PERMANENT DENTAL IMPLANTS FOR FRONT TEETH

FRONT TOOTH REPLACEMENT SHREWSBURY, PA

A higher level of care and a permanent solution for tooth loss in Shrewsbury, PA

Placement of front implants is considerably more difficult and can also be more expensive than posterior implants. The bone is often thinner and less dense than in other areas of the mouth. If a tooth has been missing for a long period of time or if a tooth never developed in a spot, orthodontics and grafting will be considered for your individualized treatment plan every time. Smaller implants, customized ceramic abutment posts, and computer-guided implant surgery will virtually always be used for your treatment. The upper front jaw bone (maxilla) is susceptible to rapid deterioration should a tooth be removed incorrectly, should a tooth socket fail to be preserved with grafting, or should a poor implant placement result in loss and bone resulting in the need for more surgery and a different implant.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Get your questions answered about front tooth implant treatment in Shrewsbury, PA
Absolutely. Front tooth dental implants are a great option for replacing a missing front tooth and are suitable for most patients.
Your dentist will surgically place the implant (titanium post) in your jaw bone, taking an hour or two to complete for each implant being placed. After this step is complete, Dr. Haywood might wait about three months before the final restoration of the tooth replacement.
In most cases, it takes anywhere from two to eight months for a dental implant to heal enough for you to resume your daily routine without assistance. However, every patient is different, and it can take longer, especially if bone grafting is involved.
You can expect not to feel any pain during your dental implant procedure, as Dr. Haywood will have numbed your nerves. You will, however, feel a little pressure at times, but it should not cause you discomfort. Oral sedation is available for patients who have dental anxiety.
Absolutely! Although there are replacement options such as a dental bridge or removable denture, dental implants are the ideal option currently available for replacing a missing front tooth.
The implant screw in the jaw bone can last a lifetime with regular brushing and flossing and professional dental check-ups every three months. There is a possibility that the crown may need to be replaced every ten to fifteen years due to wear and tear.
