Why Choose Dental Specialists of Southern Colorado for Your Implants

Why Choose Dental Implants?

There are several reasons to consider dental implants when exploring tooth replacement options:

1. Appearance: Dental implants are designed to blend seamlessly with your surrounding teeth, providing a natural-looking and aesthetically pleasing result.
2. Functionality: Because implants are fixed into your jawbone, they provide strong support for artificial teeth. This enables you to eat and speak confidently without worrying about your replacement teeth slipping or shifting in your mouth.
3. Bone Health: Dental implants help prevent jawbone deterioration, which occurs when teeth are lost. By replacing the tooth root, dental implants stimulate bone growth and preserve the integrity of your jawbone.
4. Longevity: With proper care, dental implants can last a lifetime, making them a cost-effective solution compared to other tooth replacement options that need replacement every few years.

The Dental Implant Process at Dental Specialists of Southern Colorado

Our highly skilled team at Dental Specialists of Southern Colorado ensures you receive the best care throughout your dental implant journey. Here’s an overview of the process:

1. Consultation: To determine if you’re a candidate for dental implants, one of our dental specialists will carefully examine your teeth, gums, and jawbone. They will also evaluate your medical history and discuss your treatment goals.
2. Treatment Plan: If you qualify for dental implants, our team will develop a customized treatment plan tailored to your needs. This includes determining the ideal placement for your implants and deciding on a timeline for the surgery and restorative procedures.
3.  Implant Surgery: During the procedure, our dental surgeon will expertly place the implant post into your jawbone. This process may take a few months to heal, allowing the implant to fuse securely with the bone.
4. Abutment and Restoration: Once the implant is fully integrated, an abutment (connector) is attached to the post. Next, your dental specialist will attach your custom-made artificial tooth to the abutment.
5.  Follow-up Care: Our team will provide you with instructions on how to care for your new dental implants to ensure they last for many years to come. Regular dental checkups will also help monitor your implants and maintain your overall oral health.
