What are Dental Implants?

Dental Implants are titanium screws that are a great alternative for natural tooth replacement because they are strong and stable and look, feel, fit and function like a natural tooth. Titanium is a strong, lightweight, and durable metal that’s resistant to corrosion. It is also biocompatible which means it integrates well with gum tissue and fuses with human bone. Our office uses the best quality implants on the market, to ensure our impressive track record of extremely high success rates of implant osseointegration and restoration.

Most patients who are missing teeth are good candidates for tooth replacement utilizing dental implants. Our Surgical Specialist and Restorative Prosthodontist plan the case using our 3D advanced technology and guided implant surgery, as well as other high-tech methods, to make the process faster, safer and minimize any risk of complications.

Single vs. Multiple vs. Full Arch Implant Options

The amount of implants that a patient can have placed in their mouth varies depending on the patients individual treatment needs. If you are missing one tooth, just one implant can be placed in that area. If you are missing multiple teeth in one or more areas, we can treatment plan to give back the chewing efficacy of the patient and provide occlusal stability. If you are missing a full arch of teeth, or if your teeth are compromised and non-restorable and need to be extracted, All-on-X is the best treatment option. Our office is equipped to perform

Most importantly, fixed dental implant full arch restorations, All-on-X, return the full function and stability back to the patients giving them the freedom to eat, speak and smile with full confidence.

IMPROVED BITE AND OCCLUSION: Traditional dentures and bridges are not fixed into the patient’s mouth and they come with certain food restrictions. Dental implants remove dietary inhibitions and allow patients the freedom to bite and chew everything just like with natural teeth.

PRESERVATION OF EXISTING TEETH: Dental implants are embedded directly into the jawbone which eliminates any stresses that may be added to the surrounding natural teeth in standard dental treatments. The metal posts serve as placeholders and promote bone growth which eliminates the risk of other teeth shifting out of place.

FULL COMFORT AND LONGEVITY: Standard dental procedures like partial or complete dentures and dental bridges can cause soreness in the gums, tooth sensitivity and discomfort. Patients that go the implant route feel so comfortable with their restorations that they do not feel the implants in their mouth and they do not feel any soreness, sensitivity or discomfort. Implants can last several decades or the rest of your life with simple and proper dental care. Standard treatments like bridges and dentures need to be replaced every 10 years or so, on average. Implants are a long-term cost saving measure while providing the best investment in yourself!
