Teeth Implants Can Change Your Life for the Better

Implants can alter your entire outlook on your life. Instead of hiding your smile behind your hand, you can feel proud to show off your smile. There’s no need to pass over new dishes you might like to try. Implants enable you to enjoy any type of food you want.

Unlike some dental practices, we place implants on-site so you don’t have to go to a specialist for that part of your procedure. Your dentist will use a 3-D CBCT scanner to plan your treatment and a computer-guided placement procedure for the most precise results. Implants will fuse with your jawbone during a healing period. Then we’ll anchor your new teeth to the implants. Depending on your circumstances, below are some options that may be available to you:

  • Implant-Crown Combination – This is a popular treatment for patients who have a single tooth missing, or perhaps two teeth in different areas of their mouth. We’ll place an implant where your tooth was, then cap it with a custom-fitted crown to restore your tooth.
  • Implant-Supported Bridge – This type of bridge will fill in your smile gap without the need to modify your other teeth. We’ll instead use dental implants as an anchor with artificial teeth in the middle (known as pontics).
  • Implant-Retained Dentures – You’ve never had conventional dentures that felt as comfortable and stable as these dentures will. Implants will have a snap-and-ball system attached to them so that your dentures stay secure until you’re ready to pop them out for cleaning.
  • Implant-Supported Dentures – You’ll love our most comfortable type of dentures. These teeth will be screwed into a metal bar that is attached to dental implants. This setup transfers the forces of biting and chewing directly to your jawbone instead of your gums.

You deserve to have a full mouth of beautiful teeth! Call Greenville Family Dentistry today at 618-668-2655 to find out more about dental implants in Greenville. You can also request an appointment online.

Common Questions About Dental Implants

What are dental implants?

Dental implants are small titanium posts that we place in your jaw to act as artificial teeth roots. They are an ideal way to replace missing teeth because the implant fuses with your jawbone to form a base for new teeth. Implants also help keep your jawbone healthy by stimulating the growth of new bone.

Do dental implants hurt?

Most of our dental implant patients report little discomfort when they receive their dental implants. We’ll make sure your mouth is completely numb in the area where we’re working, and afterward, most discomfort can be eliminated with over-the-counter pain relievers. All in all, you should have a relatively pain-free dental implant experience.

How much do dental implants cost?

The cost of dental implants varies, depending mainly on how many implants you receive. In some cases, you may also need another procedure, like a tooth extraction or bone grafts, to prepare for implants. We’ll discuss cost with you during the planning stage of your implants procedure so you know exactly what to expect. Financing options can make your care manageable.

Can dental implants be removed?

Technically, dental implants can be removed, although it is unlikely you would ever need to have that done. Once your implants have been placed in your jawbone, they completely bond with it and can last for decades, if not the rest of your life. Your replacement teeth that are anchored to your implants have an average life span of five to 10 years.
