Dental implants are implant-supported restorations that mimic the look, feel and function of natural teeth, providing a long-lasting solution for individuals seeking tooth replacement. Dental implants consist of a titanium post that is surgically placed into the jawbone, serving as a sturdy foundation for replacement teeth and are designed to blend seamlessly with existing teeth, enhancing overall smile aesthetics.

Key Features and Advantages:

Dental implants offer numerous benefits, making them a preferred choice for tooth replacement.

  • Stability: Implants fuse with the jawbone through a process called osseointegration, creating a secure and stable foundation.
  • Durability: With proper care, dental implants can last a lifetime, eliminating the need for frequent replacements.
  • Functional Restoration: Implants restore full chewing function, allowing individuals to enjoy a varied diet and maintain oral health.
  • Preservation of Bone: Implants stimulate the jawbone, preventing bone loss and maintaining facial structure.

Dental Implant Procedure:

The dental implant process involves several stages to ensure successful integration and restoration.

  • Consultation: Dr. John Han assesses your oral health and determines candidacy for dental implants.
  • Implant Placement: A titanium post is surgically inserted into the jawbone, serving as an artificial tooth root.
  • Healing Period: Over a few months, osseointegration occurs, during which the implant fuses with the bone.
  • Restoration: Once the implant is fully integrated, a custom-made crown, bridge or denture is attached, completing the restoration.

Suitability and Long-Term Impact:

Dental implants are a versatile solution suitable for various tooth replacement scenarios.

  • Single Tooth Replacement: Implants can replace individual missing teeth without affecting adjacent teeth.
  • Multiple Teeth Replacement: Implants can support bridges or dentures for replacing several missing teeth.
  • Improved Quality of Life: Dental implants enhance speech, chewing ability and self-confidence, positively impacting daily life.
