Implant Solutions to Meet Your Unique Dental Needs

Getting implants is a life-changing decision for anyone suffering from tooth loss. Implants will not only restore your smile’s appearance, but they’ll also give you strong, functional teeth for talking, laughing, and eating. Dental implant restorations offer a secure, permanent teeth replacement solution for daily living. Little Elm, Texas, residents can turn to Drs. Vidya Suri and Thai-Son Tran from Frisco Elm Dental for implant treatment. 

Implant Solutions Tailored to Your Needs 

Dental implants aren’t replacement teeth. They’re titanium posts that support your new teeth like artificial tooth roots. The implant process can be divided into these steps:

1. Consultation – A consultation with our team will determine if you’re a good implant candidate. If so, we’ll map out your treatment and schedule an appointment for implant surgery. 
2. Implant placement – Implants are placed through oral surgery, which is performed under local anesthetic to avoid discomfort and pain. Sedation is also an option to keep you comfortable and relaxed during this phase of your treatment.   
3. Healing – Once the implants are in place, we’ll wait for them to fuse with your bone tissue and heal. This process is called osseointegration and can take months to complete. It’s essential to the success of your treatment as it provides optimal stability for your new teeth. 
4. Restorations – Lastly, we’ll top the implants with abutments (connectors) and your restoration to complete your smile. 

Dental implant restorations range from a dental crown to a fixed bridge to implant dentures for full mouth restoration. Here’s what you should know about each:

• Dental Crowns
  Dental crowns are paired with single implants to replace single missing teeth. Each missing tooth gets its own implant and crown. Porcelain crowns look, function, and feel like natural teeth, making them a great choice for replacing lost teeth. We’ll customize your crown to look exactly like your natural teeth so that no one can tell the difference.
• Fixed Dental Bridge
  If you’re missing several teeth in a row, we may recommend a fixed dental bridge to rebuild your smile. This entails using two or more implants to support a series of artificial teeth. We’ll design a bridge that seamlessly fills the gap and supports adjacent teeth to keep them aligned. Implant bridges work with adjacent teeth to restore your biting and chewing abilities so you can eat confidently and easily.
• Implant Dentures
  Implant-supported dentures offer a permanent solution for replacing all your teeth and making your grin whole and healthy again. Unlike traditional dentures, which are prone to slipping or shifting in your mouth, implant dentures never come loose. For your convenience, we can secure an entire arch of top or bottom teeth with only four implants placed in key locations in your jaw (all-on-4 treatment). Your original smile can be reconstructed like new with implant dentures.
