If you have a tooth or multiple teeth that are missing, don’t suffer with embarrassment any longer.
Dental implants may be the right choice to replace your beautiful smile!
Dental implants are the modern solution for tooth replacement. They are the preferred option for most patients because they feel like natural teeth. Some other advantages of implants include:
A dental implant is a small titanium post that is surgically inserted into the jawbone where teeth are missing. This post replaces the missing root. Another small post is attached to the top of the implant, which protrudes through the gum and provides a stable anchor for a crown.
For most patients, the placement of implants involves two surgical procedures. Traditionally, the entire process takes about six months.
During the first procedure, the titanium post that replaces your missing root is placed into your jawbone. For the first three to six months following surgery, the implants are beneath the surface of the gums, gradually bonding with the jawbone.
During the second procedure, the implant is partially exposed then a small support post is attached. This post acts as an anchor for the crown, which is placed by your regular dentist.
Dr. Green also offers full arch dental implant solutions for a complete mouth restoration. This procedure offers patients who need a full arch replacement a faster process for a fraction of the cost of other replacement options.
During the procedure, four specialized implants are placed into the upper and lower jaw. An entire arch of teeth can then be snapped onto the implants.
Full arch dental implants are an excellent choice for patients seeking a cost-effective, long-lasting solution to restore their smile. Unlike traditional methods that require placing multiple individual implants or grinding down healthy teeth for a bridge, full arch implants support a full set of teeth with as few as four strategically placed implants. This approach not only preserves your natural teeth but also results in a shorter healing time and significantly less post-surgical discomfort. Because fewer implants are needed, full arch treatments are more affordable than replacing each tooth individually—making it a smart, efficient way to reclaim your confidence and oral function.
The decreased healing and integration time allows the new replacement teeth to be attached to the implant base more quickly and avoid the delay that accompanies many other surgical procedures used to replace teeth. This allows patients to start enjoying the benefits of their new arch of teeth as soon as possible.
The full arch dental implant treatment concept anchors implants at an angle. This provides the highest ratio of implant-to-bone contact, ensuring that the replacement teeth are secure.
Unlike other procedures, the the full arch dental implant treatment concept does not involve the grinding down of healthy teeth to cement a bridge or rely on the strength of any existing teeth to carry the burden of a bridge. Instead, this procedure utilizes minimally invasive techniques for implant placement, ensuring a rapid and less painful recovery. These implants will fully support the weight and function of the replacement set of teeth.
Many patients who are unable to receive traditional replacement options, such as a fixed bridge, are still able to receive this unique treatment. If you are on the verge of losing an entire upper or lower arch of teeth, have already lost these teeth, or wear a prosthesis such as dentures, we encourage you to discuss the full arch dental implant treatment concept with us.
