Dental Implants

What are Dental Implants?
The dental implant simply replaces your natural tooth root. The root of the tooth is responsible for firmly establishing the natural tooth in the oral cavity. All tooth replacement options, with the exception of dental implants, fail to protect the integrity of the surrounding jawbone. Without your natural tooth or an implant, the bone continues to diminish in the area of the tooth loss. Continued bone loss can lead to the deterioration of adjacent teeth, and change in facial structure and features.

Dental implants not only preserve and stimulate the surrounding bone but they also provide the platform for the dental crown, thereby restoring your smile. The dental implant (multiple implants can be placed at once if necessary) is positioned directly into the bone, where it will integrate with the bone tissue to give greater stability to the implanted tooth. After approximately four months the implant(s) will be ready to be restored. Depending on your specific needs this can be a single crown, an implant supported bridge, or an implant supported denture.

Dental Implant Surgery
You are a potential candidate for dental implant surgery if you are in good overall health, and you have a stable jawbone. Our dentist asks questions about the medical history of the patient before performing dental implant surgery, as certain chronic and uncontrollable health conditions interfere with the healing after surgery.

A dental implant is a titanium post (like a tooth root) that is surgically positioned into the jawbone beneath the gum line that allows your dentist to mount replacement teeth or a bridge into that area.

Implant Supported Denture

An implant-supported denture is a type of overdenture that is supported by and attached to implants. A regular denture rests on the gums, and is not supported by implants.

Full Mouth Implant Surgery

If you are missing all of your teeth, an implant-supported full bridge or full denture can replace them.
