Dental Implants

Do you want a long-term tooth replacement solution? Are you tired of dentures that shift and move unpredictably?

Dental implants offered at our Sugar Land, TX, dental office are tiny titanium posts surgically placed into your jawbone to act as artificial tooth roots. They provide a stable foundation for custom-made restorations such as crowns, bridges, or dentures and provide the look, feel, and function of natural teeth.

The Holistic Benefits of Dental Implants

Dental implants also offer advantages within the realm of holistic dentistry. Replacing missing teeth with implants helps preserve jawbone health, promotes healthy chewing, and prevents adjacent teeth from shifting. Because dental implants are made from biocompatible titanium, they also support overall health and well-being.

The Dental Implant Process

Leading-edge technology at Eagle Dental Texas plays a significant role in the dental implant process. Our dental implant dentists use 3-D cone beam imaging to plan implant placement precisely, resulting in an efficient experience and excellent long-term outcomes.

Your journey to a restored smile with dental implants involves the following steps:

• A comprehensive consultation to assess your dental needs and determine if you are a suitable candidate for dental implants.
• Implant placement planning and preparation using advanced 3-D cone beam imaging.
• Surgically placing the dental implant post into your jawbone.
• Waiting for a healing process called osseointegration to occur over the next 3–6 months. The implant fuses with your jawbone during this time, providing a solid foundation for your new tooth restoration.
• Designing and placing a custom-made dental restoration, such as a crown, bridge, or denture, to complete your beautiful, natural-looking smile.

Who Is a Good Candidate for Dental Implants?

Ideal candidates have good oral and general health and sufficient jawbone density to support the implant. If you have missing teeth, are unhappy with dentures that shift and move, or are seeking long-term tooth replacement, dental implants may be the right choice for you.

Our dentists may recommend dental bone grafting if you don't have adequate bone mass to support an implant. This procedure involves adding bone material from your body or a donor to your jawbone to increase its density and support the tooth implant.

A sinus lift is another type of bone grafting procedure we recommend when there's insufficient bone height in the upper jaw. The procedure involves lifting the sinus and placing bone graft material beneath it to create adequate space for the implant.

If necessary, our dentists can discuss these procedures with you to ensure successful dental implant placement.
