What are Dental Implants?

Single Dental Implant Photo
Dental implants can replace teeth that are missing or unable to be saved. A dental implant is made of titanium, a biocompatible material that fuses with the bone in your jaw to form a solid bond that can last a lifetime and replace your broken or missing teeth. It is fixed in your jaw just like your regular teeth and feels like your regular teeth. They are considered to be the highest quality tooth replacement option available.

What Goes on Top of Dental Implants?

Implant Support Denture

A single dental crown can be placed on top of a single dental implant to copy the appearance of your natural tooth. It is the most comfortable tooth replacement therapy.

When a patient misses two or multiple teeth, a dental bridge, full arch zirconia teeth, or fixed hybrid dentures can be placed on top of multiple implants. This is the most comfortable, functional, and esthetic tooth replacement therapy. Patients who have difficulty wearing removable partial or full dentures will seek this solution so they can have fixed teeth to chew

Benefits of Implants and Restorative Dentistry

Dental implant restorations offer many benefits:

  • Natural function. A dental implant functions like a natural tooth, providing the same bite strength and chewing force as a healthy tooth.
  • Natural appearance. A dental implant provides the most natural-looking replacement for one or more missing teeth.
  • Preserve bone structure. Because a dental implant fuses with the jaw bone, it preserves the bone strength and structure that would otherwise weaken and dissolve in the absence of a tooth.
  • Protect your existing teeth. A dental implant exists completely independent of your other teeth, meaning it won’t damage your healthy teeth in any way. It will even help your existing teeth stay in proper alignment.

Are You a Good Candidate for Dental Implants?

If you have one or more missing or severely damaged teeth, you may be a candidate for dental implants. It is necessary to have enough bone structure in the jaw to support an implant, otherwise, a bone graft procedure may need to be performed first. A bone graft procedure involves placing a bone fragment under the gum tissue on top of the existing bone to encourage the regeneration of the bone tissue. Once this process is complete, you will be ready to receive one or more dental implants.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long do dental implants last?

The dental implant itself, the part that is placed in the jaw, can last a lifetime. The prosthetic attached (either a crown, bridge, or dentures) on average, can have a lifespan of at least 10-30 years. The amount of wear on the prosthesis can vary, depending on the type of material one chooses to receive.

Do I still need a regular dental cleaning with dental implants?

Yes, regular dental cleaning will eliminate debris, calculus, and plaque accumulated in the mouth. It will prevent one from getting peri-implantitis (infection in the implants). It is important to keep up your regular cleaning schedule as directed by your dentist.

How many implants are required for implant supported dentures?

Implant supported dentures typically require about 4-6 dental implants to anchor them securely in place. This prevents them from slipping out of place and preserves the bone structure of your jaw at the same time.

What kind of bone is used for the surgery?

At Chang Dental Group, our doctors only use the highest quality bone. It is sterilized and safe to use. The surgeons’ techniques are very important in keeping the surgical site clean and healthy. That is why patients choose us to have dental implant surgery for our highest quality. All the bone material and dental implants are specifically reserved for one patient.

What is the success rate of dental implants?

On average, the success rate of dental implants is 95%. But that rate increases with the expertise of your dentist and if you follow your dentist’s instructions for follow-up care. You could increase the chance of success to 98-99%.

Are dental implants worth the cost?

Absolutely yes. They are the most beautiful and comfortable tooth replacement therapy. When dental implants are done with high quality at Chang Dental Group, you will enjoy fully functioning and natural-looking teeth for years to come. Don’t let the cost of dental implants prevent you from getting the highest quality dental care. Financing options can make implants more affordable. Pay your treatment overtime with our financing options. But do not let your condition get worse overtime.

What are some of the problems with dental implants?

In our office, we receive referrals to treat failed implants that were done elsewhere.
