DENTAL IMPLANTS SAN FRANCISCO, CA

THE DENTAL IMPLANT SURGERY

Dental implants are such a remarkable tooth replacement option because they have all the benefits of natural teeth. They won’t slip and slide around in your mouth like dentures, and they don’t have to be removed during eating and brushing. In fact, placing a dental implant actually helps keep your jaw bone strong and healthy!

Dental implants offer many wonderful benefits because they:

• Are realistic and indistinguishable from natural teeth.
• Renew your self-confidence.
• Help control bone loss and maintain your facial aesthetics when the implant post fuses with the jaw bone.
• Can replace one tooth, multiple teeth, or an entire arch of teeth.
• Allow you to enjoy your favorite foods again.

During your consultation, your oral surgeon will work with you to determine if a dental implant is the right treatment for you and your condition.

The Dental Implant Process

Our oral surgeons have received extensive training in dental implant placement. When you receive tooth implants at our practice, you can expect your experience to go much like the following:

• The consultation. This is typically the first time that you visit our office. One of our oral surgeons will evaluate your condition and create a treatment plan that suits your needs.
• Bone grafting. You need enough jaw bone to support an implant. Bone grafting can increase the quantity of bone. This will be performed prior to your surgery and will allow you to become a candidate for dental implants.
• The day of surgery. When the anesthesia has taken effect, your oral surgeon will make a small incision in your gum tissue, insert the implant post into your jaw bone, and stitch the surgical site closed.
• Recovery. It’s very important that you heal properly because this post will act as the new tooth root for your artificial tooth, and you must take care of the surgical site as it heals. You will be given detailed post-operative instructions to ensure you have a smooth and speedy recovery. Not following the instructions may result in implant failure.
• The crown placement. When it is time, your oral surgeon or restorative dentist will place your permanent, custom crown. This crown is specifically made to match the color, shape, and size of your teeth, making your implant indistinguishable from your natural teeth.
