What Are Dental Implants?
Dental implants are a unique total tooth replacement option ideal for patients from all walks of life. It's comprised of three parts: an implant post, an abutment, and an implant-supported restoration. By replacing your missing tooth from root to crown, you get much of the same benefits as natural teeth. If you're unsure whether you'd like to move forward with implants, our team is here to answer your questions and help you make informed decisions.
Some of the reasons you should consider our San Jose dental implants include:
- Improving Functionality: We rely on our teeth to help us eat the foods we love and speak to those around us. By permanently replacing your missing teeth, you help extensively restore your bite's overall functionality in more ways than one.
- Restoring Confidence: When you have missing teeth, it can make you hesitant to flash your smile. We use natural-looking materials for all our implant-supported restorations, and your dental implants will blend in seamlessly with your remaining teeth for a dazzling look.
- Preventing Bone Loss: One of the worst effects of missing teeth is that your jawbone can begin to deteriorate. By replacing your teeth with our dental implants, they directly stimulate your bone and help prevent bone loss.
Meeting Your Placement Needs
One of the ways that we've improved our overall San Jose dental implant offerings is by offering placement. Dr. Croy will start the process by conducting an extensive oral exam. We'll work to determine if you're an ideal candidate for implants and, if so, move forward with placement.
Our reception staff will help you schedule your placement appointments, and our team will provide you with detailed post-surgery instructions. Once your smile has properly healed, our staff can move forward with the next stage in the process: placing your implant-supported restoration.
Crafting High-Quality Restorations
During your initial exam, our team will take detailed images of your teeth using our CBCT scanner, which allows us to craft natural-looking and natural-feeling restorations. Unlike traditional restorations, implant-supported restorations are held in place by an implant post and can last indefinitely. However, like traditional restorations, we use the same materials that make for a durable and gorgeous restoration. Our office has extensive experience providing crowns, bridges, and dentures for adults and seniors alike.
Providing Skilled Pretreatment Procedures
It's crucial that your smile is healthy for the successful placement of our San Jose teeth implants. That's why our dental practice is proud to offer comprehensive pretreatment procedures. You can rest assured that we have the surgical experience and knowledge to facilitate safe and effective surgeries. Our dentist will sit down with you to determine if pretreatment is necessary and, if so, which of our procedures is right for you.
Some of the pretreatment offerings we provide our patients include:
- Bone Grafts: A major obstacle to successful dental implant placement is when you don't have a healthy and strong jawbone. When bone isn't dense enough, your dental implant can't effectively fuse to your jaw. A bone graft is a surgical procedure that takes healthy bone and reinforces an otherwise weak or brittle area.
- Sinus Lifts: A sinus lift reinforces your upper jawbone when it isn't strong enough or shaped correctly for dental implants. While similar in concept to a bone graft, the difference lies in the part of your jawbone we're working on, as sinus lifts are reserved for the upper portion of your smile and raise your sinus floor.
- Tooth Extractions: Although one of our primary goals as a dental office is to save your natural teeth whenever possible. However, extracting a severely decayed or damaged tooth to make way for your implant may be the right option for you. Our team is here to make every step of your extraction journey as comfortable as possible.
