What Is The Concept Of Dental Implant Restoration?
Conventional oral prosthetics are replaced with dental implant restorations, which are more durable and long-lasting.
Dental implants are titanium posts that Dr. Russell inserts into the jaw during outpatient treatment. Your bone wraps around the implants after surgery, fusing them to your jaw.
Your remaining healthy teeth do not support dental implant restorations. Therefore, you do not have to think about them moving or slipping around since they are attached to your jaw.
What Kinds Of Dental Implant Restorations Are Available?
Dr. Russell will restore your dental implants in a variety of ways, including:
Dental crowns
Dental crowns are tooth-like caps that fit over the implants. They have the same light-reflecting characteristics and color as natural tooth enamel, so your smile can appear natural and healthy.
Dr. Russell uses the CEREC® milling machine to make the crown on-site if you only have one tooth missing. If you are missing several teeth, Dr. Russell will give your measurements to a dental laboratory, which will create an entire collection of crowns for you.
Fixed Bridges
A fixed bridge is an implant restoration that replaces two adjacent missing teeth. When a bridge is attached to a dental implant, your smile, as well as your biting and chewing capabilities, are restored.
If Dr. Russell decides that you are a perfect candidate for a bridge, he will use an intraoral scanner to take digital impressions. Your impressions are then sent to a dental laboratory, which fabricates your fixed implant-supported bridge.
Implant-Supported Dentures
Take implant-supported dentures into account if you are missing a complete arch of teeth. Dentures are a form of implant restoration that you can utilize to replace one or more teeth. Besides, Dr. Russell can also retrofit your dentures to bind to implants if you already have them.
Dentures that are implant-supported fit seamlessly and stay in place. They allow you to smile confidently, consume the foods you enjoy, and speak clearly.
What Kind Of Dental Implant Reconstruction Is The Right Fit For You?
Dr. Russell asks about your treatment objectives, completes an oral evaluation, and checks your dental health history to assess the type of dental implant reconstruction that suits you the best. After collecting the required details, he creates a personalized care plan tailored to your specific needs.
