What Is a Dental Implant?

A dental implant is a prosthetic that replaces a missing natural tooth to restore your smile and bite function. They consist of a titanium post, an abutment, and a single prosthetic tooth or a configuration of multiple teeth to fully rejuvenate your smile. We are dedicated to meeting your needs, which is why our team is trained and equipped to place and restore dental implants. Our office is fitted with modern technology and sedation options to promote efficiency and precision as well as maximize your comfort.

We offer a wide array of implant-supported options, such as crowns, bridges, and Hybridge® dentures. Our office is also equipped to provide the pre-implant services you need, from extraction to bone grafts and sinus lifts, allowing us to provide the consistent quality care you deserve from the start to the finish of your treatment plan.

Our Dental Implant Process

dental implants grand prairie txWhen you visit our office for your dental implant, you will discover a friendly team who makes you a priority. Whether your missing tooth is due to a trauma resulting in an avulsed (knocked out) tooth or you simply need an extraction because the natural tooth is damaged or infected, you can rely on us to renew your smile.

We begin with a thorough dental exam, complete with 3D imaging, to ensure we have a full understanding of your situation. Our team will carefully review your oral health based on the scans of your teeth, jaws, and gums. If necessary, we will discuss a bone graft or a sinus lift to fortify your jawbone so it will be strong enough to support a dental implant.

The implant placement procedure consists of anchoring the titanium post in your jaw to serve as the artificial tooth root. It will take some time for the post to fuse with your jawbone in a process called osseointegration. Once the post is firmly set, your custom prosthetic will be placed, and your smile will be fully restored. Dental implants are increasingly popular because they are the only dental restoration option that replaces both the root and the crown of your missing tooth.

Benefits of a Dental Implant

A dental implant offers numerous benefits to your oral health as well as your quality of life. Some of those benefits include the following:

  • The titanium post performs the same function as a tooth root. It anchors the crown and stimulates the jawbone, which also prevents bone loss.
  • A dental implant is a permanent solution for tooth loss. The post permanently fuses with your bone, which means that even if the crown of your implant becomes damaged, only the restoration would need to be replaced.
  • Dental implants restore your bite integrity and strength. This means that you can enjoy your normal diet and will not have to avoid hard or sticky foods. However, it is vital that you do not use your dental implant on hard surfaces, such as to open bottles or cans.
  • They maintain your appearance. When you select dental implants to replace a missing tooth, your facial muscles are able to maintain their function and are not compromised by bone loss in the jaw.
  • Implants don't require any special hygiene care. Dental implants are easy to maintain. You will simply brush and floss your implant twice daily, just like your normal teeth. It is also important that you keep your regular dental appointments to ensure your implants stay as healthy as possible.

We know you'll have questions regarding your treatment plan, and we encourage you to ask questions and share your concerns. Our friendly team is happy to address them and provide the information you need to make an informed decision regarding your oral health.
