Dental Implants
Dental Implants
Dental implants are prosthetic teeth that can be used to replace a missing tooth. These marvels of engineering use the latest technology in titanium bio-compatibility to produce a stable artificial root onto which a new dental crown can be attached.
The end result is a new tooth that sits on its own root without affecting adjacent teeth. This allows you to replace a missing tooth without large and cumbersome denture or without affecting the neighboring teeth, as would be the case with a fixed bridge.
While dental implants are a wonderful way to replace missing teeth, they are not always the best option. This is why it is best to ask a dentist for their opinion on how to properly replace your missing teeth. What works great for most might not be the best option for you!
Dental Implants: A Permanent Solution for Your Missing Teeth
Are you tired of dealing with the inconvenience and discomfort of missing teeth? Look no further! At Benavent Dental, we are proud to offer state-of-the-art dental implant solutions that can give you back your smile and improve your quality of life.
What are Dental Implants?
Dental implants are artificial tooth roots made of titanium that are surgically placed into the jawbone. They provide a sturdy foundation for replacement teeth or dental crowns. Unlike dentures or bridges, dental implants are a permanent and long-lasting solution.
The Benefits of Dental Implants
1. Enhanced Appearance
Missing teeth can have a significant impact on your self-confidence and how others perceive you. Dental implants are designed to blend in seamlessly with your natural teeth, providing an aesthetically pleasing result. They restore your smile and help you regain your self-assurance.
2. Improved Oral Health
Dental implants are inserted into the jawbone, which stimulates bone growth and prevents bone loss. This stimulation helps to maintain the natural shape and density of your jawbone. Additionally, dental implants do not require reducing the size of adjacent teeth, unlike traditional bridgework, keeping your overall oral health intact.
3. Restored Functionality
One of the biggest advantages of dental implants is their ability to restore the functionality of your teeth. With implants, you can comfortably bite, chew, and speak, just as you would with your natural teeth. This allows you to enjoy your favorite foods without worrying about discomfort or limitations.
4. Longevity and Durability
Dental implants are an investment in your oral health that can last a lifetime if properly maintained. They are made from high-quality materials that are resistant to decay and deterioration. With regular dental check-ups and good oral hygiene, your dental implants will serve you well for many years to come.
The Dental Implant Process
1. Consultation and Treatment Planning
During your initial consultation with our experienced dental team, we will conduct a comprehensive examination and discuss your dental history and expectations. Using advanced dental imaging technology, we will create a personalized treatment plan tailored to your unique needs.
2. Implant Placement
The dental implant surgery is a minor procedure performed at Columbia Center for Implants and Periodontics. Their skilled surgeons will precisely position the implants into your jawbone. Over a period of a few months, the implants will gradually fuse with the bone through a process called osseointegration, creating a strong and secure foundation.
3. Restoration Placement
Once the implants have fully integrated, we will attach custom-made dental crowns or prosthetic teeth to the implants. These restorations will be carefully crafted to match the color, shape, and size of your natural teeth, ensuring a seamless and natural-looking smile.
4. Follow-up Care
After your dental implant procedure, we will provide you with detailed post-operative instructions and schedule follow-up appointments to monitor your progress. These visits are crucial to ensure that your implants are functioning correctly and that you maintain good oral hygiene.
