Dental Implants

Dental implants are the replacement of tooth roots. Tooth implants provide enough support for fixed or removable bridges or dentures. Dental implants, which are placed in the jawbone, are anchors made of a metal called titanium. The posts start to fuse with the jawbone over the course of a few months. After the healing process, known as osseointegration, abutment posts are inserted into the posts to allow for the permanent attachment of the implant crowns.

Types of Dental Implants:

Implant-Supported Over Dentures

Implant-supported dentures can be fixed or removable. This prosthetic requires the placement of two to eight implants. If a removable option is selected, the denture will sit onto the implant rather than the use of denture adhesives. Removable dentures must be taken out and cleaned at night.
This option offers more advantages over traditional dentures.
Easy to maintain, this solution can simulate the function and aesthetics of natural teeth and stay fixed in place with the help of dental implants as anchors. Patients will not experience the typical movement and rocking or gingival irritation they usually have with dentures.
Dental implant placement can also help alleviate the sunken look that can occur with jawbone loss by stimulating bone growth in the area around the implant. This process is known as osseointegration and can help prevent future jawbone loss.

Guided Dental Implant Surgery

With Cone Beam CT scans and restorative virtual treatment planning, guided implant placement is possible.
Using a physical model or a virtual 3D model, surgical placement of tooth implants and the following restorative work can be designed virtually to create the ideal treatment plan. These virtual plans allow the doctor to take different aspects of implant placement into consideration, resulting in optimal aesthetics, function, and longevity for the patient’s final restoration. Using a 3D model also allows the patient to better understand the process and visualize the outcome.
When treatment planning is complete, specialized software can be used to fabricate a surgical guide for use during implant placement surgery. The guide directs the exact angulation and depth of the implant placement. The use of the surgical guide increases the accuracy, predictability, safety, and efficiency of the procedure.

Full Arch with Four Implants

This procedure, often called an all-on-4 is a modern implant solution that allows patients who are missing all of their teeth to restore a full arch of teeth using 4 dental implants only.
This solution offers many advantages over traditional dentures.
Easy to care for, this solution can simulate the function and aesthetic of natural teeth and stay in place with the implants as permanent anchors. Patients will not experience the typical rocking and movement or gum irritation associated with traditional dentures. Patients can often have a full arch of teeth the same day, reducing both overall cost and healing time for the patient.
Just like implant-supported dentures, All-on-4 can help prevent the sunken look that can occur with bone loss in the jaw by stimulating bone growth in the area surrounding the implant. This process is known as osseointegration.
With all-on-4, there is no plate covering the roof of the mouth, so eating and talking are more natural and comfortable than with a traditional denture.

Dental Implant-Supported Bridge

An implant-supported bridge is a restorative solution for spaces where multiple teeth in a row are missing. The bridge replaces multiple adjacent missing teeth without the use of a denture. This restoration typically requires at least two implants to support the bridge. The bridge provides a functional and aesthetic replacement for the patient's natural teeth.
