Dental Implants
Missing a tooth? Get a dental implant the most popular, natural-looking way of replacing missing teeth.
Doesn't your smile deserve the best?
Dental implants are widely regarded as the best solution for missing teeth; no other dental treatment comes close to mimicking the appearance, feel, and function of your natural teeth. Implant surgery is a high-tech, minimally invasive procedure that involves inserting a titanium post into the jaw bone to mimic the role of a tooth root and support a permanent aesthetic crown, bridge, or even denture.
What are dental implants?
A dental implant is an artificial tooth replacement. It is more than simply filling a void. It is a more secure and long-lasting solution than a bridge or denture.
The procedure begins with the insertion of a small screw into the jawbone, which serves as a replacement root. The screw will then be attached to a crown or denture, securing it in place and providing an excellent alternative to a tooth.
There is no reason why a dental implant should not last for many years if properly cared for. It will remain firmly in place, as opposed to dentures or bridges, which frequently move around as the jawbone changes over time. The perfect custom fit means no speech changes or discomfort, and the implant will be designed to blend in with the rest of your teeth, making it completely undetectable.
Frequently asked questions.
Because implants can only be considered for healthy mouths, some patients may discover that the process of getting implants will first necessitate other dental work, such as bone grafting, gum surgery, or orthodontics.
Dental implant surgery is both technologically advanced and minimally invasive. An implant can be precisely placed using 3D scanning and a computer-guided dental laser, resulting in the least amount of trauma and thus a quick recovery time. After the implant has been placed in the jaw, you will need to wait a few weeks for the integration process to begin. This is the process by which your natural bone tissue grows around the implant, securing it in place for life. After successful integration, you will be able to return to your implant dentist for the final fitting of your new tooth.
No, implant surgery is usually painless and is usually performed under conscious sedation, which combines sedative, analgesic, and local anaesthetic. Swelling may occur for a few days following the procedure. Your dentist will provide you with a detailed aftercare plan.
