Dental Implants – Dallas, TX

What are Dental Implants?

Dental implants consist of titanium, screw-like posts, metal abutments, and a customized restoration. Versatile in their ability to replace one, multiple, or an entire arch of teeth, they mimic the tooth’s root, offering continuous stimulation to the jawbone. Because the post is hidden beneath the gumline, it blends in, allowing patients to maintain a natural look and feel when talking, eating, and smiling. Also, because of the titanium material used to create the implant, it is biocompatible, making it a healthier solution that integrates well with the bone tissues.

The 4-Step Dental Implant Process

• Initial Dental Implant Consultation – We will meet with you to discuss your candidacy for treatment and whether you will require preliminary treatments before dental implant surgery.
• Dental Implant Surgery – Requiring no referrals, the dental implant procedure is performed in-house. You’ll receive local anesthesia before each implant is placed within the jawbone.
• Dental Implant Osseointegration/Abutment – You will need to recover for 3-6 months at home, allowing the implant to fuse with the bone in a process known as osseointegration. You’ll then return to have your metal abutment(s) put into place.
• Delivery of Dental Implant Restoration(s) – Whether it is a crown, bridge, or denture, a customized restoration will be created and secured to the top(s) of your dental implant(s).

Who Dental Implants Can Help

Dental implants are known for their ability to help most people suffering from tooth loss. Because a majority of adults are capable of receiving these prosthetic teeth, the only potential caveat is whether a person requires preliminary treatment(s) or not. This may include bone grafting, periodontal therapy, or even tooth extraction, but our team will ensure that appropriate treatments are completed before moving forward with dental implant oral surgery.

The cost of dental implants will vary from person to person. The reason is that there are many factors our team must consider before detailing a complete estimate for the price.
