What are Dental Implant Restorations?

Dental implants are a modern, permanent solution for tooth loss that look and function like natural teeth. Our implant restorations seamlessly replace missing teeth by anchoring an artificial root—made of biocompatible titanium—into the jawbone. This root supports a crown, bridge, or denture, creating a stable, durable restoration. Our implant-supported dentures and bridges are ideal for patients needing multiple replacements, ensuring both aesthetics and functionality. 

How Dental Implants Work for Long-Lasting Tooth Replacement:

Dental implants are made up of three key components:

  • Titanium Post: Acts as an artificial tooth root, integrating with your jawbone for stability.
  • Abutment: Connects the implant post to the final restoration.
  • Restoration (Crown, Bridge, or Denture): A custom-designed crown or bridge that looks and feels like a natural tooth.

Why Choose Implant Dental Care Over Traditional Dentures?

  • Stability: Implants remain securely in place without slipping or shifting.
  • Bone Health: Implants stimulate the jawbone, preventing bone loss that often occurs with missing teeth.
  • Natural Look and Feel: Implants provide a realistic appearance and comfortable fit, restoring confidence.

Determining Your Eligibility for Implant Dentistry:

Not everyone is a candidate for implants, but many can benefit from this advanced solution. Ideal candidates generally:

  • Have sufficient bone density to support the implant
  • Are in good oral health, with no untreated gum disease
  • Are committed to maintaining proper oral hygiene

If you’re uncertain about your candidacy, we welcome you to schedule an evaluation to determine if implants are right for you.

Implant Restoration Options: From Single Tooth to Full Mouth Restoration

Our custom options ensure each patient finds the right solution for their unique needs. We offer a range of implant solutions:

  • Single-Tooth Implants: Perfect for replacing a single missing tooth.
  • Multi-Tooth Bridges: Ideal for replacing multiple teeth in a row.
  • All-on-4 Full-Mouth Restorations: An efficient solution for patients needing full upper or lower arch restoration.

The Dental Implant Process at Southcoast Dental:

At Southcoast Dental, we follow a streamlined process to ensure comfort and quality:

  1. Initial Consultation and CBCT Imaging: We assess your jawbone and oral health to create a personalized treatment plan.
  2. Implant Placement: Using advanced imaging for precision, we place the implant securely in your jaw.
  3. Healing and Osseointegration: The implant fuses with your bone over a few months, creating a stable base.
  4. Final Restoration: Once healed, we attach a custom crown, bridge, or denture, completing your new smile.

Post-Implant Surgery Recovery:

Recovery from dental implant surgery typically takes a few days, though complete healing can take several months. During the healing phase, we’ll provide guidance for managing any discomfort and maintaining good oral health. Our team is here to support you every step of the way.

Durability and Lifespan of Dental Implants:

When well-maintained, dental implants can last a lifetime, offering a secure, worry-free solution. Routine dental visits, proper hygiene, and care, will help ensure the longevity of your implants. Many patients find this investment in their oral health and appearance is well worth it.

How to Care for Your Dental Implant Restorations:

  • Brush twice daily with a soft-bristled brush.
  • Floss regularly, using floss designed for implants if needed.
  • Visit us for regular check-ups to ensure your implants remain healthy.

These habits will help you enjoy a lifelong smile with implants that look and feel natural.
