What are dental implants?

Dental implants are permanent tooth replacements that look, feel, and function just like natural teeth. They represent the gold standard for providing a long-lasting solution for missing teeth. A dental implant consists of three essential components working together to create your new tooth:

The Implant Post: Made from biocompatible titanium or zirconium, this small post is surgically placed into your jawbone to act as your new tooth root.

The Abutment: This connector piece is securely attached to the implant post and extends above the gum line, creating a stable base for your new tooth. It’s typically made from the same material as the implant for optimal compatibility.

The Crown: This is the visible part of your new tooth, custom-crafted to match your natural teeth in both appearance and function and made from durable materials like porcelain, ceramic, or zirconia.

A well-maintained crown can last 15-25 years while the implant post is designed to last a lifetime.

The process

The Dental Implant Procedure

Consultation and planning

We begin with a thorough consultation to understand your needs and goals. Using advanced 3-D imaging, we plan the precise placement of your implant to ensure optimal results.

Implant placement and recovery period

We place the titanium post implant into your jawbone. After placement, a healing period allows the implant to integrate with the bone, forming a strong foundation. We make the process as quick, easy and painless as possible.

Attaching the abutment

Once the implant has fused with the bone and the surrounding area has healed, we attach an abutment to the implant. Finally, we place a custom-made crown on the abutment, completing your new, natural-looking tooth.

Recovery and Aftercare

After the crown is placed, we provide detailed aftercare instructions to help you recover smoothly and maintain your new dental implant. Good oral hygiene is important, and our team will guide you on how to care for your implant to help it last for years to come. Regular follow-up visits are also scheduled to keep track of your progress and answer any questions you have.
