    What Are Dental Implants?

    A dental implant is a biocompatible titanium post that works as a root replacement for your missing tooth. This post is put into the jawbone through surgery. It goes through a process called osseointegration and fuses with the bone, making a strong base for a custom crown, bridge, or denture.

    Benefits of Dental Implants

    Dental implants are considered the most effective option for replacing missing teeth because they offer benefits that other treatments cannot. These benefits are:

    • Jawbone Health: They stimulate the jawbone to prevent bone loss and the sunken facial appearance that can happen after tooth loss.
    • Natural Performance: Since implants are fixed in the bone, they feel like natural teeth and let you eat and speak comfortably.
    • Permanent Solution: With proper care, dental implants can last a lifetime, unlike bridges that may need replacement after several years.
    • Preserved Smile: Unlike bridges, implants don’t require the neighboring teeth to be filed down.

    Ideal Candidates for Dental Implants

    Most healthy adults can have dental implants. This is what we seek:

    • Healthy Gums: Important for the implant to work well in the long run.
    • Sufficient Bone Structure: If your bone density is low, our specialists are experts in bone grafting to prepare your site for a successful implant.
    • Overall Wellness: We review your medical history to ensure your body is ready for the healing process.

    The Dental Implants Procedure

    We understand that dental surgery is an important decision, so Dr. Saifee focuses on keeping you comfortable at every step. First, we use high-tech imaging to carefully plan the placement of your implant to ensure optimal function and appearance.

    Then, during a minor procedure, a titanium post is placed into the jaw, and we offer local anesthesia and sedation to help you stay relaxed. Over the next few months, the implant naturally bonds with your jawbone. Once healing is complete, we attach a small connector and place a custom-made crown that is designed to match your natural teeth.
