Dental Implant Treatment Process

Your dentist will perform a thorough examination of your mouth, including x-rays, to assess your suitability for implants. If you’re suitable for the treatment, your dentist or implant surgeon will place artificial titanium implants into your jawbone. The titanium fuses with the jawbone as the gums heal, acting as an artificial tooth root to anchor a false tooth firmly in place.

The healing process typically takes three to six months, though it can be less in some cases. Your dentist will usually cover the implant during this time. If your x-ray or 3D scan indicates that your jaw has insufficient bone density for implants, your dentist may recommend a bone graft, which involves using artificial or animal bone to enhance the durability of your jaw.

Once your implants are firmly secure within your jaw, your dentist will attach prosthetic teeth on top, completing the process. These ceramic prosthetics feel, look and function just like natural teeth. Implants can support single false teeth or, in some cases, multiple teeth in a row. For instance, “all-on-four” implants use four implants, placed at different angles to support a row of teeth.

Cost of Dental Implants Milton Keynes

Your dentist will discuss with you the potential costs of treatment at your consultation. The cost of your treatment will depend on the condition of the tooth that needs an implant and how many crowns you require.

What Are Dental Implants?

Dental implants are artificial tooth roots which are placed into the jawbone. They are designed to hold false teeth that function and look just like natural teeth. Dentures may need replacement, but dental implants are essentially new tooth roots and will never need to be replaced. Implants also have a realistic look and feel like real teeth, which helps both from an aesthetic and from a comfort standpoint, when compared to dentures.

Dental Implant Procedure

Dental implants are implanted into the jawbone, acting as anchors for replacement teeth. In some cases, a bridge can be used to replace teeth. With this procedure, your gums and jaw will heal securely with the fixture intact, so you’ll never have to worry about gum disease or other health problems related to your smile. It’s also done under local anaesthesia, so you’ll be conscious but pain-free. Once the decay is taken out, your dentist will make a small hole in the jawbone, insert the implant and then secure it with screws.

What Does an Implant Look Like?

They resemble teeth and they are even strong like the teeth they are replacing. These dental implants are then implanted into your jaw, where they fuse with your natural bone tissue over time. Some dental implants can even feature porcelain veneers that match the colour of your existing teeth. In some cases, it’s done as a secondary procedure, requiring less healing time than the original procedure.

How Long Does an Implant Take?

Implants require three to six months of work, which can make it important to follow your dentist’s instructions closely. Sometimes, teeth need to be removed prior to placing an implant. Your specialist will explain how many teeth should be removed before an implant can be placed and how long the healing process will take. A toothless gap in the mouth could cause an unsightly look, so patients should have healthy teeth extracted before they receive dental implants.
