What are Dental Implants?
Basically, a dental implant is a prosthetic tooth root that is surgically placed into the jawbone. It’s made of a strong and durable material like titanium or ceramic, and it will naturally bond with the surrounding bone. This makes it exceptionally sturdy, making it the perfect foundation for a new crown, bridge, or denture.
The 4-Step Dental Implant Process
- Consultation: You’ll sit down with Dr. Jetton, discuss your goals, and determine if dental implants are the right fit for you.
- Surgery: Dr. Jetton can take care of the surgical placement of your implants himself, letting you get everything you need in the same hometown office.
- Healing: While your mouth heals over the next three to six months, your implants will meld with your jawbone, making them incredibly stable and strong.
- Restoration: The big day has arrived! Dr. Jetton will attach your new teeth to your implants, make a few final checks, and that’s it!
Benefits of Dental Implants
- Durability: Traditional bridges and dentures last about 5-10 years on average, while dental implants have an impressive 25+ year lifespan.
- Bite Strength: With implants, patients recover much more of their original bite strength compared to regular bridges and dentures (Around 70% compared to 20%).
- Natural-Looking: Implants don’t have metal or acrylic attachments—they sit within your gums and jawbone just like real teeth.
- Bone Loss Protection: Because implants stimulate your jawbone with every bite, they actively stop the bone loss that often develops after tooth loss.
