Teeth Implants Dental at StarBrite Dental in Dublin CA Area

Missing teeth can make it hard to chew your favorite foods, and they can add a lot of stress to your jaw. Dental implants can replace missing teeth so you can smile with confidence and enjoy full functionality while you speak and eat. Dr. Lokhandwala has the education and experience to place dental implants for missing teeth at her office in Dublin, CA.  

Benefits of Dental Implants

Most patients who are healthy enough for surgery are good candidates for dental implants. While the initial cost of dental implants may be more than other options, they are the only treatment that fully replaces the structure of your missing teeth. The implant is a small, screw-shaped rod that fuses with your jaw bone to provide stimulation and prevent bone loss. It also supports a variety of prosthetic teeth, including dental bridges, crowns, and complete dentures

Dental implants can also help you keep your teeth in place to prevent further issues down the line. Bridges and partial dentures can help with this in the short term, but as your jaw bone shrinks, you’ll eventually need a replacement. Dental implants are sturdy enough to last for decades, so the initial expense will save you money on future procedures. 

What to expect during your procedure

Dr. Lokhandwala will evaluate your teeth and form your treatment plan during your initial consultation. Before your implant can be placed, she’ll need to treat issues like tooth decay and gum disease, as well as extract any damaged teeth that need to be replaced. Once these issues are handled and your extraction site is healed, you’ll come back for your implant procedure.

During the implant procedure, Dr. Lokhandwala will drill into your gum line and expose your jaw bone. At this point, some patients may require bone or tissue grafts to support the implant. Next, she’ll place the implant into your jaw bone and stitch it in place to help your tissues heal. After a few months, you’ll return to have your abutment placed to hold the restoration. After it’s in place, she can attach your prosthetic, and your new smile will be ready to show off. 

Oral health issues should be treated as soon as possible to minimize the damage. Don’t hesitate to contact our office in Dublin, CA. Schedule your appointment today at (925) 828-0252.
