In order to replace a missing tooth with an implant, the first step is to place a thin titanium post in the jawbone. This titanium post will serve as the root of the replacement tooth. The bone will bond tightly to the post as it heals. This becomes a stable and strong support structure. Once the implant has fully healed, a small attachment is affixed to the top. Your clean, white replacement tooth, called a crown, will then be secured to this attachment.
Our highly-trained staff and cutting-edge imaging systems ensure that the entire process runs smoothly. We also know that it's important for our patients to be comfortable, so we provide a calm environment in which they can feel confident they're receiving the best treatment.
The dental implant procedure starts with a thorough examination and consultation. Our team of experts will evaluate and assess the number of teeth that need replacement and discuss your treatment goals. We understand the importance of unique and personalized care when it comes to your health and will work with you to develop a treatment plan that caters to your specific needs.
Computer imaging technology is used to plan the ideal placement of dental implants. By generating detailed 3D images of the patient's mouth, the dentist can accurately assess the available bone structure and determine the optimal location for the implant.
After your plan is created, we will place an implant post in the jawbone to ensure the strength of each implant and prevent any shifting or loosening over time. Once the process is complete, you will be able to enjoy improved stability and comfort while chewing or speaking.
The healing phase is when the implant will fuse with the jawbone. This process usually takes a few months. It is crucial to follow the instructions of your dentist during this period to ensure a successful integration with your new implant and long-term success!
The exact placement of the implant in healthy bone is crucial to its long-term success. A computerized imaging system ensures that the implant is placed in healthy bone. We will first use a bone graft to build up your bone mass if you've lost it. Our extensive training and expertise will help you achieve a healthy, strong implant.
