What Are Dental Implants?
Dental implants are small titanium posts that are designed to be secured within the jawbone, underneath the gumline. Due to their biocompatible nature, they’re able to fuse with the bone through a process called osseointegration, which allows them to provide stimulation and blood flow to the area to keep it from eroding over time, as well as offer an unwavering foundation for a restoration to be attached to.
The 4-Step Dental Implant Process
Dental implants are the best tooth replacement option out there. They are the only solution that replaces the roots of the missing teeth, allowing for a wide range of benefits. To achieve this, getting dental implants requires a multi-step process that takes place over the course of several months. Continue reading to learn more about these steps so you know what to expect.
Benefits of Dental Implants
Dental implants in Decatur are such a popular tooth replacement treatment because they offer several benefits that other traditional solutions don’t. Because dental implants fuse with the jawbone to replace the missing root structure, they’re able to prevent the alteration of your facial shape by preserving the jawbone. This also allows them to restore up to 80% of your original bite power. And finally, they can easily last for 30+ years with just routine brushing and flossing.
Who Dental Implants Can Help
In addition to being one of the most advanced answers to tooth loss, dental implants are also incredibly versatile, with the ability to help patients in a variety of situations.
Missing One Tooth
For a single missing tooth, our periodontists can place one dental implant below the gumline and into the jawbone. After it has fused with the bone and the abutment has been attached to it, your general dentist will secure a free-standing, custom-crafted dental crown to it to fill the space in your arch.
Missing Multiple Teeth
If you have several missing teeth in a row or throughout your arch, we can secure an implant bridge as well as implant crowns to complete your smile. An implant bridge is anchored within the mouth by placing two dental implants at either side of the gap. This will allow the bridge to be supported by the implants instead of your natural existing teeth, making the procedure more conservative.
Missing All of Your Teeth
To rebuild a smile completely, our team can secure anywhere between four and eight dental implants throughout the jawbone. This will anchor a full denture without the fear of having it slip or shift whenever you eat or speak. Our team is happy to partner with local general dentists to offer All-on-4 and Teeth in a Day, which can bring back an entire row in a single appointment.
Understanding the Cost of Dental Implants
Every tooth loss case is different, which means there’s no set cost for the entire dental implant procedure. However, one aspect of the process that keeps it affordable for many patients is the fact that the cost of each step doesn’t have to be paid upfront. This allows you to split the cost of your procedure up into smaller amounts to make it more manageable for your budget. Our team is also happy to help you navigate dental insurance and financing options before you undergo surgery.
