Dental Implants

At Dentistry at Happy Canyon, we understand the importance of a complete, healthy smile. Missing teeth can impact not only your appearance but also your confidence and overall oral health. That is why we offer dental implants to help restore your smile and improve your quality of life. Dental implants provide a long-lasting solution that looks, feels and functions like natural teeth.

The Dental Implant Process

When you choose dental implants, you are opting for a treatment that offers stability and durability. Dr. Travis Haws begins the process with a comprehensive consultation to ensure you are a good candidate for the procedure. The initial step involves placing a titanium post into the jawbone, which acts as a sturdy foundation for the artificial tooth.

Over time, the post integrates with the bone, creating a secure anchor. Once healed, a custom-made crown is attached to the post, completing your restoration. The result is a natural-looking tooth that blends seamlessly with your existing teeth.

Why Choose Dental Implants?

Dental implants offer numerous advantages over traditional tooth replacement options. They help preserve jawbone density, prevent the shifting of adjacent teeth and maintain facial structure.

FAQ

What are dental implants made of?

Dental implants are typically made of titanium, a biocompatible material that integrates well with bone tissue. The crowns are often made of porcelain or ceramic for a natural appearance.

How long does the dental implant process take?

Usually several months. This includes the initial consultation, implant placement, healing time and the attachment of the final crown. Healing time is essential for ensuring the implant integrates properly with the jawbone.

Are dental implants painful?

Most patients report minimal discomfort during the dental implant procedure. Local anesthesia is used to numb the area, and any post-operative pain can usually be managed with over-the-counter pain medications.

How do I care for my dental implants?

Regular brushing, flossing and routine dental check-ups are essential to maintain the health and longevity of your implants.
