Dental Implants

Are you considering dental implants to restore your smile and boost your confidence? At Monument Dental, we understand that the decision to get dental implants is significant, and we are here to guide you through every step of the process. Our specialized team is committed to providing you with the highest quality care, ensuring that your experience is both comfortable and successful.

What Are Dental Implants?

Dental implants are artificial tooth roots, similar in shape to screws. When dental implants are placed in your jawbone, they bond with your natural bone. They become a sturdy base for supporting one or more artificial teeth, known as crowns. Dental implants are a popular and effective long-term solution for people who suffer from missing teeth, failing teeth, or chronic dental problems.

Benefits of Dental Implants

Improved Appearance: Dental implants look and feel like your own teeth.

Enhanced Comfort: Dental implants eliminate the discomfort of removable dentures.

Speech Improvement: With poorly fitting dentures, the teeth can slip within the mouth causing you to mumble or slur your words. Dental implants allow you to speak without the worry.

Durability: Implants are very durable and will last many years. With good care, many implants last a lifetime.

The Dental Implant Procedure

Receiving dental implants involves several steps and may require several months to complete. Here is a general overview of the process:

Initial Consultation: This is the first step where Monument Dental will evaluate your dental and medical history, and determine if you are a good candidate for dental implants.

Surgical Placement: The implant is surgically placed into your jawbone. This is done under local anesthesia to ensure your comfort.

Osseointegration: Over the next few months, the implant will naturally bond with your jawbone in a process called osseointegration.

Abutment Placement: Once the implant is securely bonded, a small connector post, called an abutment, is attached to hold the new tooth securely.

Placement of Artificial Tooth: Finally, a custom-made crown is attached to the abutment, completing the restoration.

Are You a Candidate for Dental Implants?

Most individuals who are in good general health, have healthy gums, and have adequate bone to support an implant can consider dental implants. However, certain conditions such as uncontrolled diabetes, cancer, or radiation to the jaw may affect the success of the implant. Monument Dental will conduct a comprehensive evaluation to determine your suitability for the procedure.
