Dental Implants

4

You don’t have to settle for dentures or bridges if you’re missing a tooth or teeth. Dental implants offer a viable alternative for you!

Dental implants are a popular and successful option for replacing missing teeth. Made from titanium and other materials that are compatible with the body, these implant posts are surgically placed in the jaw to provide a strong foundation for replacement teeth. Designed to blend in with your natural smile, dental implants offer a durable and long-lasting solution.

In our Fort Worth dental clinic at BLVD Dentistry & Orthodontics, the process of getting a dental implant usually involves three phases.

Step One: Surgical Placement: Our Fort Worth dentist surgically implants the post(s) into the jawbone.

Step Two: Osseointegration: The process of osseointegration, which is vital for the fusion of the implant with the bone, takes place. This important stage provides the implant with exceptional strength. Patients typically have to wait for several months during this crucial period for the implant to fully integrate before moving on to the next phase.

Step Three: Placement of the Artificial Tooth/Teeth: After the implantation process, the artificial tooth or teeth are securely attached. If it is a single-tooth implant, a dental crown is connected, which is specifically designed to resemble your original tooth in terms of size, shape, color, and fit. This ensures a smooth and natural appearance. In situations where multiple teeth require replacement, personalized dentures or bridges are created to perfectly fit your mouth and seamlessly integrate with the implants.

Don’t let missing teeth hold you back from sharing your beautiful smile – dental implants can help!
