When you’re missing natural teeth, everyday activities can suddenly become more burdensome. Eating may be uncomfortable, and speaking can require additional effort, impacting the quality of your relationships and interactions. If you’re missing many teeth, your mouth can also begin to sag, adding unwanted years to your appearance.
Schedule an AppointmentAt Anderson Dental Professionals, we believe that embarrassment or discomfort should never interfere with the quality of our patients’ lives and that each individual deserves to feel confident about his or her smile. Our dental experts are on hand to determine whether dental implants are right for you, unlocking a new level of oral care.
It’s time to take your power back and reclaim your smile.
Dental implants are replacement tooth roots, designed to fuse with the bone, that can be fitted with permanent false teeth. They seamlessly blend with your natural teeth, restoring your smile to its full potential, but their benefits aren’t limited to just appearances. Dental implants allow for easier chewing, improved speech, and a more comfortable experience than traditional dentures. Thanks to their natural essence and ability to become part of you, the implants are long-lasting and incredibly convenient, making oral health an easy affair and eliminating any embarrassment that might accompany missing teeth or constant denture removal.
Dental implants are for anyone who has one or more broken, decaying, or missing teeth. Alternatively, if you’ve had dentures in the past and are ready for a more permanent change, dental implants are a spectacular option for you. The procedure is suitable for individuals of all ages given that their gums and bone structure are healthy enough to support the implants. Regular smokers or those with other conditions, may require additional evaluation to ensure implants are a positive fit.
By setting up an appointment in our Crown Point office, you can easily discover whether dental implants are a viable option for you.
First, we will place an implant where you once had a natural tooth, making an incision in the gum and placing a screw into the jawbone. Multiple implants can be placed at once. After they’re placed, the gums are sutured. The gums will need about 3 to 6 months to heal, and the jawbone will naturally form around the implant during this time. As the jaw is healing, we may fix a temporary crown on the implant support, ensuring that it blends in with your adjacent teeth.
After the implant has healed, we will place an abutment on the implant, which will serve as the base for your new tooth. An impression will be taken and used to produce your new permanent tooth restoration. Once it’s ready, it will be permanently placed on the implant. After a short period of adapting to the implant, it will start to feel like it’s always been one of your natural teeth.
