawbone to replace missing teeth. They provide a permanent, natural-looking solution that functions like your real teeth.
Why Choose Dental Implants?
- Permanent Solution: Unlike dentures, implants are fixed and don't need replacement
- Natural Appearance: Designed to look and feel like your natural teeth
- Preserve Jawbone: Prevent bone loss that occurs with missing teeth
- Improved Function: Eat, speak, and smile with confidence
- No Impact on Adjacent Teeth: Unlike bridges, implants don't require grinding down healthy teeth
The Dental Implant Procedure
Understanding the process helps ease any anxiety about the procedure:
Step 1: Initial Consultation
Our expert dentists will examine your oral health, take X-rays, and discuss your medical history to determine if you're a good candidate for implants.
Step 2: Implant Placement
Under local anesthesia, the titanium implant post is surgically placed into your jawbone. This procedure is typically painless and takes about 1-2 hours per implant.
Step 3: Osseointegration (Healing Period)
Over 3-6 months, the implant fuses with your jawbone in a process called osseointegration. During this time, you'll have a temporary crown.
Step 4: Abutment Placement
Once healed, an abutment (connector) is attached to the implant to hold the crown.
Step 5: Crown Placement
Finally, your custom-made crown is attached, completing your new tooth!
