DENTAL IMPLANTS
Replacing Missing Teeth With Dental Implants
At Bellagio Dental Implant Center, we believe that no patient should leave our office with missing teeth, thanks to Dental Implants. Your dental implants are designed to provide a foundation for replacement teeth that look, feel and function like natural teeth. The person who has lost teeth regains the ability to eat virtually anything and can “Smile with Confidence!”, knowing that teeth appear natural and that facial contours will be preserved. The implants we use are tiny titanium posts which are placed into the jawbone where teeth are missing. The bone bonds with the titanium, creating a strong foundation for artificial teeth. In addition, dental implants can help preserve facial structure, preventing the bone deterioration which occurs when teeth are missing.
At Bellagio Dental Implant Center, Dental implants are changing the way people live! We are inspiring self-confidence through recreating or improving your natural smile, restoring your ability to eat the foods you enjoy and so you can speak and smile with pride! With our expertly placed implants, people are rediscovering the comfort and confidence to eat, speak, laugh and enjoy life.
If, like many others, you feel implant dentistry is the choice for you, we ask that you undergo a dental/radiographic examination and health history. During the consultation visits, your specific needs and considerations will be addressed by either Dr. Farrah or Dr. Gholami. Your questions and concerns are important to us and our team will work with you very closely to help make your procedure a success.
Gum disease and decay are both caused by bacterial plaque. Plaque is a colorless, sticky film that adheres to your teeth at the gum lime. From eating and drinking various items, plaque is constantly forming on the teeth, and must be removed by brushing or flossing daily. Failure to remove plaque can result in gum disease, a hardening of the plaque (called tartar) or other dental detriments.
Dental Implant Surgery
For most patients, the placement of dental implants involves two surgical procedures. First, implants are placed within your jawbone. For the first three to six months following surgery, the implants are beneath the surface of the gums, gradually bonding with the jawbone. You should be able to wear a temporary appliance and function well during this time. At the same time, your North Palm Beach dental implants dentist designs the final bridgework or denture, which will ultimately improve both function and aesthetics.
After the dental implant has bonded to the jawbone, the second phase begins. The surgeon will uncover the implants and attach a small healing collar. Our top North Palm Beach dental implant dentists, Dr. Farrah and Dr. Gholami, can then start making your new teeth. An impression must be taken. Then posts or attachments can be connected to the implants. The replacement teeth are then made over the posts or attachments. The entire procedure usually takes six to eight months. Most patients do not experience any disruption in their daily life.
