What is a dental implant?

Drs. Lokhandwala, Tariq, Richard Yai, DDS, and Bozena Caballero describe the dental implant as a way of restoring the smile after tooth loss in a permanent manner. This procedure utilizes a titanium post that is inserted into the jawbone during oral surgery. The part of the post that sticks up from the gum line, called the abutment, is then restored in various ways to replace one or more teeth. The dental implant might be replaced with:

• a dental crown to replace an individual tooth
• a dental bridge as a support for one or both sides of the restoration
• a denture for optimum stabilization and strength for those missing all their teeth

As you can see, dental implants are extremely versatile and allow for many different options to the patient when it comes to tooth replacement—for one or several teeth!

How long do dental implants last?

Because dental implants stimulate the growth of bone around it through a process known as osseointegration, it allows patients to restore their smile for many decades. This integration into the bone is also what offers the strength needed over time for the dental implant to function at its best. Our dentists often recommend dental implants for patients who want a no-fuss, long-term solution for their tooth loss.
