What is a Dental Implant?
A dental implant is a tooth replacement option that’s designed to replace both the root and crown portions of teeth. This means that oral surgery is needed in order to replace teeth in this way. The natural root is replaced with a titanium post, which slowly integrates with your bone and soft tissue. The crown then attaches directly to the post, giving it a stable foundation that can withstand daily chewing, grinding, brushing, flossing, and of course, smiling!

How Dental Implants Can Revitalize Your Smile!
Overall, dental implants are designed to mimic teeth almost exactly, ensuring that you can live your life without having to worry about micromanaging your diet or making sure your restoration doesn’t slip out of place while in use. As a result of the implant integrating with your jaw, your tooth replacement will last for many decades when you practice at-home oral care and maintain routine visits to our dental office. In many cases, dental implants last for the remainder of the patient’s life, which should give you added confidence in their longevity.
Dental Implant Solutions
Not only are dental implants long-lasting and incredibly natural-looking, but they are quite versatile as well. If you need to replace single or multiple teeth at a time, there’s a solution at Anthem Dentistry!
Missing One Tooth
To replace single teeth, a titanium post is placed inside of the jaw, then given several months of time to heal. After the healing process is complete, we can cover the implant with a single porcelain crown. Unlike dental bridges, you won’t have to modify existing teeth just to bridge the open gap in your smile.
Missing Multiple Teeth
Multiple consecutive teeth can just as easily be replaced as single teeth. To do this, we place a pair of dental implants into your jaw, then create a custom bridge that affixes to both of them simultaneously. This method is ideal for replacing two, three or even four consecutive teeth at a time.
Missing All of Your Teeth
If you’re tired of using your full or partial denture or it simply does not feel comfortable any longer, attaching it to dental implants may be a better option. By placing several dental implants throughout the jaw, we can attach a full top or bottom arch to them. You don’t even need a dedicated implant for each tooth you replace!
Dental Implant FAQs
If you’re missing teeth, dental implants in Anthem are a great solution to rebuild your smile. As the only treatment to replicate the entire structure of a tooth, they offer exceptional benefits not possible using any other option. Although you’d like to enjoy their advantages for yourself, we know you still have several concerns before you’re ready to commit to the procedure. We’ll explain everything during your initial consultation. In the meantime, here are the answers to a few of the most common questions patients ask us about dental implants to ease your apprehensions.
How long do dental implants last?
Dental implants are proven to last for 30 years or longer with the right care over the years. There are several things that can influence the longevity of your new smile, like your health, lifestyle, and oral hygiene habits. You can protect your investment and ensure it thrives for a lifetime by brushing your teeth at least twice a day and flossing every night. Pay extra attention when cleaning your implants and abutments. Besides your home oral hygiene, don’t forget to visit your dentist at least twice a year for a cleaning and checkup. Routine appointments will remove any accumulations that can lead to an infection. Your dentist will also monitor your oral health to look for any concerns. Treating any issues while they are still small will prevent them from turning into a big problem down the road.
Are dental implants successful?
Dental implants have undergone several improvements over the years to make them the most reliable option to replace missing teeth. When performed by a qualified implant dentist in Anthem, they offer predictable results. In fact, they have over a 95% success rate; however, complications can arise if you don’t commit to your oral hygiene and visit your dentist regularly. We’ll explain how to protect your investment to ensure the long-term success of your dental implants.
What should I do if my dental implant feels loose?
Your implant post will serve as a root, stimulating new bone growth to allow your jaw to fuse to it through a process called osseointegration. As a result, your dental implant should never feel loose; however, if it begins to wobble, it can be a sign of a serious problem. It’s best to contact your dentist right away to pinpoint the source of the issue. Quick detection can help to prevent complete dental implant failure.
Do dental implants feel natural?
A dental implant recreates the entire structure of your missing tooth, not just the portion visible above the gum line. You’ll enjoy a solution that feels natural because it doesn’t rely on other teeth for support. Instead, it is anchored to your jawbone to provide a stable foundation. You can regain as much as 70% of your natural biting force to enjoy your favorite foods. Since dental implants don’t have nerve endings, you won’t need to worry about any tooth sensitivity. If you have any discomfort from heat, cold, or pressure, it will originate from the surrounding gums.
