Implant FAQs
Basic info about what a dental implant is.
Dental implants are medical devices surgically implanted into the jaw to restore a person’s ability to chew or their appearance. They provide support for artificial (fake) teeth, such as crowns, bridges, or dentures.
When a tooth is lost due to injury or disease, a person can experience complications such as rapid bone loss, defective speech, or changes to chewing patterns that result in discomfort. Replacing a lost tooth with a dental implant can significantly improve the patient’s quality of life and health.
Dental implant systems consist of a dental implant body and dental implant abutment and may also include an abutment fixation screw. The dental implant body is surgically inserted in the jawbone in place of the tooth’s root. The dental implant abutment is usually attached to the implant body by the abutment fixation screw and extends through gums into the mouth to support the attached artificial teeth.
• Restores the ability to chew
• Restores cosmetic appearance
• Helps keep the jawbone from shrinking due to bone loss
• Preserves the health of the surrounding bone and gums
• Helps keep adjacent (nearby) teeth stable
• Improves quality of life

What do implants feel like?
Dental Implants Function Like Natural Teeth
If, like many people, you enjoy foods like spare ribs, steaks, corn on the cob, apples, tacos, nuts and other culinary delights, good news: with a dental implant, you’ll be able to continue to enjoy these things – and speak and smile as you would with your natural teeth. That’s because dental implants are designed to replace tooth roots and chew through these hard-to-chew foods, much like your natural teeth.
Implants are placed below your gum line and fuse with your jawbone. So, once your tissues in the affected area have had time to heal, you won’t need to worry about your dental implant falling out since the titanium is anchored to the jawbone. The tooth replacement (a crown, bridge or denture) will be placed atop the implant to act as the biting surface of the tooth.
A Casual Observer Will Be Hard-Pressed to Tell You Have a Dental Implant
If you’re considering a dental implant to replace missing teeth, you might be concerned about whether people will be able to tell you to have an artificial tooth. You’ll be able to smile, speak, chew and do everything you’d usually do with your natural teeth, and a casual observer will be hard-pressed to spot that you have a dental implant.
The tooth replacement that will sit on top of the abutment will closely resemble your natural teeth and be matched to the shade of your existing teeth in order to create a uniform aesthetic.
How to Care for a Dental Implant
Of course, an excellent oral hygiene routine will still be necessary once your dental implant has been placed. Brushing your teeth at least two times a day and flossing at least once per day will keep plaque from building up and causing gingivitis. You should also continue to see your dentist for regular checkups and cleanings.
Our team can offer advice on how to care for your dental implant and address any questions or concerns you may have.
Implant Services
Single Tooth Replacement
Single tooth replacement – Direct replacement of a single missing tooth with an implant.
Implant Bridges
Implant Bridges – Replacement of multiple missing teeth. An alternative to shaving natural teeth.
Denture Retained By Implants
Dentures can also be connected to implants to help keep them stable while talking or eating. This is a great way to replace numerous missing teeth. Dentures do need to be removed nightly to allow your gums to remain healthy. This can be achieved with 4 implants on your upper jaw, and 2-4 implants on your lower jaw. The right style of appliance will be determined with you at your consultation.
All On 4 or All On X, Full Arch Prosthesis
This is the gold standard for replacing your missing teeth. These appliances look, feel and work just like your natural teeth, and they do not need to be removed nightly. In most cases your teeth are inserted the same day or within a few days of your implant surgery.
Bone Grafts
A dental bone graft adds volume and density to your jaw in areas where bone loss has occurred. The bone graft material may be taken from your own body (autogenous), or it may be purchased from a human tissue bank (allograft) or an animal tissue bank (xenograft). In some instances, the bone graft material may be synthetic (alloplast).
