Restore Your Smile and Confidence

Losing a front tooth can be a distressing experience, affecting not only your smile but also your self-confidence. A front tooth implant is a highly effective solution to restore your smile and confidence.

What is a Front Tooth Implant?

A front tooth implant is a dental implant specifically designed to replace a missing front tooth. It consists of three main components:

  • Implant Post: A titanium post surgically inserted into the jawbone.
  • Abutment: A connector attached to the implant post.
  • Crown: A custom-made prosthetic tooth attached to the abutment.

Candidacy for Front Tooth Implants

If you have lost a front tooth due to injury, decay, or gum disease, you may be a candidate for a front tooth implant. However, certain factors, such as bone density and overall health, will be evaluated by our dentist to determine if a front tooth implant is right for you.

What is the procedure for a front tooth implant?

The procedure for a front tooth implant typically involves several stages, which may vary depending on your individual needs.

Consultation and Planning

  • Initial consultation with our dentist to discuss treatment options and create a personalized plan.
  • Review of medical and dental history.
  • Visual examination and impressions of the mouth.
  • Discussion of treatment timeline, costs, and expectations.

Diagnostic Imaging and Testing

  • Diagnostic imaging (e.g., X-rays, CT scans) to evaluate bone density and anatomy.
  • Testing for gum disease, tooth decay, and other oral health issues.

Tooth Extraction (If Necessary)

  • If the damaged tooth is still present, it may need to be extracted before implant placement.

Implant Placement

  • Administration of local anesthesia and/or sedation to ensure comfort during the procedure.
  • Surgical placement of the implant post into the jawbone.
  • The implant post is typically placed at an angle to maximize bone support.

Osseointegration

  • The implant post is left to heal and integrate with the surrounding bone (osseointegration).
  • This process typically takes 3-6 months.

Abutment Attachment

  • Attachment of the abutment to the implant post.
  • The abutment serves as a connector between the implant post and the prosthetic tooth.

Prosthetic Tooth Creation

  • Creation of a custom-designed prosthetic tooth that matches the natural tooth.
  • Try-in and adjustment of the prosthetic tooth to ensure proper fit and comfort.

Final Placement

  • Final placement of the prosthetic tooth onto the abutment.
  • Adjustment and fine-tuning of the bite and fit.

Follow-up and Maintenance

  • Follow-up appointments with our dentist to monitor the implant and prosthetic tooth.
  • Regular cleaning and maintenance to ensure the longevity of the implant and prosthetic tooth.

The entire procedure can take several months to complete, but the end result is a natural-looking and functional front tooth that can last for many years.
