What are dental implants?

If you’re missing permanent teeth, dental implants fill in the empty gaps. They consist of sturdy metal posts inserted into your jawbone that anchor dentures, bridges, or crowns that look and feel like natural teeth. Dental implants offer you a vibrant, white, perfect smile without invasive procedures.

What are the advantages of dental implants?

The benefits of dental implants include teeth that are:

• Whiter
• Straighter
• Stronger
• Even-shaped
• Beautiful 
• Long-lasting
• Perfect

Dental implants reduce the risk of difficulty chewing, adjacent teeth shifting, speech problems, and low self-esteem. The implants replace teeth that are misshapen, weak, discolored, decaying, or broken. Dental implants can sometimes last a lifetime if you care for them correctly.

Are dental implants the right treatment for me?

The Elmora Dental team determines if you’re a candidate for dental implants after reviewing the results of your most recent dental X-rays, examining your gums and teeth, and asking about your treatment preferences and desired results.

In addition to dental implants, Elmora Dental also offers dental veneers, dental bonding, tooth-colored fillings, traditional crowns and bridges, and other restorative procedures for strong natural teeth.

If you have too little jawbone to support dental implants, your Elmora Dental provider may recommend you undergo a bone grafting procedure before dental implant placement. 

What happens when receiving dental implants?

Your Elmora Dental dentist numbs the treatment area before you receive dental implants to make sure the procedure feels comfortable. If you have dental anxiety, they offer a sedative to relax you.

Your provider then inserts metal posts into your jawbone to secure them in place. You might receive your artificial teeth the same day as implant placement or after your jaw has had a chance to heal around the implants. 

When the custom teeth are ready, your dentist attaches them to the implants. They remain securely in place to offer you a full set of strong, beautiful teeth and the natural-looking smile you desire.
