Key Benefits of Dental Implants

  • Natural Look and Feel: Implants are designed to look and function like your natural teeth.
  • Long-Lasting Solution: With proper care, implants can last a lifetime.
  • Prevents Bone Loss: Implants stimulate the jawbone, preventing further bone deterioration.
  • Improved Comfort: No more discomfort or slippage associated with dentures.
  • Eat and Speak with Confidence: Implants allow you to enjoy your favourite foods and speak clearly.

What are Dental Implants?

Dental implants are titanium posts surgically placed into your jawbone to act as a foundation for replacement teeth. They mimic the roots of your teeth and provide a stable anchor for crowns, bridges, or dentures. They can be used to replace single teeth, several teeth or even a complete jaw. They’re also used to stabilise dentures from moving. The benefits of dental implants over conventional methods of tooth replacement include the preservation of the gum and the supporting bone. They also help distribute force over your remaining teeth, lengthening their lifespan.

Dental implants are used to replace:

  1. Single Missing Teeth: An individual implant with a crown can replace a single missing tooth without affecting neighbouring teeth.
  2. Multiple Missing Teeth: Implants can support a bridge or multiple crowns, replacing several teeth without needing separate implants for each one.
  3. Full Arch of Teeth: Implants (like All-on-4 or All-on-6) can replace an entire set of upper or lower teeth, providing a stable base for a full arch of prosthetic teeth.
  4. Stabilizing Dentures: Implants can support removable or fixed dentures, enhancing stability, comfort, and function, especially for patients with loose-fitting dentures.

Implants offer a durable, natural-looking solution for tooth loss and help prevent bone loss and shifting of remaining teeth.

How Does the Dental Implant Procedure Work?

The steps in a dental implant procedure typically include:

  1. Initial Consultation and Examination: The dentist assesses the patient’s oral health, takes X-rays or CT scans, and discusses the suitability of implants based on bone density and gum health.
  2. Treatment Planning: A personalized treatment plan is developed, often including a timeline, types of implants, and any preparatory procedures needed.
  3. Preparatory Procedures (if necessary): Some patients may need bone grafting or sinus lifts to ensure there’s enough bone structure to support the implant.
  4. Implant Placement: Under local anesthesia (or sedation, if preferred), the dentist surgically places the titanium implant post into the jawbone. The gum is stitched to allow healing.
  5. Osseointegration: Over the next few months, the bone fuses with the implant, anchoring it securely in place. This process typically takes 3-6 months.
  6. Abutment Placement: Once healed, a small connector (abutment) is attached to the implant post. This piece will hold the crown in place. This isn’t a mandatory step. It depends from person to person.
  7. Crown Fabrication: Impressions of the teeth are taken to create a custom crown that matches the patient’s natural teeth.
  8. Crown Fitting: The crown is attached to the abutment, completing the implant.
  9. Aftercare and Follow-Up: Regular check-ups are scheduled to ensure the implant remains secure, and patients receive care instructions for long-term success.
