Regular dental check-ups are essential for preserving the health of your implant teeth. Together with our dental team, we will help determine the optimal frequency of these visits but typically they will be between 3 to 6 months. During these check-ups our expert dental team will thoroughly assess and clean your implants, teeth, and gums, ensuring no area goes overlooked, including those hard to reach areas. Professional cleaning of tooth implants requires more intricate techniques and may involve specialised instruments, making the process slightly longer but it is crucial for ensuring the longevity of your dental implants. At main street dental we are dedicated to providing ongoing care to safeguard your radiant smile. Regular check-ups and professional cleaning is key to maintaining the health and beauty of your implant teeth.
Embarking on the dental implant process is an exciting step towards restoring your smile. This transformative journey typically takes 3-6 months, starting with the removal of the affected tooth, followed by the precise placement of the dental implant, and culminating in the delivery of your perfect replacement tooth. If the missing tooth is in a visible area we can provide a temporary tooth for aesthetic concerns during this period. For those with good bone quality or considering All on 4 Plus implant treatment, the path to a complete smile can be surprisingly quick. In some cases, you may receive your new teeth within a few days or even on the same day as the procedure.However, if the tooth being replaced has an infection, or the underlying bone quality and quantity require improvement the treatment duration may take longer. Bone grafting or soft tissue grafting may be necessary which will extend the treatment time to ensure a suitable foundation for your permanent replacement. Itās important to be aware that certain medical conditions, like cancer, blood disorders, nerve problems, or uncontrolled diabetes, may warrant further assessment before dental implant placement. Individuals under 18 years old may need to wait until their bones have fully developed before considering dental implants. Explore the possibilities of dental implants at Lifestyle Smiles.
