Tooth loss doesn’t just affect your self-confidence and your ability to chew and speak properly. Missing teeth can also negatively affect your overall health. Over time, the bone and gum tissue left in the gap of a missing tooth can deteriorate, and this can cause your other teeth to shift.

The best solution for a missing tooth is a dental implant in Dallas. Unlike other restorations like dental crowns or partial dentures, a dental implant is completely permanent. Implants look and feel natural, and with proper oral care, they will likely last the rest of your life.

Dental Implants: A Leap Forward In Dental Technology

Dental implants are one of the biggest advancements in dental technology in the last half-century. Before dental implants, patients who suffered from tooth loss had no truly permanent replacement option. While dentures and dental bridges can also be used to replace missing teeth, they do not offer the same natural look and feel of a dental implant, and they do not last nearly as long. Thanks to dental implants in Dallas, patients at White Dental Spa who have lost their natural teeth can restore the form and function of their smile with a restoration that will last for decades.

Dallas Dental Implants – The Basics

A dental implant consists of two main parts: The implant itself is a small titanium rod that is surgically placed into your gum and jaw tissue, and this acts as an artificial tooth root once it heals. The tooth-shaped dental crown is a natural-looking replacement tooth that is permanently affixed to your implant.

Once the dental implant is placed into your gums where your missing tooth’s root once was, it goes through a process called “osseointegration.” This is the process that occurs when the small titanium rod connects and bonds permanently to the tissue, allowing the implant to act as an artificial tooth root.

The dental crown is typically made of porcelain. It is created to match the shape, size, and color of your original tooth perfectly, providing a completely seamless restoration without disturbing the adjacent teeth.

Dental Implants & Preventing Bone Loss  

The biggest benefit of dental implants compared to alternative treatments is that they prevent bone resorption after tooth loss. Once you lose a natural tooth, there will no longer be any force or pressure transmitted into your gums and jaw bone when you bite and chew. This pressure is what stimulates the bone and gum tissue, and keeps it healthy. When this tissue is no longer stimulated, it begins to waste away.

A dental implant will prevent bone loss because it functions as an artificial root. Pressure and bite force are transmitted through the implant, stimulating the underlying tissue, and preventing it from deterioration. A dental implant can transmit between 80-99% of the bite force of a natural tooth to your gum and jaw.

Why is this so important? Bone resorption after tooth loss can cause changes in your facial structure, and can even make you look older. By opting for dental implants in Dallas, TX, you will preserve your bone and gum tissue, and prevent complications related to bone resorption.

Understanding The Process & What to Expect

The process of placing a dental implant consists of two basic steps. After you’ve been approved for an implant by Dr. Liu or Dr. Tung, they will develop a custom treatment plan for you.

At your first appointment, one of our dentists in Dallas will clean your mouth, numb the area, and make a small incision in the gumline. Then, the post will be placed in the proper position. After this, the area will be sutured, and allowed to heal.

It usually takes between 12-24 weeks for the dental implant to heal completely and bond permanently with the surrounding tissue. During this time, you’ll wear a temporary crown, and our doctors will begin designing your permanent restoration.

Once this process is complete, you’ll come in for your second appointment. Your permanent crown will be checked for a proper fit and finish, and minor adjustments can be made, if necessary. Then, the crown is bonded into place permanently, completing the procedure. You’ll leave our office is a beautiful, refreshed smile that will last a lifetime with proper care!

Frequently asked questions

1

Are dental implants as strong as natural teeth?

In many cases, implants are actually considered stronger than natural teeth and provide full functionality. After treatment, patients will be able to enjoy all of their favorite foods while benefiting from healthy, natural looking prosthetic replacement teeth.
2

Is the implant procedure painful?

During the procedure, your dentist will use a local anesthetic so you shouldn’t feel any pain while in surgery. The bone where the implant is placed does not have many pain-sensing nerves, but if you’re nervous about the surgery, we offer sedative options to make you more comfortable. Immediately after the surgery and for a few days you will likely experience some discomfort. However, any pain from this procedure should be manageable.
3

How successful are dental implants?

Success rates of dental implants vary, depending on where in the jaw the implants are placed as well as the oral hygiene habits of the patient. However, most dental implants have a success rate of up to 98%. With proper care, implants can last a lifetime.
