What Are Dental Implants?

Dental implants are today's most advanced replacement for missing teeth. A dental implant fully replaces a missing tooth, including its root. We use state-of-the-art high-end implant materials.


The dental implant process begins by extracting the damaged tooth. If the tooth has been missing for some time, you may need a sinus lift because tooth loss causes bone loss or a bone graft if traditional implants are placed. With our advanced state-of-the-art Mini Dental Implants in virtually all cases bone grafting is not needed. If a tooth is extracted, then a bone regeneration graft is needed to maintain bone height and width.


Our revolutionary Mini Dental Implants are a single piece and require no cutting of the gum and minimal tapping to be placed fully into the bone with the final realistic looking crown placed the same day or within a few weeks. Traditional Implants consist of a titanium post that is placed into the jaw bone and an abutment that holds a lifelike dental crown. The traditional dental implant surgery site and dental implant post takes several months for the bone to grow around it before the dentist can place the abutment and crown.

Benefits of Mini Dental Implants

  • Dental implants provide a seamless look, blending in perfectly with your existing teeth. We can replace single teeth, create snap-on dentures or a full arch using implants.
  • They can last for a lifetime with proper care and the crown lasting for decades, or the rest of your life.
  • Dental implants prevent teeth from moving out of position which is important because misaligned teeth can increase the risk of tooth decay.
  • You can have anything you like to eat or drink with dental implants and will not have to adapt your diet and not taste your food as you would with regular dentures.
  • Dental implants are easy-care, requiring the same routine as healthy natural teeth.
  • Dental implant placement can be pain free.

 

Are You a Good Candidate for Implants?

People with missing or compromised teeth are often excellent candidates for dental implants. People who get implants should be in generally good oral health, with tooth decay and gum disease under control. Good candidates for implants also have adequate bone mass in the jaw.

Single Dental Implant

Dental implants are small anchors made of a biocompatible metal called titanium that are placed in the jawbone to replace missing teeth in the mouth. After placement, the anchors will fuse with the bone known as osseointegration and the permanent crowns can be placed at the same time the implants are placed or within a few weeks after placement. While, traditional implants require a few months before crowns can be placed for osseointergration to occur and are approximately double the price of Mini Dental Implants.

Implant Supported Bridge

Implant Supported Bridges

An implant supported bridge is a restorative solution for spaces where three or more adjacent teeth are missing. This restoration typically requires two or more implants to support the bridge that provides a functional and aesthetic replacement for a patient’s natural teeth.

What are the advantages of an implant supported bridge?

Because of the natural look and feel and the functional stability provided by the implants, implant supported bridges are an effective solution to replace multiple missing teeth. A traditional bridge uses teeth on either side of the missing tooth space for support, and preparing teeth for crowns can weaken them. Because these teeth serve as attachments, they are subject to additional forces that can damage both healthy and compromised teeth or bone tissues.

A dental implant supported bridge replaces missing teeth by placing two or more dental implants rather than adjacent teeth. These implants avoid putting any additional stress on your natural teeth and help preserve the health and function of the surrounding bone tissue and teeth.

Fully Edentulous (Toothless) Solutions including All-on-X

For patients missing many or all of their teeth, implant retained or implant supported dentures may be an alternative to traditional dentures. These solutions can simulate the look and feel of natural teeth and stay fixed in place with the implants acting as anchors. Using implants for retention or the support of dentures allows for a smaller and more comfortable base and less shifting of the prosthesis during use.

Implant Full Arch Replacement

Fix-on-Six and Zirconia full arch mini dental implant tooth replacements are like having your teeth again or even more wonderful than your teeth were. You are able to eat and taste all your favorite foods. The timing and expense of these options are so dramatically less expensive and better than traditional implant cases. For example, in traditional cases, the gum needs to be cut, reflected and then sutured so the bone can be filed down while with Mini Dental Implants that is not needed.

Implant Supported Snap-on Dentures

An implant supported snap-on denture requires the placement of four to six dental implants as “anchors” to provide a sturdier fit and minimal mobility for your denture. With implant supported dentures, there is no plate covering the roof of the mouth, so speaking and eating are more natural and comfortable than with traditional dentures. As well as, being able to truly taste what your eating by exposing many taste buds that are on the roof of our mouth. For qualifying patients, our doctors will be able to complete the removal of all teeth and the placement of a temporary snap-on denture arch on the same day.

Implant Retained Dentures

Available for full or partial dentures, implant retained dentures require the placement of two or more dental implants to secure the dentures in the mouth. This type of denture will “snap” onto the implants and can be removed for cleaning at night.

Guided Dental Implant Placement

3D technology allows our doctors to more accurately place dental implants using minimally invasive techniques that improve patient comfort and healing while maintaining the highest standard of treatment and restoring your smile.

The 3D digital guidance provided by this specialized software helps our team plan the implant placement procedure. It also allows the patient to visualize the implant’s future location and its support for the final restoration.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is dental implant surgery painful?

Many patients are nervous about dental implant surgery, but most have no pain and little discomfort. One of our patients even told us it was easier than getting her teeth cleaned.

What can I eat after implant surgery?

Following mini implant placement, we ask for the first few weeks that you stimulate the bone to grow stronger and fuse with the implants. In most cases, this means eating most normal foods but not hard, chewy or crunchy foods. Those hard, chewy and crunchy type of foods may loosen rather than stimulate the implants. Standard dental implants are quite different.
Here’s a typical standard dental implant recommendation which as you can see is quite different than mini dental implants.

For the first few days following dental implant surgery, we recommend liquids such as soups and meal-replacement drinks. For the next few days we recommend soft foods such as ice cream, yogurt, smoothies. Cooked cereal and scrambled eggs are also good choices. After about two weeks, you will still want to avoid seeds, popcorn, and anything crunchy or chewy, but you can generally eat as you normally would as long as you don't chew with a newly placed implant and instead chew on the opposite side of your mouth. Avoiding chewing near the implant area helps to minimize any kind of movement around a newly placed implant.

How long does the dental implant process take?

For Crowns, Bridges or Snap-on Dentures, they can be placed the same day the implants are placed or within several weeks of the implant placement. For Fix-on-Six and Zirconia full arch replacements, it can take a little longer for these high quality replacements to be ideal. With tooth extractions, temporaries will be used and it will take a little longer so that healing is complete.

The process for standard implants takes approximately six months, from removing the damaged tooth, placing the dental implant, and then crown placement.

When your new implant and tooth replacement is complete, it is so fantastic in what it will do for you. A beautiful smile and the ability to eat and taste all of your favorite foods!!!
