Dec 29, 2023

Introduction

Wilson House Dental Practice is committed to providing exceptional dental care in the field of General Dentistry. We specialize in offering long-lasting dental implants, one of the most reliable and effective solutions for missing teeth replacement.

Understanding Dental Implants

Dental implants are advanced, permanent replacements for missing teeth. They consist of three main components:

  • Titanium Implant: A small titanium post that is surgically placed into the jawbone, serving as a sturdy foundation for the artificial tooth.
  • Abutment: A connector piece that attaches the implant to the crown or bridge.
  • Crown or Bridge: The visible part of the implant, custom-made to seamlessly blend with your natural teeth.

The Benefits of Dental Implants

Dental implants offer numerous advantages over traditional dentures or bridges. Let's explore:

1. Improved Functionality

Unlike removable dentures, dental implants are securely anchored to the jawbone, creating a stable and comfortable bite. This allows you to eat, speak, and smile with confidence, without worrying about your teeth slipping or shifting.

2. Longevity

One of the key benefits of dental implants is their exceptional durability. With proper care and maintenance, dental implants can last a lifetime, making them a worthwhile investment for your oral health.

3. Enhanced Aesthetics

Dental implants are designed to look and feel just like your natural teeth. They are custom-crafted to match the shape, color, and size of your existing teeth, providing a seamless and harmonious smile.

4. Preserves Bone Health

When a tooth is lost, the underlying jawbone can begin to deteriorate. Dental implants stimulate the bone growth and prevent bone loss, maintaining the integrity of your facial structure over time.

5. Improved Oral Health

Unlike traditional bridges, dental implants do not require altering surrounding teeth for support. This means your adjacent healthy teeth remain untouched, promoting better overall oral health.

The Dental Implant Procedure

The process of getting dental implants generally involves several steps:

  1. Initial Consultation and Evaluation: Our skilled dentists at Wilson House Dental Practice will assess your oral health, conduct necessary tests, and determine if dental implants are suitable for you.
  2. Implant Placement: Once deemed appropriate, the dental implant(s) will be surgically positioned into your jawbone. Local anesthesia ensures a comfortable experience.
  3. Osseointegration: Over the course of a few months, your jawbone will naturally fuse with the titanium implant, creating a strong foundation.
  4. Abutment Placement: Once the implant has successfully integrated with the bone, an abutment will be attached to connect the implant and the crown or bridge.
  5. Crown or Bridge Placement: Finally, a custom dental crown or bridge will be securely positioned onto the implanted abutment, completing your restored smile.
