Dental Implants
 
 

                        
Dental implants are a permanent and appealing solution to replace missing or extracted teeth. They are better than other alternatives like bridges because no additional teeth need to be altered to place the new tooth.

The entire implant process is performed over the course of a few months. The first part of the process is to install the implant itself, The implant is  placed into the jaw bone through and incision made in the gum. Multiple implants can be placed at once if necessary.

The implant must be allowed about 3-6 months to heal, and during this time the jaw bone will integrate with the implant in a process called osseointegration. During this healing time you may be able have temporary crowns installed so that you can eat and speak normally and maintain a proper aesthetic appearance for your smile.

After the implant has healed it is time to place an abutment on the implant. The abutment serves as the base for your new crown. Once this is placed an impression of the abutment is taken and is used to create your permanent restoration. The impression is then sent to an outside lab. Once the restoration is completed you can return to the office to have the abutment and crown seated permanently. After a short period of getting used to the implant it will feel just like one of your natural teeth.
