Benefits of Dental Implants
Dental implants are the next best thing to your natural teeth. This makes implants a more convenient, durable, secure, and aesthetically pleasing option over traditional restorations. The numerous benefits of dental implants have made them the industry standard for tooth replacement!
Single Dental Implants
If you are missing a single tooth, an implant-supported crown may be the best solution. An implant-supported crown usually consists of three components: the implant post, the abutment (support structure), and the restoration. We may recommend an implant-supported crown in place of more traditional options, such as a conventional bridge or partial denture.
Full Arch Implants
There are several terms that describe replacing all your teeth using implants - full arch implants, AOX, fixed hybrids, implant supported dentures - they all refer to being able to restore your complete dentition using just a few implants per arch. Patients with ill-fitting dentures or multiple lost or compromised teeth can benefit from this approach. What we love about this approach: we can restore all your function, esthetics, and confidence with only a few implants, and because the procedure can be completed in just one visit, you get to leave with a brand new smile and never have to go without teeth.
The Dental Implant Recovery Process
The healing period for dental implants is roughly three to six months. This is so osseointegration can occur. The implants are fabricated from biocompatible titanium or zirconia materials, so they work well in conjunction with the body.
During the healing period, patients can decide whether they are happy with the shape, fit, and color of their new teeth and bite. Our dentist can make all the necessary changes to ensure your permanent teeth look exactly how you want.
