What Are Dental Implants?
Dental implants have changed the way people reclaim their smiles. They look, feel, and function like natural teeth, offering a lasting solution for missing teeth. If you are considering dental implants, Dr. Monika Kaceli of Kaceli Dental Aesthetics can help you learn more about this advanced treatment and how it can transform your oral health. Dental implants are artificial tooth roots made from biocompatible materials, typically titanium. These implants are surgically placed into the jawbone to provide a sturdy foundation for replacement teeth, such as crowns, bridges, or dentures. Over time, the implants fuse with the bone through a process called osseointegration, creating a secure and permanent base. Unlike removable dentures, dental implants are fixed in place. This means you can eat, speak, and smile with confidence without worrying about slipping or discomfort. They are a trusted option for replacing one tooth, several teeth, or even a full arch. To explore dental implant placement, schedule a consultation with our Newton, MA team today to find out how this procedure can benefit you.
What Are the Steps to Dental Implant Placement?
Each step of the dental implant placement procedure at Kaceli Dental Aesthetics is carefully planned to achieve long-lasting results. While each patient's treatment plan is unique, the dental implant placement procedure generally follows these steps:
Consultation and Evaluation: During your first visit, the dentist evaluates your oral health, reviews your medical history, and takes imaging, such as X-rays or a CT scan. This step determines if your jawbone is strong enough to support implants.
Preparation: If necessary, preparatory procedures such as bone grafting or tooth extractions may be performed to create the ideal environment for the implants.
Implant Placement Surgery: The dentist surgically places the implant posts into the jawbone. Local anesthesia or sedation ensures your comfort during the procedure.
Healing Period: After placement, the implants need time to integrate with the jawbone. This healing phase typically lasts a few months and ensures a strong bond.
Abutment Placement: Once the implant has fused with the bone, an abutment (a small connector) is attached to the implant. This piece holds the replacement tooth in place.
Final Restoration: The last step involves attaching the custom-made crown, bridge, or denture to the abutment. The restoration is designed to blend seamlessly with your natural teeth.
