Advantages of Dental Implants
Implants are an ideal replacement for natural teeth. They are highly versatile and can support several restorations, including crowns, bridges, and dentures. The many advantages of dental implants include:
- They look, feel, and function like natural teeth
- Implants fuse permanently with the jawbone, making them reliable and long-lasting
- They prevent bone loss, thus preserving your facial structure
- Implants provide support to adjacent teeth, preventing them from shifting
We understand that, with numerous tooth replacement options to choose from, you may have questions about dental implants. If so, don't hesitate to ask. Our team is happy to help you select the right treatment for your needs.
Our Arlington Dental Implant Process
Our practice offers dental implant placement and restorations to replace one or multiple missing teeth. We also perform pre-treatments like bone grafts and sinus lifts to ensure your jawbone is strong enough to support dental implants. When you visit our practice in Arlington for dental implants, you can expect the following process:
Step I: Planning: We begin your implant procedure with a thorough evaluation of your oral health situation. The assessment allows our team to gauge your eligibility for implants and plan your treatment. If you have oral health problems or insufficient jawbone density, our dentist will perform the necessary treatments to prepare you for dental implants. Our practice uses CBCT scans to evaluate your needs and create a plan that works for you to achieve the best results.
Step II: Placement: Once you are ready for the implants, the dentist will perform the procedure to place them into your jaw with the utmost care and precision. We use computer guided-technology to provide optimal placement during your procedure. If you require full sedation, we work with a trusted oral surgeon within our building to give you maximum comfort.
Step III: Healing: Once the implant posts are in place, you will need time to rest and heal. The recovery stage is important because it allows the implants to fuse with the jawbone for stability (a process called osseointegration), which can take a few months.
Step IV: Placing the Final Restoration: Once your implant has fully fused with the jawbone, you are ready for the final step. We take impressions of your teeth to create a custom restoration, be it a crown, bridge, or denture. Our dentist then secures the artificial restoration to the implant to complete your tooth replacement.
Extractions
Our dental treatments focus on preserving your natural tooth structure whenever possible. However, severe tooth damage may make extraction necessary to alleviate pain and prevent complications. Our dentist is gentle and will do everything possible to maximize your comfort during the procedure. After tooth removal, our team will recommend the best replacement option that fits your unique smile.
All-On-4® Implant Treatment
All-on-4 refers to dental restorations that rely on just four implants to replace an entire set of teeth on your upper jaw, lower jaw, or both. Unlike traditional dentures that tend to slip or fall out, All-on-4 restorations fit securely and are easy to maintain.
Dental Implant FAQs
We understand that you'll have a lot of questions about dental implants, and our dedicated team looks forward to providing you with answers. We've listed some of the more common questions below for your convenience.
You should be at least 18 years old to be eligible for dental implants. Your oral health must also be in excellent form, and your jawbone should be sufficient to support the implants. Before getting an implant, it's important to treat any existing issues, such as gum disease.
Our dentist numbs your mouth with anesthesia to prevent pain during dental implant surgery. However, you may experience mild pain or discomfort once the anesthesia wears off. The pain usually goes away within a few days after surgery, and you can use over-the-counter pain relief medications as needed.
Since dental implants look, feel, and function like natural teeth, they don't require special treatment. Practice proper oral hygiene, maintain a healthy diet, and go to your regularly scheduled dentist visits to maintain your overall oral health. Also, avoid harmful habits that may damage your restorations, such as using your teeth to open bottles and packages.
