What is the restoration phase of dental implants?

Dental implants are an effective solution for missing teeth. They consist of a metal post implanted into the jawbone to replicate the missing tooth root.

The restoration phase of dental implants involves attaching the prosthetic components, such as crowns, bridges, or dentures, to the implants that were previously placed in your jawbone. This phase completes the implant process, providing you with fully functional replacement teeth that closely resemble your natural teeth.

What types of restorations are available for dental implants?

There are various restoration options for dental implants, depending on your specific needs. A single dental crown replaces individual missing teeth, implant-supported bridges span larger gaps, and implant-retained dentures offer stable and secure full-arch tooth replacement.

How long does the restoration process take?

The duration of the restoration process varies based on factors like the type of restoration, the number of implants, and your individual healing response. While some cases might be completed in a few appointments, others might require more time to ensure the optimal fit, function, and aesthetics of the final restoration. 

Dr. Kasbidi provides a restoration on your dental implant that feels and looks natural.

Is the dental implant restoration process invasive?

The restoration phase of dental implants is typically less invasive than the implant placement. Most people only experience minimal discomfort, especially when local anesthesia is used during the procedure. 

Dr. Kasbidi prioritizes your comfort. She can discuss medication options if you have any anxiety or concerns.

How long do dental implant restorations last?

Implant-supported restorations are durable and long-lasting. With proper care and maintenance, they provide decades of reliable function. 

Regular dental check-ups, optimal oral hygiene practices, and avoiding habits like teeth grinding contribute to their longevity.

How do I care for dental implant restorations?

You care for dental implant restorations just like your natural teeth. It’s important to maintain optimal oral hygiene practices, including brushing, flossing, and attending dental check-ups. Dr. Kasbidi will provide care instructions specific to your restoration type.
