Dental implants are small, biocompatible titanium posts surgically placed in the jawbone to act as artificial tooth roots. These implants function as a sturdy foundation for supporting dental crowns, bridges, or dentures, offering numerous benefits over traditional methods of replacing missing teeth.

Here’s why dental implants are a revolutionary advancement in dentistry:

• Unmatched Stability: Unlike dentures or bridges that can slip or become loose, dental implants fuse with the jawbone over time, creating a stable and permanent foundation for your replacement teeth. This stability allows you to eat, speak, and smile with confidence, without the fear of slippage.
• Enhanced Functionality: Dental implants restore the natural chewing function missing teeth can compromise. With proper care, dental implants can last a lifetime, allowing you to enjoy a broader range of foods and experience improved oral health.
• Natural Appearance: Dental crowns attached to implants are custom-designed to seamlessly blend with your surrounding teeth in size, shape, and color. The result is a natural-looking smile that restores both aesthetics and functionality.
• Improved Bone Health: Traditional methods of replacing missing teeth, like dentures, can lead to bone loss in the jaw due to lack of stimulation. Dental implants, on the other hand, actually stimulate the jawbone, preventing bone resorption and maintaining a healthy jaw structure.
• Durability and Confidence: Dental implants are built to last, offering a long-term solution for missing teeth. This translates to increased confidence and peace of mind, knowing you can rely on your smile for years to come.

At Robika Clinic, we understand that replacing missing teeth is a significant decision. We offer a personalized approach to dental implant treatment, ensuring a comfortable and successful experience:

Our experienced and board-certified dental implant specialists will discuss your goals, medical history, and suitability for dental implants. A thorough oral examination will be conducted to assess your jawbone health and determine the best course of treatment.

We may utilize advanced 3D imaging technology to create a detailed picture of your jawbone structure and plan the precise placement of your implants. This technology allows for greater accuracy and predictability in the implant placement process.

The implant placement surgery is typically performed under local anesthesia or light sedation, ensuring your comfort throughout the procedure. Our skilled surgeons will carefully place the titanium implants in your jawbone, following the predetermined plan.

Following implant placement, a healing period is required for the jawbone to fuse with the implants, a process known as osseointegration. This typically takes several months, during which time temporary restorations may be placed to maintain functionality and aesthetics.

Once osseointegration is complete, custom-designed dental crowns, bridges, or dentures will be securely attached to the implants, restoring your smile’s full function and aesthetics.

Dental implants are a versatile solution for replacing missing teeth and offer numerous benefits. However, they may not be suitable for everyone. During your consultation, our dentists will discuss your candidacy and address any concerns you may have. Some factors that influence suitability for dental implants include:

• Overall health: Good general health is essential for successful osseointegration and healing.
• Jawbone health: Sufficient bone density is necessary for proper implant placement. In some cases, bone grafting procedures may be required to create a stronger foundation for the implants.
• Gum health: Healthy gums are crucial for a successful outcome. Patients with gum disease will need to undergo treatment to achieve healthy gums before implant placement.
