Millions of people suffer from missing, broken, and decaying teeth. Tooth loss results from periodontal disease, bone loss, or trauma. Simple actions like chewing and biting become difficult and even painful. Unfortunately, a gap in your smile can make you feel less confident in your appearance and reluctant to socialize with others. At Implants & Periodontics, we have helped patients restore their smiles with dental implants.
Dental implants are the “gold standard” in tooth replacement, providing a life-like, permanent solution. Our team of expert periodontists has helped patients for more than ten years restore their smiles with dental implants. No matter how many teeth you’ve lost, dental implants can restore them permanently.
A dental implant consists of three crucial components: the implant post, the abutment, and the prosthetic tooth, offering a superior alternative to dentures. This long-lasting solution preserves the jawbone’s integrity and eliminates issues like slipping or migration commonly associated with dentures.
At Implants & Periodontics, our commitment to success involves ensuring the effectiveness and durability of full-mouth dental implants. Tailored to each unique need and oral health condition, our procedures prioritize accelerated healing, promising decades of reliable daily use with routine maintenance.
Dental implants provide a variety of options to meet your unique needs. Whether you lost a tooth due to an accident or disease, a single implant will look like a natural tooth and blend in with the rest of your smile. Dental implants can anchor larger prosthetics like dental bridges and implant-supported dentures, which are placed at each end of your dental bridge or denture to create a stable anchor. Your prosthesis is then snapped into place to permanently restore large rows of missing teeth, restoring aesthetics and function.
For patients needing a full mouth restoration, full mouth dental implants can help! Full mouth dental implants utilize strategically placed implants to support a full arch of teeth. With full mouth dental implants, you can experience a complete smile transformation and restore 99% of chewing and biting power.
We’ll complete a thorough exam to assess your oral health and create a custom treatment plan that considers your skin tone, facial structure, lip, and gum line.
Before any treatment begins, we will start with a simple conversation. We will discuss your dental concerns, smile goals, medical history, and what outcome you hope to receive after treatment. We’ll complete a thorough exam to assess your oral health and create a custom treatment plan that considers your skin tone, facial structure, lip, and gum line. Once your treatment plan is created, we’ll choose your preferred sedation method and schedule you for surgery.
On the day of your procedure, we’ll administer your sedation and make small incisions to your jawbone. We’ll then place your implants in predetermined places within your jawbone at a 45-degree angle to ensure optimal results and durability. Once the posts are inserted, we’ll attach the abutment connector and place your temporary prosthesis on top. This temporary prosthetic will allow you to use your smile and enjoy the benefits while your mouth heals.
Over the next 4-6 months, your mouth will heal through osseointegration, where your implants fuse with your jawbone to create a strong, durable foundation. Once healing is complete, we’ll place your final, hand-crafted final prosthesis. With regular checkups and a good at-home hygiene routine, your implants could last for decades!
