What Are Dental Implants?

A dental implant is a small titanium post that acts as an artificial tooth root. It is surgically placed in the jawbone, creating a stable foundation for a custom-made crown, bridge, or denture.

After placement, the implant bonds with the bone through a process called osseointegration, forming a stable, permanent foundation for the new tooth. Besides replacing missing teeth, implants prevent bone loss and preserve your facial structure. They are strong and functional, allowing you to enjoy the strength and function of natural teeth.

Whether you are missing one tooth, multiple teeth, or require a complete full-arch restoration, Valley Smiles provides a complete implant solution specific to your dental health goals.

Why Dental Implants Are the Ideal Option

Dental implants are considered the best solution for tooth replacement because they integrate with your bone and function like natural teeth. Unlike conventional dentures or bridges, implants do not rely on neighboring teeth for support. This retains the integrity of your surrounding teeth and prevents the bone loss that typically follows tooth loss.

Advantages Associated with Dental Implants:

• Natural Function: Mimicking the exact processes that a root and crown undertake, chewing and speech are brought back to normal.
• Bone Conservation: Keeping the jawbone from long-lasting adverse effects through stimulation.
• Durability: If preserved correctly, an implant can last for years, though it may also live for decades.
• Comfort: As these are tightly anchored in bone, the stability of implants makes them highly comfortable for patients, reducing the risk of over-shift prosthesis.
• Healthier Mouth: These will improve future mouth health and hygiene, as they do not disturb any neighbouring teeth.

At Valley Smiles, we take the time to review your medical history and overall oral health to determine the best treatment plan for you. Our treatments are custom-made for precision, comfort, and durability.

The Steps of the Dental Implantation Procedure in Chatsworth CA

Two key points in providing effective dental implants are meticulous planning and patient-centered care. The basic principle of our step-by-step individualization process is to provide each patient with special attention, which means keeping him well informed about every step of the process from start to finish.

1. Consultation and Evaluation

It all begins with the consultation phase. It is in this phase that dental procedures, X-rays, digital scans, and impressions are likely used to evaluate the structure of the bones and the overall health of the mouth. By doing this, we will determine whether you qualify for implants, and we will discuss your treatment objectives and expectations with you.

2. Treatment Planning

During this phase, preparation is individualised from the assessment as a whole. It will take into account the number of implants to be placed, their locations, and the type of restoration to be attached to the implants. In more advanced cases with lower bone density, additional considerations may include bone grafting or sinus lift procedures to augment this foundation before implant placement.

3. Placing the Implant

The post for the implant made of titanium is surgically implanted into the jawbone using local anesthesia. It is inserted in a way that maximizes stability and healing. Within several months after implant placement, the bone will fuse around it; this is a fairly critical healing stage for the long-term success and durability of the implant.

4. Healing and Osseointegration

In this stage, the implant gains a solid grip in the jawbone, and thus, it will be equally strong as an anchor for the artificial tooth. It will also be possible at this time to place a temporary restoration or two for function or aesthetics.

5. Plenty of Placement of Restoration

Once integrated, the abutment is attached, which connects the implant to the crown or bridge. At last, the restoration of the oral patient is placed and secured above the abutment. This guarantees an aesthetic, functioning tooth replacement that should last for many years.
