What are Dental Implants?
Dental implants are revolutionary solutions for replacing missing teeth. They consist of three essential components: the implant post, the abutment, and the restoration. The implant post serves as an artificial root made from body-safe titanium, which fuses with your jawbone through a process called osseointegration. This unique feature makes dental implants the only tooth replacement option that can become a permanent part of your jaw, meaning you're getting a restoration with excellent longevity.
Why Choose Tooth Implants?
The importance of dental implants goes beyond just filling in the gap left by a missing tooth. When a tooth is lost, so is its root, leading to various oral and overall health issues. Our dentist is passionate about helping you understand the benefits, including:
- Preservation of Surrounding Teeth: Dental implants help keep your neighboring teeth in their correct positions, preventing shifting and misalignment.
- Jawbone Stimulation: The implant post stimulates your jawbone, preventing bone loss and preserving facial features.
- Improved Function: Dental implants restore your biting and chewing abilities, promoting proper nutrition and digestion.
Our Dental Implant Restorations
At the practice of Raman Nazari, DDS, we provide a comprehensive range of dental implant restorations tailored to meet your unique requirements. Whether you have a missing tooth or need a solution for replacing multiple missing teeth, we have the skills to complete your smile effectively. Our restorative options for implant dentistry include:
- Single-Tooth Crowns: When you have a solitary missing tooth, our solution involves attaching a crown to a single dental implant. Single-tooth crowns can replace teeth anywhere in your smile.
- Implant-Supported Bridges: If you have multiple missing teeth in a row, we can restore them with an implant-supported bridge. Dental bridges use two or more implants on either end to anchor the bridge securely, offering long-term stability and improved oral function.
- Partial Dentures: In cases involving multiple missing teeth, usually in different positions throughout your smile, we provide custom-made partial dentures. These dentures are firmly anchored by dental implants, delivering a secure, comfortable, and versatile solution for multiple missing teeth.
- Complete Dental Dentures: When an entire arch of teeth is missing, has widespread decay, or other advanced complications, complete dentures supported by dental implants may be your solution. Implant-supported dentures are exceptionally stable and functional and work to preserve the health of your jawbone.
Our Implant Dentistry Pretreatment Options
Before implant placement, you may require specific pretreatment options to maximize the strength and stability of your dental implant. Our dentist will carefully examine your smile and determine whether you need additional services before placement. We'll then work closely with a trusted oral surgeon to make sure you get the services you need to prepare your smile for dental implants:
- Extractions: Our team works hard to preserve your natural teeth whenever possible, but when they're beyond repair, extractions can make space for your dental implants.
- Sinus Lift: In cases with limited space in the upper jaw, a sinus lift can create the necessary room for dental implant posts to bond with your upper jawbone properly.
- Bone Graft: For patients with insufficient jawbone density, a bone graft procedure adds healthy bone mass to support dental implants.
San Jose Implant Dentistry FAQs
Choosing the right dentist for dental implants is a significant decision. That's why our team is here to help answer your questions and help you feel comfortable about what can be an intimidating process. We aim to make getting dental implants something you're confident and excited about. Here are some common questions we receive:
Dental implants are suitable for adults with good oral and overall health. Even individuals with bone loss and gum disease can be candidates after a bone graft and gum disease treatment. We'll thoroughly examine your physical and oral health to ensure you are a good candidate for the procedure.
Dental implant posts become a permanent part of your jawbone, and with proper care and regular checkups, you can expect your tooth-shaped dental restorations to last 10-15 years.
Once we replace your teeth with dental implants, they can be maintained like natural teeth. Consistent oral hygiene and regular professional cleanings and exams are crucial for preserving your new smile.
