Dental Implants: Same-Day Procedure to Replace Missing Teeth
Dental implants are replacement tooth roots that provide a permanent base for fixed or removable artificial teeth. They help to stimulate and preserve bone, enhance oral health and improve confidence levels.
Our restorative dentist who loves helping patients feel comfortable and safe with their procedures. He has experience restoring full mouth dental implants for both adults and children.
All-on-Four
A full arch of artificial teeth can be anchored to four implants surgically placed in the jawbone. This solution is more comfortable, stable, and natural-looking than traditional dentures. It can also prevent the bone deterioration that usually results in traditional dentures.
The All-on-4 procedure is a long-term solution for those who are missing all or most of the teeth in a dental arch. It involves placing two implants Detroit MI in the front of your mouth and two longer implant posts at a precise 45-degree angle in the back of the jaw, which eliminates the need for a bone graft.
This treatment is more cost-effective than a full mouth reconstruction with individual teeth. Our team will work with your insurance to make sure that as much of the procedure as possible is covered. Our office also offers a number of payment plans to accommodate patients with different budgets. Like your natural teeth, your All-on-4 dental implants will require routine care and maintenance to preserve their integrity.
Teeth-in-a-Day
The goal of this same-day procedure is to replace damaged teeth with a full arch of permanent replacement teeth. During the initial visit, we will perform an evaluation to determine the best type of dental implant and restorations. We will also take X-rays, impressions, and 3D scans to ensure that your mouth is ready for surgery.
During the Teeth-in-a-Day procedure, titanium implants are surgically placed into your jawbone, and a denture is immediately attached. These implants will eventually become anchored into the bone, allowing you to enjoy full functionality.
This innovative full mouth reconstruction uses just four dental implants to support a complete denture. The All-on-Four treatment concept utilizes angled implants to maximize the available bone, eliminating the need for grafting in many cases. The result is a permanent denture that will look, feel, and function like your natural teeth. We will also provide a temporary set of overdentures to allow you to eat a more varied diet and speak confidently while your implants Detroit MI heal.
Teeth-in-a-Hour
Traditional tooth replacement treatments such as dentures are often time-consuming, invasive, and uncomfortable. Fortunately, there is an alternative that provides patients with long-lasting and natural-looking new teeth: Teeth-in-a-Hour dental implants.
Using a combination of advanced technology and meticulous diagnosis, the TEETH-IN-AN-HOUR(tm) process delivers fully functional, permanent teeth mounted on implant supported crowns or bridges in a single procedure. The patented technique combines the expertise of the restorative doctor and the surgeon to deliver not only quicker treatment, but also safer implant placement.
In this minimally invasive procedure, a CAT scan is taken of the patient’s jaw bone to create a virtual three-dimensional model of the tooth structure and an implant placement plan. The implant abutment and non-removable prosthesis are then fabricated before the short incision-free surgery is performed. The CAD/CAM based system allows for more precise positioning of the implant, as well as reduced surgical time, and an improved treatment outcome. It also eliminates the need for bone grafting, which is often required with conventional dental implant treatments.
Teeth-in-One-Day
If you are missing many or all of your natural teeth and want a fast and easy solution to restore your smile, this same-day dental implant treatment may be right for you. During a free consultation, your periodontist will conduct an evaluation of your dentition using X-rays, molds, and digital scans. This allows him to create a customized treatment plan that is unique to your specific needs and anatomy.
Patients considering same-day implants must be committed to maintaining a soft diet and oral hygiene routine during the healing process. Failure to do so could cause the implants to move, which can negatively impact integration and long-term success.
Patients must also have enough jawbone mass to support the implants, or a bone graft will need to be performed. Additionally, bruxism should be treated before surgery since it can interfere with the bone healing process. If you don’t meet these criteria, traditional dental implants may be a better option for you.
