Dental Implants

Dental implants are a prosthetic replacement for missing teeth. They are made of titanium and carefully placed in positions that were once occupied by your natural teeth. Implants can either replace a single tooth, few teeth (implant supported bridge) or all the teeth (implant retained compete denture.)

Osseo-integration is the key for any successful implant placement. In this the bone cells attach themselves directly to the titanium surface (bone fuses with the implant), essentially locking the implant into the jaw bone. It takes 3-6 months for an implant to anchor to the jaw bone and heal, at which point the procedure is completed by placing a crown restoration.

During an implant consultation, x-rays, impressions of the teeth and OPG (full mouth x-rays) are done along with a complete examination of the teeth and gums. To evaluate the bone density & quantity, location of implant placement, CT scans (computer tomography) are also necessary.

An ideal candidate for a dental implant should be in good general and oral health; have adequate bone in the jaw to support the implant, and healthy gums which are free of periodontal disease. There are certain conditions and diseases that affect whether dental implants are right for you, discuss with your dentist. For example uncontrolled diabetes, cancer, radiation to the jaws, smoking, alcoholism or uncontrolled gum disease affects the implant success.
