Replace Missing Teeth With Secure Implants
At My Macomb Dentist, we use tooth implants because they are the strongest tooth replacement option in dentistry. Implants are made from titanium and naturally merge with the jaw, meaning the implant literally becomes part of your body. We offer traditional implants and mini dental implants, which act just like regular implants but are smaller in diameter and ideal for patients with low jawbone density. Once the implant is healed, we can restore it with new durable teeth that will last years. In many cases, however, you can get your failing teeth extracted and your implants placed on the same day!
Restore Your Еntire Mouth With All-on-4 Dental Implants
If you’re missing all of your teeth on one arch, we can place a series of four or six implants to support new, fixed teeth. The procedure is called All-on-4 or All-on-6, and it’s become a popular treatment method for helping patients without teeth get their smile back. Perks of All-on-4 dental implants:
It’s a cost-effective way to improve the function of your smile. This solution is different from implant-supported dentures or removable dentures because your upper arch is open. Rather than covering the roof of your mouth, we place bridges on the implants to leave your upper palate open, giving you the ability to taste more foods! You’ll leave our office with a set of teeth that day. Our dentists can place implants with a more than 96 percent success rate. If you’re nervous about your treatments, we can even offer three types of sedation dentistry (laughing gas, oral conscious sedation, and IV sedation) to keep you at ease! Sedation can make your procedure more comfortable and less time consuming.
Missing teeth no longer have to define you or your smile. Come to My Macomb Dentist for a better smile and more function. Give us a call today at 555 5555 to see if you’re a candidate for dental implants. We treat patients across Grosse Pointe Michigan.
Full Mouth Dental Implant Replacement Solutions
Unlike dentures, dental implants are designed to not only replace the missing tooth but the missing root is replaced as well; this helps secure the jaw structure and reduce bone lose that naturally occurs after tooth loss. Additional benefits of replacing the root and tooth structure together are the strength, durability and longevity of the restoration. Full mouth dental implants procedures are designed to secure permanent dentures for a whole mouth restoration. Much like a single tooth restoration, a full mouth dental implant restoration provides a more natural look and feel to natural teeth. Also, unlike full mouth dentures, dental implants provide a stronger and more permanent mouth that requires less maintenance than dentures.
Dentures and Bone Lose
Whenever a natural tooth is severely compromised or missing, the absence of a tooth root in the jawbone leads to the bone resorption process. This process leads to significant bone lose over time that can reshape the overall facial structure by collapsing the jawbone inwards after a prolonged period of time.
What if I have been wearing dentures for years?
Technological advancements in modern dentistry has provided numerous permanent solutions for patients who otherwise would not have been good candidates for implants. Patients who have already experienced bone resorption may still be viable candidates for full mouth dental implants through a bone grafting procedure. The bone grafting procedure allows the jawbone to be restructured in a way that will support a lasting full mouth dental implant procedure. Once the grafting has taken hold; the implant procedure will help maintain and promote bone growth in much the same way as a single tooth or multiple tooth implant procedure.
