Find Out If Dental Implants Are Right For Your Smile!

Our team at Mount Hope Family Dentistry is here to help you smile with confidence again. Take our 2-minute quiz to see if you are a candidate for dental implant treatment!

Natural Look and Feel

Dental implants are designed to look, feel, and function like your natural teeth. Implanted into the jawbone, they provide a stable base for replacement teeth that are virtually indistinguishable from natural teeth. This allows for a more natural appearance, boosting confidence in social and professional settings.

Improved Oral Health and Functionality

Unlike traditional dentures or bridges, dental implants do not require adjacent teeth to be altered. This preservation of natural tooth structure contributes to overall better oral health. Additionally, implants help maintain jawbone structure, preventing bone loss that often occurs with tooth loss.

Enhanced Comfort and Convenience

Implants eliminate the discomfort and inconvenience associated with removable dentures. No more worries about slipping or clicking dentures—dental implants are a permanent solution that allow you to speak, eat, and laugh without hesitation.

Consultation and Planning

Your journey toward a restored smile begins with a detailed consultation. One of our skilled dentists, Dr. Bojana Bojovic or Dr. Malik Mahnoor, will use advanced imaging techniques to assess your jawbone structure and discuss the best implant options for your needs.

Implant Placement

The dental implant, a small titanium post, is surgically placed into the jawbone where the tooth is missing. Titanium is biocompatible, meaning it naturally integrates with your bone. The healing process, where the implant bonds with the bone, can take several months, but it is crucial for providing a strong and durable foundation for your new tooth.

Abutment and Crown Placement

Once the implant has fused with the jawbone, an abutment is attached to the post. This component serves as a base for your new tooth, or crown. The crown is custom-made to match the color, shape, and size of your natural teeth, ensuring a seamless integration into your smile.

Follow-Up Care

After the placement of your new tooth, regular follow-up visits are important to ensure the health and functionality of your implant. Our team at Mount Hope Family Dentistry is committed to guiding you through every step of the process and ensuring your comfort and satisfaction.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long do dental implants last?

With proper care and maintenance, dental implants can last a lifetime. Regular dental check-ups and good oral hygiene are essential to the longevity of your implants.

Are dental implants painful?

Most patients report that the discomfort associated with implant surgery is minimal. Local anesthesia is used during the procedure to minimize pain, and sedation options are available for patients with dental anxiety.

How do I care for my dental implants?

Caring for implants is similar to caring for your natural teeth. Daily brushing and flossing, along with regular dental check-ups, are essential to maintaining implant health and preventing gum disease.

Am I a candidate for dental implants?

Most adults in good general health with sufficient jawbone to support implants are candidates. However, smokers or those with chronic disorders such as diabetes may need additional evaluation. Our team can determine if implants are right for you during your consultation.
