Dental Implants
Dental implants have been used in dentistry for many years and provide a solution to missing teeth by placing a titanium implant in the gap that exists. An excellent solution for teeth replacement, dental implants work by fixing an artificial tooth made from porcelain called “dental crown” to match your natural teeth. Steps include consultation, diagnosis, planning followed by implant placement.
What happens during Dental Implants Procedure?
Usually a 2 appointments process. Custom crown is then fitted into the implant that is made follow-up appointments ensures proper healing and maintenance. The success of the treatment is dependent on diligent oral care. In certain cases, it is possible to have the implant placed and the tooth (crown) inserted on the same day. However, it is common for the implant procedure to happen in multiple appointments that are usually several months apart. If so, we will examine you to make sure that the implant is secure. Then, we’ll place a connecting piece called an abutment over the post portion of the implant. This is the part that will hold the new tooth. When your gums heal, the dentist will make impressions of your teeth. They’ll create a custom replacement tooth, also called a crown. The crown is then attached to the abutment.
