What are tooth implants?
Dental implants have existed for over 30 years now. They allow you to experience the closest thing to natural teeth. The artificial tooth is custom made to match your own teeth. If you wouldn’t know you have dental implants you would never know you had a tooth implant.
Dental Implants procedure
A dental implant is the base for placing artificial teeth. You can see them as a strongly found replacement root. To restore your teeth the artificial tooth needs to be attached to your jawbone. The tooth implant makes this happen. A dental crown is placed upon the dental implant. Because the crown is custom made it will always fit perfectly.
The tooth implant procedure starts with setting up an individualized treatment plan. This plan is a roadmap for the best possible dental care and results. The second step is placement of the titanium root implant. The implant is placed into the bone. After six to twelve weeks the jawbone is completely healed. The titanium implant is now a sturdy base. On top of the base abutment is placed. The abutment connects the new artificial tooth to the dental implant.
The artificial tooth, better known as a dental crown, is custom made to perfectly fit and match your teeth. By making a model of your complete teeth the dental team knows how the crown needs to be shaped. When the crown is placed onto the tooth implant you will forget you ever lost a tooth.

How painful is the placement of dental implants?
The procedure of dental implants is less painful than tooth extraction according to most patients. Local anesthesia is used to reduce the sense of pain.
