Reclaim Your Natural Smile
Dental implants are the most advanced and permanent solution for replacing missing teeth. A small titanium post is surgically placed into the jawbone, acting as a strong foundation for an artificial tooth (crown). Whether you are missing a single tooth or need a full mouth restoration, implants function and feel exactly like your natural teeth.
Treatment Details
The Process
- Comprehensive Assessment: 3D scans and X-rays to assess bone density and plan the implant placement.
- Surgical Placement: The titanium implant post is surgically placed into the jawbone under local anesthesia.
- Osseointegration: A healing period of 3 to 6 months is required for the jawbone to fuse completely with the titanium post.
- Abutment Placement: A connector piece (abutment) is attached to the implant to hold the new tooth.
- Crown Fixation: A custom-milled permanent crown is secured onto the abutment, completing the restoration.
Advantages
- Prevents bone loss by stimulating the jawbone exactly like a natural tooth root.
- Does not require the alteration or grinding down of adjacent healthy teeth.
- Functions, feels, and looks identical to natural teeth.
Disadvantages
- Requires a surgical procedure and a lengthy healing timeline.
- Higher initial financial investment compared to traditional bridges or dentures.
Durability
The titanium implant post is designed to be a permanent, lifetime solution. The attached prosthetic crown typically lasts 10 to 15 years depending on wear and tear.
