Dental Implants Overview
Dental implants in Burbank are strong and healthy solutions for replacement of missing teeth
A dental implant is a small titanium screw that serves as a tooth replacement for the root portion of a missing natural tooth. It is secured to the jaw by means of a surgical procedure. These tooth implants can be placed in the upper or lower jaw. Due to osseointegration and the biocompatible properties of titanium, a dental implant fuses with your bone andbecomes a good anchor for a replacement tooth. Dental implants can be a solution for single or multiple missing teeth. Implants are a long lasting quality solution looking just like a normal tooth. Our dental implant brand of choice is Nobel Biocare for their excellent quality and proven track record.
What To Expect With Your Dental Implants...
Typically dental implants take several visits to complete and require some healing time as well. The steps involved are:
- First Visit: Expect an exam and consultation to determine if you are a candidate for porcelain veneers
- Second Visit: Your enamel is trimmed approximately half a millimetre and impressions of your teeth are made
- Third Visit: The veneers are cemented in place using ultraviolet light to harden them quickly
