If you're missing a tooth or teeth, then Dr. Smile wants the very best dentistry has to offer, and you could be their perfect candidate. Their dental implants provide tooth roots for replacement teeth. For the very best in look, feel, and function, they are securely anchored into the jaw, which is topped with a dental crown. Over other tooth replacement options, dental implants offer several advantages over others, such as dental bridges and partial dentures.
Their implants surrounding teeth and the jawbone are better preserved. Dr. Smile's single-tooth implants offer a convenient solution for patients who want to restore their tooth function without resorting to bridges or dentures. In addition to being easier to clean, the implant replaces the root section of the tooth and provides a stable anchor for the crown.
The implant is surgically placed in the jawbone during the initial stage of the procedure. The tooth structure comprises two main parts: the root, which is located below the gum line, and the crown. With Dr. Smile's implant, patients can regain the normal function of their tooth without relying on these alternative options. Under regular dental anesthesia, experts at Dr. Smile place the implant into the jawbone by opening the gum tissue. When this is achieved, the tissue is then sutured closed, but you really should consider that there is not often significant discomfort with this procedure. Depending on the number of implants being placed by Dr. Smile, this process can take from 1 to 3 hours.
During a period of 3-6 months, the implant will be left untreated, allowing a process called Osseo integration to occur. This process involves the growth of bone around the implant, which will help stabilize and integrate it into the jawbone. To allow for chewing and to preserve the cosmetic appearance, a removable crown may be utilized during this time period.
To ensure the progress of the treatment and your healing during this period of time, you will be visiting Dr. Smile. After the surgical placement of the implant inside the bone, the next stage involves the attachment of an abutment to the top of the implant. This process requires the exposure of the implant, followed by the placement of the abutment that will support the final crown. Dr. Smile will take an impression of the implant as the final step, and a permanent restoration crown will be placed. This restoration will be comfortable and cosmetically pleasing. Upon allowing you to resume normal activities, your completed implant will be fully functional.
