Frequently Asked Questions
What are dental implants?
Dental implants are prosthetic tooth roots made of biocompatible titanium. They are surgically placed into your jawbone to support a replacement tooth or bridge, restoring both the appearance and function of your smile.
Why should I consider dental implant restoration?
Dental implants offer a permanent solution for missing teeth that looks, feels, and functions like natural teeth. They prevent bone and soft tissue loss around the missing tooth area and provide stability for bridges and dentures.
How is the dental implant procedure performed?
The dental implant procedure involves a minor surgical process. A titanium post is inserted into your jawbone, where the missing tooth's root was located. Over time, the implant fuses with the bone, creating a strong foundation. Once the implant is integrated, a porcelain crown is placed on top, completing your new tooth.
Will the dental implant procedure be painful?
During the procedure, you will be under local anesthesia and sedation, ensuring you are comfortable and pain-free. Some minor discomfort or swelling may occur afterward, but it can be managed with over-the-counter pain medication.
How long does the dental implant process take?
The timeline for dental implant restoration can vary. After the implant is placed, it typically takes a few months for the implant to integrate with the bone fully. Once the integration is complete, the crown can be placed. The entire process can take several months but results in a long-lasting and natural-looking smile.
Are dental implants suitable for everyone?
Dental implants are suitable for most patients who are in good overall health and have sufficient jawbone density to support the implant. Factors such as gum health and oral hygiene also play a role in determining candidacy.
How do I care for dental implants?
Caring for dental implants is similar to caring for natural teeth. Maintain a regular oral hygiene routine, including brushing, flossing, and attending regular dental checkups. Proper care is essential to prevent bacteria buildup that can affect the longevity of your implants.
Can dental implants be rejected by the body?
Implant rejection is rare but can occur. It is more likely to happen in patients who have a history of autoimmune disorders or conditions that affect the immune system. Our dental team thoroughly evaluates your health history to determine your suitability for dental implants.
What is the success rate of dental implants?
Dental implants have a high success rate, often exceeding %. With proper care and maintenance, they can last a lifetime. Regular dental checkups and good oral hygiene are key to ensuring the longevity of your dental implant restoration.
