What Are Dental Implants, and What Do They Do?

Dental implants are an excellent option for people who have lost teeth. Dental implants are placed in the jawbone to hold a replacement tooth or bridge. Dental implants are made of titanium and other materials compatible with the human body.

Dental implants are considered a safe and effective way to replace missing teeth. Millions of people have dental implants, which is growing yearly. We can use dental implants to replace one tooth or several teeth. We can also use dental implants to support a denture or bridge. 

Dental implants in Alamogordo NM, are placed by our team at

Mountain View Dental, including Dr. Westover, Dr. Slade, Dr. Griffin, and Dr. Peterson. The first step is to consult our team to see if dental implants are right for you. Dental implants require a healthy jawbone and good oral hygiene.

If you are a good candidate for dental implants, the next step is to have a surgical procedure to place the dental implants in your jawbone.

After we place the implants, they will need to heal for a few months. During this time, the implants will bond with the bone.

Once the implants have bonded with the bone, our team will place a small post on the implant. This post will protrude through the gum tissue.

The final step is to place the artificial tooth or teeth on the posts. We can use dental implants to replace one tooth or several teeth.

 

Who is a Good Candidate for Dental Implants?

Most people who have lost teeth due to injury, disease, or decay are good candidates for dental implants. The best way to find out if you are a candidate is to schedule a consultation with us. We’ll thoroughly evaluate your dental situation and provide some recommendations to help answer your questions about dental implants.

Dental implants have many benefits. Dental implants are:

  • Natural-looking
  • Strong and durable
  • Allow you to eat and speak like normal
  • Easy to care for
  • An excellent long-term solution for missing teeth

The cost of dental implants can vary widely, depending on several factors. These include the type of implant you choose and the number of implants you need. However, we will help you understand the specific costs of your customized treatment during your consultation. We work with many insurance groups and provide dental membership plans to help finance your dental work.

Dental implants can last a lifetime with proper care, making them an excellent investment in oral health. 

 

What is the Recovery Time for Dental Implants?

The recovery time for dental implants is different for everyone. Dental implants require a surgical procedure to place the implants in your jawbone. After the surgery, you will need to take it easy for a few days. You may have some swelling and bruising, but most people feel well enough to return to normal activities within a few days. 

The implants can take several months to bond with the bone before you are ready for the final crown placement. You will need to avoid putting too much pressure on the implants during this time, and we can provide you with a temporary crown. We will give you specific instructions on how to care for your mouth after the surgery.
