A dental implant restoration is a procedure used to replace a missing tooth by placing an artificial root (usually titanium) into the jawbone. Once healed, this implant supports a crown, bridge, or denture—creating a functional and natural-looking replacement that blends seamlessly with your smile.
Dental implant restoration is often needed if you’re missing one or more of your natural teeth. Missing dentition can be more than just a cosmetic issue. It might be difficult for you to eat, chew and even speak if you’re missing enough of your smile. Fortunately, dental implants can replace what you’re lacking so that your smile and quality of life is improved.
You may be a good candidate if you have healthy gums and sufficient jawbone to support an implant. If bone loss is present—due to periodontal disease or other factors—additional treatments like bone grafting or sinus lifts may be necessary to ensure a stable foundation.
The restoration process takes place in several stages:
Consultation – A full dental evaluation, including X-rays, to determine if implants are right for you.
Surgical Placement – The implant is inserted into your jawbone under local anesthesia.
Healing Period – Osseointegration occurs as the bone fuses with the implant over 3–6 months.
Final Restoration – A custom-made crown, bridge, or denture is securely attached to the implant.
Long-Lasting Results – Implants can last decades with proper care.
Protects Jawbone Health – Prevents bone loss and maintains facial structure.
No Impact on Neighboring Teeth – Unlike bridges, implants don’t require filing down adjacent teeth.
Improved Quality of Life – Enjoy eating, speaking, and smiling without worry or discomfort.
