Dental Implants in Essex
At Essex Dental Group, we recognize the significant impact that losing a tooth can have on your quality of life, affecting not just your smile but also your ability to eat and speak comfortably. Offering a reliable and long-lasting solution, our highly skilled team is proud to provide the transformative procedure of dental implants to our patients.
Dental implants consist of a titanium post surgically placed into the jawbone, an abutment connecting to the post, and a custom-made crown that closely resembles a natural tooth. They deliver the look, feel, and function of natural teeth.
Here’s an outline of the dental implant process at Essex Dental Group:
- Start with a Comprehensive Review: Your new smile begins with an in-depth evaluation to see if dental implants are the right fit for you. The comprehensive review includes an assessment of your jawbone’s density and ability to support an implant.
- Custom Treatment Planning: We craft a detailed treatment plan, tailored specifically to your oral needs and aspirations. The plan covers the stages of the implant surgery, including the insertion of the titanium implant, abutment, and the final crown.
- Implant Placement Procedure: With local anesthetic, our skilled implant specialist will carefully insert the titanium implant into your jawbone, to ensure your comfort throughout the process.
- Healing and Bonding Period: Over a period of several weeks to months, the implant will bond with your jawbone. This is a process known as osseointegration, providing a strong base for your new tooth.
- Finalizing with Abutment and Crown: We attach the abutment, after successful application of your tailor-made crown to the implant and this concludes the restoration process.
- Ongoing Maintenance: Regular follow up visits are extremely important to monitor the health and performance of your new implant.
Dental implants are the most lifelike solution for missing teeth. With implants, you can live a life without concern for your smile and enjoy eating as you normally would.
