What Is a Dental Implant?

A dental implant is a reliable solution for replacing missing teeth by surgically placing an artificial tooth root into your jawbone. You can rely on a dental implant as a long-term solution that brings functionality back to your smile and restores oral health. Dental implants are made up of three main parts:

1. Implant Post: Our implant specialist will surgically place an implant post, made from body-safe materials like titanium, into your jawbone to replace your tooth's roots.
2. Abutment: This piece connects to the implant post above the gumline to secure your restorative piece.
3. Restorative Piece: Our dentist will craft a customized prosthetic restoration that securely attaches to your mouth for a natural-looking smile.

Am I a Good Candidate for a Dental Implant?

Any adult who has struggled with lost or severely damaged teeth may find that a dental implant could be a solution. Our dentist will confirm whether you qualify for the procedure with a comprehensive exam. You will need good dental and gum health and adequate jawbone density. If you don't meet those requirements, we can help you meet them. Our dentist provides pretreatments to help make your procedure as successful as possible. We can help with:

• Extractions: Severely damaged or infected teeth will need removal before we can place the implant post.
• Bone grafts: An implant post requires sufficient bone density to fuse stably, so bone grafting provides additional support for the implant post.

What the Implant Process Looks Like

When you come in for a consultation, our dentist will use advanced technology to thoroughly examine your teeth, gums, and jawbone to assess their condition. You will discuss your dental and medical history, goals, and what to expect from the procedure. Based on your situation, our dentist will provide you with your dental implant treatment options and work with you to decide which will suit your situation and help you get your desired outcome. We'll also coordinate pretreatments if necessary.

Once your oral health is in optimal shape, our specialist will precisely place the dental posts in your mouth. Then, you will have a period of recovery and healing, after which you'll return to our office and receive your customized restoration piece designed to blend naturally into your smile.

Your Dental Implant Options

Whichever type of implant-supported restoration you need, we're here to help. Each option we offer will blend seamlessly with and look natural in the context of your smile. Our dentist will review each type of restoration to help you determine the option that suits your situation. Some of the restorations we provide include:

• Crowns: If you have a single missing tooth, we can complete your smile with a single crown placement.
• Bridges: Three to four missing teeth in a row can use a bridge to fill the gap.
• Dentures: If you are missing most or all of your teeth, we can offer partial and full dentures to restore up to an entire arch of teeth.
