At our practice, we understand that losing a tooth can impact more than just your smile. It can affect your confidence, ability to eat comfortably and overall oral health. That is why we are proud to offer dental implants as a reliable and lasting solution for tooth replacement.
Why Dental Implants Are a Trusted Choice
Dental implants have become the gold standard in tooth replacement because they are designed to function just like your natural teeth. Unlike dentures or bridges, implants are surgically placed into the jawbone, creating a strong foundation for replacement teeth. This integration with the bone prevents the deterioration that often occurs after tooth loss and helps maintain the natural shape of your face. Dr. Pranay Patel utilizes the latest techniques and technologies to ensure that your dental implant procedure is as comfortable and successful as possible.
What to Expect During the Implant Process
- Initial Consultation: The first step is a thorough examination and consultation. This includes discussing your goals, evaluating your oral health and determining if dental implants are the right solution for you.
- Implant Placement: Once you are ready to proceed, the implant, a small titanium post, is surgically placed into the jawbone by our dentist. Over the next few months, the implant will naturally fuse with the bone, creating a stable base.
- Restoration: After the implant has integrated with the jawbone, a custom-made crown is attached to the implant. This crown is designed to blend seamlessly with your natural teeth, giving you a complete, functional smile.
