When you are missing one or more teeth, it can affect both your smile and your confidence. Depending on how many teeth are missing, you may also experience trouble biting and chewing.
The friendly and knowledgeable dental professionals at Imagine Dental are here to help you find a solution. Dental implants can fill in your gaps and perfectly match your existing natural teeth.
Book an appointment today to see how dental implants can restore your smile and your oral health.
Dental implants are surgically installed artificial teeth used to replace missing or extracted teeth. Dental implants are an excellent choice when you want to permanently replace one or a few missing teeth to complete your smile.
Unlike dental bridges or dentures, dental implants are surgically inserted into the jawbone and do not require suction or adjacent teeth for support.
Although the entire dental implant process can vary from patient to patient, our general process is as follows:
Our dental professionals will examine your entire oral cavity and take a series of X-rays. Because dental implants require a certain amount of healthy jaw tissue, the X-rays will help us determine whether your jawbones are strong enough and substantial enough to support an implant.
We will also discuss the entire dental implant procedure with you, what you can expect, the average healing time, and your care instructions. We will answer all your questions and address any concerns you may have so you are fully informed and comfortable with the procedure.
Once we have confirmed your candidacy, we will schedule an appointment for your implant surgery.
After local anesthesia or sedation is administered, we insert the metal post directly into the jawbone. Once we have installed the metal post, you will need to rest and heal before we add your crown. This helps ensure the root of your artificial tooth is strong and stable.
Once the implant has healed and settled, we will take impressions of your dental implant and surrounding gums to create a custom tooth, or crown, that will blend in with your natural teeth.
Once your tissue and jawbone have healed, we will attach and fit your crown onto your implant using an abutment. We will ensure it is an exact fit, that your spacing and alignment is correct, and that your new tooth is comfortable.
Because dental implants are permanent and cannot be removed, they are treated the same as natural teeth. To care for your new tooth, you should be:
