Dental Implants
Dental implants are a revolutionary solution for replacing missing teeth, offering a durable and natural-looking alternative to traditional dentures or bridges. At Grey Dentistry – Implant Center, we specialize in providing high-quality dental implants that restore the function and appearance of your smile with precision and care.
What are Dental Implants?
Dental implants are artificial tooth roots made of biocompatible titanium that are surgically placed into the jawbone to serve as a foundation for replacement teeth. Unlike dentures or bridges, implants integrate with the bone, providing a stable and permanent solution for missing teeth.
Benefits of Dental Implants:
- Natural Appearance: Implants closely mimic the look and function of natural teeth, blending seamlessly with your existing teeth.
- Durability: With proper care, dental implants can last a lifetime, making them a cost-effective long-term solution.
- Improved Function: Implants restore the ability to chew and speak comfortably, allowing you to enjoy your favorite foods and communicate confidently.
- Preservation of Jawbone: Implants help prevent bone loss by stimulating the jawbone, maintaining its structure and preventing the sunken appearance often associated with missing teeth.
- No Impact on Adjacent Teeth: Unlike traditional bridges, implants do not require alteration of adjacent teeth, preserving their integrity.
The Implant Process:
Consultation and Evaluation: During your initial visit, Dr. Sangeetha Priyadarshini will assess your oral health, discuss your goals, and determine if you are a suitable candidate for dental implants. Comprehensive imaging and diagnostic tests, including digital X-rays and a 3D scan, will be performed to plan the procedure.
Implant Placement: The implant procedure begins with the surgical placement of the titanium implant into the jawbone. The process is typically performed under local anesthesia, and you may experience minimal discomfort. Over time, the implant integrates with the bone in a process called osseointegration, creating a stable foundation for the replacement tooth.
Abutment Placement: Once the implant has fully integrated with the jawbone (which can take several months), an abutment is attached to the implant. The abutment serves as a connector between the implant and the final restoration.
Crown Fabrication and Placement: A custom dental crown is created to match the shape, size, and color of your natural teeth. The crown is then securely attached to the abutment, completing the restoration. The result is a tooth that looks and functions like a natural one.
Follow-Up and Maintenance: Regular follow-up visits will ensure that your implant is functioning properly and that your oral health remains optimal. Dr. Sangeetha Priyadarshini will provide guidance on caring for your implants to ensure their longevity.
