Do I Require Dental Implants?
Are you experiencing tooth loss? Despite regular oral care, our teeth can still be affected by everyday wear and tear, leading to missing teeth. Tooth loss can be caused by various factors such as accidents, illness, aging, decay, and more.
Regardless of the reason for tooth loss, the solution is the same: restoring a natural and healthy smile. Dental implants can help repair your oral health and rejuvenate your smile if you have lost one or more teeth.
Dental Implants Are Often Preferred for Tooth Replacements
- Dental implants seamlessly blend with your natural teeth, creating a realistic smile.
- Implants provide a pain-free, secure fit once healed, allowing for comfortable eating.
- Easy maintenance - just brush and floss regularly like you would with natural teeth.
- Implants promote oral health by protecting your jaw and gums, preventing bone loss.
- Designed to last a lifetime, implants offer unmatched durability.
What is the Process of Dental Implants?
Dental implants are titanium posts that are surgically implanted into your jaw to act as artificial "tooth roots," providing a secure base for your new tooth, bridge, or denture. Each implant is capped with a dental crown, which not only restores the appearance of the missing tooth but also provides a functional chewing surface. With our advanced same-day dental crowns at The Art of Smile Dental, our dentists can create and fit your crown in just one visit, making tooth restoration quicker and more efficient than ever before!
What Kind of Dental Implant is Required for Me?
At The Art of Smile Dental, we will suggest the dental implant that is most appropriate for your tooth loss. A consultation with Dr. Zev Segal will assist in determining the best dental implant option to achieve your desired smile.
Single Dental Implant
Losing a tooth can be a result of decay or trauma, but with a single dental implant, you can regain your confidence and smile. By combining a titanium implant with a natural-looking dental crown, you can replace both the root and surface of your missing tooth. With this solution, you can continue to smile, speak, and eat your favorite foods just like you did with your natural tooth!
Implant Retained Dentures
Implant-retained dentures, also referred to as "overdentures," can significantly improve the quality of life for numerous patients. The absence of teeth can create difficulties with everyday tasks such as eating and talking. At our Parsippany, NJ office, patients can find relief from the discomfort and inconvenience of conventional dentures by utilizing these removable "snap-in" dentures that are firmly secured with dental implants.
All-on-4® Dental Implants
All-on-4 dental implants, also referred to as "Teeth-in-a-Day," securely anchor your implants together with a prosthesis, allowing you to use your new teeth right away. This type of implant offers a permanent solution that is not removable. If you are a good candidate for All-on-4 implants, you can anticipate having your restored teeth in just one day. While each case is different, our Parsippany dentists and restorative dentistry team will take care of most of the work prior to your implant surgery.
Hybrid Implant Dentures
Hybrid implant dentures offer a cutting-edge option for patients seeking to replace entire rows of teeth. This advanced dental treatment involves attaching dentures securely to dental implants, providing a permanent solution. If you are experiencing discomfort from traditional dentures slipping and causing gum irritation, hybrid implant dentures may be the perfect solution for you.
What Steps Should I Take to Get Ready for My Dental Implants Procedure?
In certain situations, patients may require initial procedures to get their mouths ready for dental implants. Following a consultation, Dr. Zev Segal may suggest one of the following procedures to ensure that you are prepared for your dental implants:
- Bone Graft
- Gum Graft
- Socket Preservation
What is the Cost of Dental Implants?
At The Art of Smile Dental, we understand that the cost of dental implants can vary depending on several factors. We will provide a precise estimate after a consultation with our team.
