What Are Dental Implants?
Dental implants are synthetic structures placed in the area of the tooth normally occupied by the root.
They are custom fit to every patient using their own bone structure, creating a reliable foundation for artificial teeth or permanent bridges. Implants are typically made from titanium, which bonds quite well with bone tissue.
How do Dental Implants Work?
Not everyone is a candidate for a dental implant. For a successful implant to take hold, a candidate must have proper bone density and a strong immune system.
Our team will work closely with you to evaluate your eligibility for dental implants. Patients then undergo a two-step process:
- First, the dentist will apply local anesthesia, make an incision to access the jawbone, and prepare the bone for implant insertion. Once the implant is inserted, the dentist will stitch the gums and provide any necessary medication.
- Next, the jawbone undergoes a 3-8 month Osseointegration period. During this time, the jawbone will firmly attach itself to the dental implant. Once Osseointegration is complete, the patient returns to the office, and a dental implant is fitted with the new tooth.
No two patients are alike, so the Smile Dailey team works hand-in-hand with each and every customer to provide a compassionate, personable experience.
