Are Dental Implants Right For You?

Your smile is your most valuable asset, and at Fairview Dental, we understand how damaged or missing teeth can affect your confidence and quality of life. If you’re tired of dealing with uncomfortable, ill-fitting dentures, dental implants could be the ideal solution for you.

Our innovative All-on-4 or Teeth-in-a-Day procedures allow you to say goodbye to dentures and hello to a permanent, beautiful smile. This comprehensive approach includes everything from the dental implant procedure to the placement of crowns, bridges, or dentures, ensuring a seamless transition to your new smile.

Understanding Dental Implants

Dental implants are a revolutionary solution for replacing missing teeth. Unlike traditional dentures, dental implant surgery involves surgically placing implants into your jawbone, providing a stable foundation for artificial teeth that look, feel, and function just like your natural ones. The crowns, bridges, or dentures are securely attached to the implant, ensuring optimal dental care and comfort throughout your daily life.

Debunking Common Misconceptions

Let’s address some common concerns about dental implants:

  • Pain: The procedure is virtually pain-free, with discomfort comparable to getting a filling.
  • Complexity: While the process involves advanced technology, it’s straightforward for patients.
  • Recovery: Most patients experience minimal downtime and can return to normal activities quickly.
  • Cost: Implants are a long-term investment in your oral health and overall health.

The implant abutment securely connects the artificial teeth to the implant, ensuring stability and function. If bone density is an issue, a bone substitute may be used to enhance the jaw structure, providing a solid foundation for the implants.

Key Benefits of Dental Implants

Long-lasting solution

Dental implants can last 25 years or longer with proper care.

Comfort and Stability

They feel and function like natural teeth, eliminating the discomfort often associated with removable dentures.

Oral Health

Preservation of oral health: Implants don't require altering adjacent teeth and help maintain bone structure.

Natural Appearance

Custom-made to match your existing teeth, implants provide a seamless, natural-looking smile.

Improved quality of life

Enjoy eating, speaking, and smiling with confidence.

Cost-effective

While the initial investment may be higher, the longevity of implants often makes them more economical in the long run.

Additionally, the surgical procedure involves placing the implant directly into the jawbone, acting as a tooth root. If necessary, a bone graft can be performed to enhance the jaw’s structure, ensuring a solid foundation for the implant.

The All-on-4 and Teeth-in-a-Day Procedures?

For those needing full arch replacement, our All-on-4 and Teeth-in-a-Day procedures offer remarkable solutions. These innovative techniques allow us to place a full set of permanent teeth using just four strategically positioned implants, often in a single day.
