Dental implant restoration is a low-maintenance option. Unlike traditional dentures, there's no need for special adhesives or removal for cleaning. You can simply care for them as you would your natural teeth, with regular brushing and flossing. This convenience ensures that you can maintain your oral hygiene routine without disruption.
One of the most significant benefits of dental implant restoration is the restoration of your natural smile. Implants not only look like your own teeth, but they also function in the same way. You can enjoy your favorite foods without worry, and speaking is a breeze. No more slurred speech or discomfort. Dental implants restore your confidence and overall quality of life.
Dental implants are built to last. They are made from high-quality materials that are designed to withstand the test of time. With proper care, your dental implants can potentially last a lifetime. This long-term solution not only saves you money in the long run but also offers peace of mind, knowing your smile is here to stay.
The dental implant process typically starts with a consultation to determine your eligibility for the treatment. At Precision Dentistry of Williamsburg, we'll assess your oral health and discuss your goals. If you're a suitable candidate for dental implants, we'll refer you to a specialist for the surgical placement of the implant. This is a crucial step to ensure the implant is securely anchored in your jawbone.
Once the implant has fused with the jawbone, the abutment is attached. The abutment is a small connector that holds the replacement tooth securely in place. It is customized to match your natural teeth, ensuring a seamless and aesthetic fit.
The final step in the dental implant restoration process involves creating a replacement tooth or teeth that match your existing teeth in both color and shape. This customized restoration will be affixed to the abutment, completing your smile and enhancing your overall appearance.
Dental implants are a remarkable solution for replacing missing teeth, offering a durable and natural-looking solution that restores both function and aesthetics. Similar to how a tooth exists above the gum and below the gum, so do implants. The dental implant replaces the root of a tooth in the bone, and the dental implant crown replaces the tooth above the gum in the smile. Once the implant has healed a crown is necessary to maintain the functionality and smile esthetics.
The duration of the dental implant restoration process can vary from patient to patient depending on each patient’s individual existing conditions and needs. The restorative process is dependent on ensuring adequate integration of the implant into the bone, a process that on average takes 3-4 months from the time of placement.
Once stability is confirmed, single implant restorations may only require two visits. During the first visit, Dr. McClintock will scan the implant using digital technology to communicate position and angulation to her ceramist. On the second visit, Dr. McClintock will try on and deliver your custom-made restoration. Larger and more complex cases involving multiple implants may take additional visits to ensure quality and accuracy.
It's important to note that, while the process might seem lengthy, it's crucial to ensure the longevity and effectiveness of your dental implants. Dr. McClintock is committed to providing personalized care that prioritizes your comfort and satisfaction throughout the restoration process.
At Precision Dentistry of Williamsburg, we understand that the thought of dental procedures can often cause anxiety due to anticipated pain. However, rest assured that Dr. Devin McClintock and her team prioritize your comfort above all else.
Although we do not anticipate any discomfort during the restorative phase of dental implant treatment, local anesthesia is always available to numb the area around the implant, significantly reducing any potential discomfort. Post-procedure pain is typically minimal and can be managed effectively with over-the-counter pain relievers. Furthermore, Dr. McClintock will provide you with detailed aftercare instructions to ensure a smooth and comfortable recovery.
Remember, every patient's experience can differ, and it's essential to discuss any concerns or questions you may have with Dr. McClintock. She is dedicated to providing clear, informative, and engaging communication, ensuring that you feel comfortable and confident in your dental care decisions.
