Dental Implants

Through injury, decay, root damage, gum disease, or chronic wear you may loose teeth. A dental implant is an artificial tooth root that is fixed to your jawbone. A replacement tooth or bridge is fitted to the implant that looks and functions normally. Dental implants are a great way to replace your missing teeth.

Benefits of Implant Dentistry

Successful: The success rate is over 90% for the upper jaw and over 95% for the lower jaw.
Looks Great: Dental implants restore your smile with healthy, natural-looking teeth
A Permanent Solution: Compared to other restorative options such as bridges and dentures, dental implants are stronger and longer lasting.
Natural: A dental implant looks and feels like a normal tooth
East Maintenance: Dental implants don’t decay and they are easy to clean
All You Can Eat: You can eat normal foods because the dental implant is anchored to your jaw.
Effective: The underlying bone structure is preserved while the implant supports a crown replacing a single tooth or a bridge replacing multiple teeth. Dental implants can also add stability and reduce irritation of gum tissue with dentures.
No More Damage: Dental Implants don’t affect surrounding teeth.

The Dental Implant Procedure

The dentist does an examination of the area with x-rays
To fit the dental implant, a tiny hole is drilled where there is no tooth. This hole guides a small titanium screw into the jawbone. This procedure is done by an oral surgeon.
On top, a protective cover screw is placed to allow the site to heal. Over a period of several months, the implant site heals and the dental implant anchors to the bone through a process of osseointegration.
When the site has healed, the protective cover is removed and a temporary crown is placed on the implant.
When the gum grows and shapes itself naturally around the temporary dental crown, a permanent crown will replace the temporary crown.
Your porcelain crown now functions like a normal tooth. Although the dental implant cannot form cavities, it is recommended to continue good oral hygiene to protect the surrounding area.

Drs. Adam Almeida and Paul Bell skillfully positions the dental crown or permanent tooth after a partnered oral surgeon places the dental implant. You no longer need to worry about missing teeth. Dental implants can restore your full smile!
