I am having extensive dental work done over a period of time working with Dr Gatti and Dr Govostes. and Marianne.They have taken the time every step of the way to make sure I'm comfortable and have full understanding of the process and what to expect. Everyone in the office treats me with respect and compassion.. understanding I'm apprehensive. From my very first visit I felt this was the right place to choose for my treatment. I considered researching other practices since it was such extensive treatment plan but kept coming back to the fact that everyone there made me feel very confident and comfortable in my choice. I highly recommend this practice.

Dental Implants

You’ve lost a tooth, or perhaps several. Chewing is difficult and smiling, well it’s too embarrassing. There is no question that the quality of your life has changed.
Dental implants are the solution to renewing your smile, your chewing ability and quite frankly your quality of life.

WHAT IS A

Dental Implant?

A dental implant is a small titanium screw that serves as the replacement for the root portion of a missing natural tooth. Dental implants can be placed in either the upper or lower jaws.

Due to the biocompatible properties of titanium, a dental implant fuses with the bone and becomes a good anchor for the replacement tooth. Dental implants can be used in solutions for replacing single or multiple missing teeth.

Many people who consider implants have removable, conventional dentures for lower and upper jaws, or have removable bridges. These people experience a significant improvement in their ability to chew food comfortably after their dental implant treatment.

REASONS TO CONSIDER

Dental Implant

When both the tooth and root are damaged, the best permanent replacement is a dental implant in conjunction with a ceramic crown. This solution both looks and functions just like a natural tooth.

THE DENTAL IMPLANT

Procedure

The dentist places the implants into the patient’s mouth where teeth are missing. After the implant is placed, a permanent crown is custom fitted to replace the missing tooth. The dentists at Lexington Smile Studio will implant, design and fit the replacement teeth or do restorative work on faulty crowns all in one office.

At the first appointment, we use an X-ray to determine if the jaw bone is adequate to hold the titanium posts.
Models of the mouth are then made using a soft, pliable plastic compound. These models show where the gaps are located and provide measurements for a replacement tooth or a bridge.
Treatment with dental implants requires meticulous planning for best results.
A surgical procedure is required (using local anesthetic and sedative) in which precision channels are created in the jawbone, often using a surgical guide. The implants are then fitted into the sites so that they are in contact with the bone. They generally require two to six months to fuse to the bone before they can have tooth restorations attached to them to complete the process.
Immediately – at the same time an implant is placed (or after a period of healing), an abutment is attached to the implant. This is a device that “abuts” or joins the implant to a tooth form called a crown, which replaces the tooth part you see in the mouth.
The custom crown is cemented or screwed onto the abutment to permanently keep it in place and should be indistinguishable from your natural teeth.

IS OLD AGE

A Problem ?

Occasionally, older patients express concern that their age may prevent them from enjoying the benefits of dental implants. However, health is more of a determining factor than age. If you’re healthy enough to have a tooth extracted, you’re probably healthy enough to receive dental implants. Certain chronic diseases may contraindicate dental implant treatment. The dentist will determine if you are a candidate for dental implants after a careful evaluation of your dental and health history.

HOW WILL DENTAL IMPLANTS

Affect My Life ?

Dental implant-supported replacement teeth look, feel and function like natural teeth. This means that you can eat and drink whatever you choose. But most importantly, dental implants improve quality of life in a very concrete way. People who have felt embarrassed and worried because of their tooth problems are often overwhelmed by what new permanent teeth can do for their self-esteem.
