Dental Implants

What is Dental Implants?

Dental implants are artificial tooth roots made of strong materials like titanium. They are surgically placed into the jawbone to provide a sturdy foundation for replacement teeth. These replacement teeth can be either fixed or removable and are designed to match your natural teeth in appearance and function. Dental implants are a reliable and durable solution for people who have lost teeth due to injury, decay, or other reasons, helping to restore both their smile and confidence. This method not only restores the functionality and appearance of natural teeth but also helps preserve the jawbone structure and prevent bone loss. Dental implants can support single crowns, bridges, or even full dentures, offering a long-lasting and reliable option for dental restoration.

Process of Dental Implant

Initial Consultation and Treatment Planning

The dentist conducts a thorough examination, including X-rays and 3D imaging, to assess the condition of the jawbone and plan the implant procedure.

Implant Placement

The dental implant is surgically inserted into the jawbone. If necessary, tooth extraction and bone grafting are performed beforehand. Local anesthesia is used to minimize discomfort.

Surgery and Healing

The implant is left to heal and integrate with the jawbone, a process that typically takes several months. This ensures a strong and stable foundation for the replacement tooth.

Abutment and Crown Placement

Once the implant has fused with the jawbone, an abutment is attached to the implant, and a custom-made crown is placed on the abutment.

FAQ

Everything You Want to Know

Dental implants are artificial tooth roots made of titanium that are surgically placed into the jawbone. Over time, they fuse with the bone through a process called osseointegration, providing a stable foundation for replacement teeth, such as crowns, bridges, or dentures.
The entire dental implant process can take several months, typically ranging from three to nine months. This includes the initial consultation, implant placement, healing and osseointegration period, and final placement of the abutment and crown.

Most patients report minimal discomfort during and after the implant procedure. Local anesthesia is used during surgery to minimize pain. Post-surgery, over-the-counter pain medications and ice packs can help manage any discomfort during the healing process.
