SINGLE-TOOTH DENTAL IMPLANTS |
A Single-Tooth Dental Implant closely resembles our natural tooth’s appearance, feeling, and most importantly its function, compared to other tooth replacement methods. Unlike Dentures for example, they tend to loosen as time goes by, thus making them look and feel unnatural, especially when they’re not properly aligned with the gums. And unlike with a typical 3-unit Dental Bridge to replace a single tooth, your healthy adjacent teeth remains intact and don’t need to be drilled or modified to install the fixture in place. A Dental Implant Procedure is the ideal solution in replacing your missing tooth to restore your smile.
Chair-Side Procedures |
|
The first step is to replace the missing tooth’s root by surgically placing a Titanium Implant Screw directly into the jaw bone so that proper integration will occur, thus initiating a natural process known as “osseointegration.” Osseointegration normally takes place in a period between three to six months wherein the implant screw will remain covered and protected underneath the gums the whole time. |
|
The second step involves the removal of the protection cap to expose the implant screw so that an “abutment” can be properly attached to it. The abutment serves as an extension to the implant and a connector to the “dental crown” at the same time. This completes the foundation on which your “new tooth” will be supported in place. |
|
The last and final step in completing the procedure is the placement of the dental crown, or to be quite literal, your “new tooth” actually. With proper techniques your dentist will make sure that the dental crown is of optimal size, shape, fit, and colour to perfectly blend with your existing natural teeth and facial characteristics. |
MULTIPLE-TEETH DENTAL IMPLANTS
|
Replacing multiple missing teeth with Dental Implants ensures incomparable strength and stability that would allow you to eat and speak with full confidence, just like having a complete set of healthy and natural teeth. Multiple-teeth Dental Implants also preserves the natural structure of your jaw bone, which is critical in maintaining your natural facial structure and preventing bone loss. Whether you want to replace a few missing or all of your teeth, Dental Implants will be able to restore and actually improve chewing and speech, and definitely provide a permanent natural appearance as well.
Chair-Side Procedures |
|
The first step is to replace the missing teeth’s roots by surgically placing Titanium Implant Screws directly into the jaw bone so that proper integration will occur, thus initiating “Osseo-integration,” a natural process in which bone fuses with a bio-compatible material, in this case are the titanium implant screws. The number of implant screws to be placed clearly depends on the number of replacement teeth that are to be placed along the gum. Osseo-integration normally takes place in a period between three to six months wherein the implant screws will remain covered and protected underneath the gums the whole time. |
|
The next step involves the removal of the protection caps to expose the implant screws so that “abutments” can be properly attached to them. The abutments serve as an extension to the implant screws and connectors to the “dental crowns” at the same time. This completes the foundation on which your new set of teeth will be supported in place. |
|
The third and final step in finalizing the procedure is the placement of the dental crowns or literally, your new set of teeth. With proper techniques your dentist will make sure that the dental crowns are of optimal size, shape, fit, and colour to perfectly blend with your existing natural teeth and facial characteristics. |
