What Are Dental Implants?

Dental implants are an exceptional way for people to replace missing or damaged teeth and offer a fixed alternative to removable partial or complete dentures. With their superior support and stability, implant dentistry offers unparalleled assistance to dental appliances.

Dental implants are artificial tooth roots that a dentist or Periodontist surgically implants into the upper or lower jawbone to support a replacement tooth or bridge. They are made of titanium and other biocompatible materials and are designed to fuse with the jawbone over time.

One amazing thing about dental implants is that implant-borne teeth are highly realistic in appearance and can enhance or even restore a patient’s smile. Known for their impressive strength, stability, and durability, dental implants can last a lifetime. However, they may require periodic tightening or replacement due to natural wear
and tear.

Understanding Our Dental Implant Process

The process of getting implants requires several visits over a period of months. At Belmont Dental, we believe that informed patients make the best decisions about their oral health. That’s why we take time to explain each step of dental implant surgery and process to our patients.

Consultation

During your initial consultation, your oral health, medical history, concerns, and goals will be discussed with one of our doctors. Next, x-rays and impressions of your teeth will be evaluated to check the bone, gum tissue, and spacing available for the implant. This is needed to develop a customized dental implant treatment plan.

Once a customized dental implant treatment plan is developed, your implant surgery will be scheduled. During this procedure, the doctor will place dental implants in the jawbone. This process can take several months, during which time the implant will become fully integrated with the jawbone.

Once the dental implant placement is done and the implant fuses with the upper or lower jawbone, an abutment is placed on top of the implant connecting the implant to the replacement tooth or bridge and serving as a base for attaching the artificial tooth or crown. Next, depending on the type of implant, a second surgery may be required to place the “post” that will hold the new tooth in place.

However, some implant systems have a pre-fabricated abutment that is already attached to the implant at the time of surgery, so the post and abutment are placed at the same time. Ultimately, the order of abutment and post-placement may vary depending on the implant type and specific treatment plan.

After the abutment is placed, impressions of your teeth are taken to create a customized replacement tooth or bridge. This replacement will be designed to match your existing tooth shape, size, and color for a natural-looking smile.

After several weeks of healing, the new teeth are made and fitted to the post portion of the anchor. This dental implant placement step may take one to two months to complete.

After a healing period, the new artificial teeth are securely attached to the implant. This provides excellent stability and comfort to the patient through the dental implant surgery process.

Follow-up appointments will be scheduled to monitor the healing progress and ensure the implant was a success. Care instructions for the implant and replacement tooth or bridge will be provided when the treatment is completed.

Why Consider A Dental Implant Service?

Our dental implants offer a wide range of benefits. Here are some of the reasons why using Belmont Dental’s implant services may be right for you. Your oral health is important to you.

Unlike traditional tooth-supported bridges, dental implants do not require the removal of healthy tooth structures.

You Want The Smile You’ve Always Dreamed Of

Dental implants are designed to look and feel like natural teeth. These artificial teeth are customized to match the shape, size, and color of your existing teeth, restoring your smile’s appearance and improving your overall facial aesthetics.

You Value Implants That Are Durable

Our implants are made of high-quality materials that are resistant to decay, fracture, and other dental problems. Our implant surgery produces a smile to last a lifetime.

You Enjoy Comfortable Dentures

Our implants are securely anchored in the upper or lower jawbone, providing a stable and comfortable foundation for replacement teeth. Unlike traditional dentures, they do not slip or shift when you talk or eat.

Our Dental Implant Services

Single Tooth Implants

Single Tooth Implants

If you have a single missing tooth, a dental implant can be used to replace it. The implant is surgically placed in the jawbone and left to fuse with the bone. Once the implant has fully integrated with the other teeth, a custom-made crown is attached to the implant, thereby restoring the function and appearance of your real tooth.

Multiple Teeth Implants

Multiple Teeth Implants

Dental implants can be used to replace one or more teeth. They’re placed strategically in the jawbone to support the bridge or denture, providing a stable and comfortable foundation for replacement teeth that look like real teeth.

Implant-Supported Dentures

Implant-Supported Dentures

Implant-supported dentures offer a more stable and comfortable alternative to traditional dentures. The denture is anchored to dental implants in the jawbone, providing a secure and stable foundation for replacement teeth. This eliminates the need for adhesives or the worry of dentures slipping or shifting while eating or speaking.

All-On-4 Dental Implants

All-On-4 Dental Implants

All-on-4® dental implants are a revolutionary treatment option for patients who have lost all of their teeth. With this treatment, a full arch of replacement teeth is anchored to four strategically placed dental implants. This innovative treatment option provides a more comfortable and natural-looking smile than traditional dentures.

How Much Do Dental Implants Cost?

If you want a long-term solution to replace missing or damaged teeth, dental implants are a great option. Deciding to get dental implants is the easy part. For many, it’s the cost of dental implants that is the hardest part to navigate.

Comparing Dental Implants To Alternative Options

When it comes to replacing missing or damaged teeth, there are several options available. Two of the most common alternatives to dental implants are dentures and bridges. Here is a comparison of dental implants to these alternative options:

Dentures

Dentures are removable false teeth that are designed to replace missing teeth. They are the most cost-effective option, but they also have several disadvantages. Dentures require messy adhesives to stay in place, and they can shift or fall out, causing embarrassment and discomfort. They can also interfere with the ability to taste food properly.

Bridges

Bridges are permanent dental appliances that are used to replace one or more missing teeth. They are attached to the remaining natural teeth on either side of the gap, and they can last up to 15 years with proper care.

However, bridges can put additional stress on the natural teeth that support them, and they don’t prevent bone loss in the jaw where dental implants do.

Dental Implants

Dental implants are artificial tooth roots placed into the upper or lower jawbone. They provide a healthier and more permanent solution to failing teeth. They are designed to preserve jawbone quality and density, which helps maintain a natural facial structure and appearance. They’re also the most long-lasting and durable option, with an implant success rate of over 95%.

Overall, a dental implant solution offers the most benefits and is recommended for patients who want a permanent solution and final restoration of their smile.

Patients should follow their dentist’s instructions for post-operative care and maintain good oral hygiene to reduce implant failure risk

Dental implants require some maintenance. Patients should avoid hard or chewy foods a few days after the surgery and follow the dentist’s instructions for post-operative care, practice good oral hygiene, and schedule regular dental check-ups.
