Implant Dentistry 101
Dental implants represent a revolutionary step in restoring full dental function and aesthetics, but the process can seem daunting to those unfamiliar with the procedure. Here’s a straightforward guide to what patients can expect:
Consultation and Planning:
- Discuss aesthetic and functional goals so the dentist can tailor a treatment plan.
- Review insurance/financial obligations so there are no surprises once the surgery is completed.
Implant Placement:
- The procedure is typically quick, lasting about one hour for a single implant.
- LivingArt uses only the highest-quality materials for implants, ensuring comfort and a natural feel.
Abutment and Crown Placement:
- Anywhere from three-to-six months after the gums heal, an abutment is attached to the implant.
- Two or three weeks after the abutment, the patient returns to get fitted for a custom-made crown.
This multi-step process ensures that the implant is both functional and aesthetically pleasing, providing a solution that is as close to natural teeth as possible.
