Benefits of Dental Implants

 

  • They look, feel and act like natural teeth.
  • They need no special treatment: just brushing and flossing plus cleanings and examinations at our office, like your natural teeth
  • They help maintain the sturdiness of the bone in the jaw
  • They can be used not only as tooth replacements but also as secure support for bridges or dentures

 

How Are Dental Implants Done?

The first step is to ensure that the teeth and gums are healthy and that there is sturdy bone in the area to receive an implant. Then the procedure goes as follows:

  1. The gum is opened and a slender post is placed in the jaw. This post—the implant—is made from titanium and will act as the root for the replacement tooth.
  2. The titanium implant is allowed to heal for three months or more. In this time, the titanium will bond with the bone in the jaw.
  3. When healing is complete, the replacement tooth will be securely attached to the top of the implant. 
Additionally, to speed your recovery time and prevent infection, we use an easy yet powerful process involving “platelet-rich fibrin,” which is the medical name for a component found in your own blood.

Bone Grafting

Occasionally, the ideal areas for dental implants do not have sufficient bone quantity to support the implants. In these cases, it is often necessary to "borrow" bone from another area of your mouth and graft it into the deficient area. Often, the area of choice is from the chin or in the back of the jaw where your wisdom teeth used to be.

Infection Prevention with Platelet-Rich Fibrin

The use of platelet-rich fibrin is a relatively new procedure that helps us reduce the chance of infection and speed healing after an extraction or placement of dental implants. Platelet-rich fibrin is a substance that comes from your own blood. During your treatment, we take a sample of your blood just like when you have a blood test. We put this sample into a centrifuge (a high-speed spinning device) to separate it into different parts and isolate the platelet-rich fibrin. 

When we separate out this component and add it to an area where a tooth has been extracted, there’s less chance of developing dry socket and its painful problems. Healing is faster and the body can more easily prevent infection in the area.


We also use this procedure after dental implants are placed to improve integration of the implant with bone. When added to an extraction site, PRF helps the body rebuild strong, sturdy bone faster.


If you have any questions, please call our office.
