Dental implants are the ideal tooth replacement solution for permanent tooth loss. Our dentists are highly experienced in dental implant placement and can guide you through every step of treatment.

A dental implant is a small titanium screw that replaces the tooth root and serves as the foundation for your new artificial tooth. Implants fuse securely to the jawbone through a process called osseointegration.

The extraction of the tooth and implant process involves three main phases:

1. Tooth Extraction

If the tooth to be replaced is still present and needs to be removed, the first step is a tooth extraction. This procedure is performed under local anesthesia to ensure your comfort. After the extraction, a healing period is necessary for the extraction site to recover before implant placement.

2. Implant Placement Surgery

During a minor surgery, your dentist will place the implant screw into the empty socket in your jawbone. We administer local anesthesia to keep you comfortable. The implant is left undisturbed for several months as it integrates with your bone.

3. Healing Time

Osseointegration takes between three to six months on average. During this healing phase, we may provide you with a temporary prosthetic tooth so you can maintain your appearance and eat normally.

4. Attachment of the Dental Crown

Once the implant is fused to the bone, we re-open the site and mount an abutment post. Your custom-designed implant crown is then attached to complete your tooth replacement. The crown blends seamlessly with your natural teeth.

At Lansdowne Family Dental, we use 3D imaging and implant parts made from zirconia or titanium for natural-looking, durable restorations.

Dental implants can restore missing teeth for most healthy adults. Ideal candidates have:

• Jawbones fully developed and free from active disease
• Healthy gums with no periodontal disease
• Adequate bone density and volume at the implant site
• Good overall dental and general health
• Realistic expectations about the procedure

Smokers or people with certain medical conditions may still be able to get implants but will need to manage these issues first. Our dentists will determine if you meet the criteria after a complete oral exam.

We also replace multiple adjacent teeth or completely edentulous jaws with implants. Fixed bridges, removable dentures, and hybrid overdentures stabilized by implants are all options.

We know that cost is a major factor when considering implants. That’s why we offer affordable financing plans and work with your insurance when possible. We also have great savings on implants compared to national dental chains.

Some ways we keep our dental implants budget-friendly include:

• CareCredit healthcare credit card accepted
• We work with many insurance plans

Our team will explain all the payment and financing opportunities so you can proceed with the recommended treatment. Investing in dental implants is a wise decision that will protect your oral health for many years.
