A dental implant helps to create a natural smile with a permanent tooth replacement. The implant integrates with your bone, to create a strong, long-lasting tooth. The process is pain-free.
West One Family Dental maintains Nobel Biocare Dental Implant Certification. For this certification, our office fulfills 20 hours a year of implant continuing education to stay on the cutting edge of the technology. Our office is equipped with the latest in 3D CT scan technology which is quickly becoming the standard for care in dental implantology. We restore your smile and your comfort.
Typical implant treatment plans involve three visits: placement, impressions, and delivery. During your first appointment we will take a scan and place the implant in your jaw. For a few months we allow your jaw and the implant to fully heal and fuse.
At your next appointment we will take impressions to get the most accurate representation of the implant and area as possible. From these impressions we will create the crown that will complete your smile.
The third and final appointment is to deliver the crown. The crown provides a natural appearance and strong chewing surface. This entire process typically takes about 4-6 months.
Every patient’s health history and specific mouth is evaluated to determine the best course of action. Typically, implants are an excellent and lasting choice for patients who want stability and natural appearance. However, implant placement can be limited by the space in your mouth and may not be the right choice for you.
No! Just like with most dental procedures we will use either local anesthesia or moderate sedation to make you comfortable during your visit. Also, most patients find that over-the-counter painkillers are sufficient during the healing process.
In our office the success rate for implants is 98%!
