What Are Dental Implants?
Dental implants are an excellent solution for addressing missing or severely damaged teeth. A dental implant consists of three main components: a small, body-safe metal implant post, an abutment, and a tooth-shaped restoration. These pieces work together to replace a tooth from root to crown, closely mimicking the look and function of natural teeth. With our dental implant offerings, you'll regain the ability to comfortably chew and speak while safeguarding your overall oral health.
Our Dental Implant Pretreatment Options
At Smile On You Dentistry, we understand the importance of a strong foundation for your dental implants. In some cases, you may require additional treatments like bone grafts and sinus lifts to ensure the health, longevity, and stability of your dental implants. These pretreatment options are vital for achieving great results and ensuring your dental implants function well for years to come.
- Bone Grafts: Bone grafts are crucial for those with low jawbone density to improve the stability of dental implants. Our dental team performs bone grafts by transplanting material to the jawbone to promote new bone growth and create a solid foundation for the implant, leading to secure and durable results.
- Sinus Lifts: Sinus lifts or sinus augmentations are necessary when the upper jaw is too short for dental implant placement. Our team conducts sinus lifts by elevating the sinus membrane and adding bone graft material to the upper jaw, ensuring enough space and support for the implant while protecting sinus health.
- Extractions: We always try to repair your damaged and decayed teeth. However, we offer skilled tooth extraction services when teeth are beyond repair to make room for your dental implant.
Our Dental Implant Process
Our skilled implant dentists can assist in both dental implant placement and restoration. We will conduct a thorough oral examination to determine if dental implants suit you. During this assessment, we'll consider aspects like your overall health, gum condition, jawbone density, and whether we can repair, rather than replace, your tooth. If necessary, we'll use advanced diagnostic tools like CBCT scanners to get a precise picture of your complete dentition.
We're prepared to help with procedures of any level of complexity and routinely collaborate with trusted specialists for implant placement and pre-implant procedures like complex extractions. While your smile heals and your implant bonds with your jawbone, your custom restoration will be designed. During the placement appointment, we'll ensure a comfortable fit. After, we'll continue to provide support and promote the longevity of your restoration with regular checkups at our office.
Comprehensive Restorative Options
We offer various restorative options to cater to your specific dental needs. Our dentists will always take the time to talk to you about the best options for your smile. Whether you're worried about decay affecting one or several teeth or recently experienced dental trauma, our team is here to help you feel confident and give you a clear path to a revitalized smile. You'll receive restorations that look and feel natural, and you can rest assured they'll be crafted to last.
Some of our offerings include:
- Crowns: Implant-supported crowns are ideal for replacing a single missing tooth. They can be placed throughout your smile, from front teeth to molars.
- Bridges: Implant-supported bridges are an excellent choice if you have multiple missing teeth in a row. This reliable and durable restoration is anchored on either end by a dental implant post, providing exceptional stability and function while renewing your confidence in your smile.
- Dentures: With implant dentures, we can replace entire arches of missing teeth. They offer exceptional functionality, durability, and stability. You can care for fixed dentures like natural teeth, simplifying your oral hygiene routine and allowing you to speak and eat confidently. Additionally, we offer immediate dentures to get you back to a functional bite as soon as possible while you wait for your definitive denture to be created.
- All-on-4®: All-on-4 is a method for placing implant-supported dentures using only four implant posts. If you qualify for this procedure, you can enjoy the benefits of implant-supported dentures while minimizing the procedure time and the impact on your jawbone. Our dentist will thoroughly examine your smile to determine your eligibility for All-on-4.
