24531 Trabuco Rd., Suite H, Lake Forest, CA 92630 Dental implants are a revolutionary solution for replacing missing teeth, offering a durable and natural-looking option to restore your smile and oral function. Whether you need to replace a single tooth, multiple teeth or an entire arch, dental implants can provide a stable and long-lasting result that feels and functions like your natural teeth.
A dental implant consists of two primary components: the implant post and the implant restoration. The implant post is a small screw made from titanium or another biocompatible material. This post is surgically placed into your jawbone, where it integrates with the bone tissue over time, forming a secure foundation for the replacement tooth. This process, known as osseointegration, ensures that the implant is stable and can support the pressures of daily activities such as chewing and speaking.
The implant restoration, which is the visible part of the implant, is custom-made to fit your mouth perfectly. Depending on your needs, the restoration could be a single crown, a bridge or a denture. Our skilled dentist will work closely with you to design a restoration that blends seamlessly with your natural teeth, ensuring a beautiful and functional result.
One of the key advantages of dental implants is their ability to prevent bone loss. When a tooth is lost, the underlying bone can deteriorate over time. Implants stimulate the jawbone, much like natural tooth roots, helping to maintain bone density and preserve the structure of your face. This prevents the sunken appearance that can occur with missing teeth and helps maintain a youthful appearance.
Replacing missing teeth is crucial not only for aesthetic reasons but also for your overall oral health. Gaps left by missing teeth can lead to shifting of the remaining teeth, bite problems and difficulties with eating and speaking. Dental implants provide a stable solution that can prevent these issues and restore full function to your mouth.
