What are Dental Implants?

Dental implants are artificial roots and teeth crafted from durable materials, most commonly titanium, and are surgically implanted into the upper or lower jawbone. These implants serve as a foundation for attaching lifelike artificial teeth, enhancing or restoring your smile seamlessly.

Who is a Candidate for Dental Implants?

A good candidate for dental implants in Baltimore typically meets the following criteria:

  • Healthy gums and adequate bone: You need enough bone to support the implant, though bone grafts can sometimes be used if there’s insufficient bone.
  • Good overall health: Chronic conditions like diabetes or heart disease should be well-managed. Smokers may face higher risks, but they are still potential candidates if willing to quit or reduce smoking.
  • Oral hygiene commitment: Dental implants require proper care, including brushing, flossing, and regular dental visits to maintain long-term success.
  • Missing teeth: Implants are ideal for those with one or more missing teeth who seek a permanent, durable solution rather than dentures or bridges.

A consultation with a dental professional will help determine if dental implants are the right option for you.

The Benefits of Dental Implants

Single Implants: Filling the Gap with Precision

  • Preserving Adjacent Teeth: Single implants are ideal for replacing a single missing tooth without affecting neighboring teeth. Unlike traditional bridges, single implants stand independently, preserving the natural structure of your smile.
  • Restoring Natural Good Looks: The artificial tooth attached to a single implant is custom-designed to match the color, shape, and size of your natural teeth, ensuring a seamless and aesthetically pleasing result.
  • Preventing Shifting: By filling the gap left by a missing tooth, a single implant prevents adjacent teeth from shifting, maintaining proper alignment and preventing bite issues.

Multiple Implants: Comprehensive Restoration

  • Replacing Several Teeth: Multiple implants are an effective solution for replacing several missing teeth, offering a comprehensive and permanent restoration.
  • Enhanced Stability: Implants provide stability and support for dental bridges or dentures, preventing the movement or slippage commonly associated with removable prosthetics.
  • Improved Chewing Function: Multiple implants restore the ability to chew and speak confidently, allowing you to enjoy a diverse and nutritious diet without worry or self-consciousness.

Learn More About the Dental Implant Procedure

Single Implant Procedures Usually Include:

  • Assessment: A comprehensive evaluation, including X-rays, 3D imaging, and impressions, helps determine the optimal placement for the single implant.
  • Surgical Placement: The implant is surgically placed into the jawbone with precision, providing a stable foundation for the artificial tooth.
  • Artificial Tooth Fitting: After a healing period, a custom-made artificial tooth is attached to the implant, restoring the appearance and function of the missing tooth.

Multiple Implant Procedures Usually Include:

  • Detailed Assessment: Thorough diagnostic procedures, including X-rays, 3D imaging, and impressions, guide the placement of multiple implants to ensure optimal functionality and aesthetics.
  • Surgical Placement: Implants are strategically placed into the jawbone to create a stable foundation for the restoration of multiple missing teeth.
  • Custom Restoration: Artificial teeth or prosthetics, such as bridges or dentures, are custom-designed and securely attached to the implants, providing a natural and functional replacement for multiple missing teeth.

Dental Implants FAQ

How long does the dental implant process take from start to finish?

Will I need a bone graft or sinus lift before getting implants?

What will my appointment feel like—do you use anesthesia?

How do I care for dental implants long-term?

How long does the dental implant process take from start to finish?

Timelines vary by case. After your consultation and imaging, placement may be followed by a healing phase before the final tooth (or teeth) is attached. Some patients qualify for a same-day temporary tooth, while others may need additional time if bone support must be improved first. We’ll outline your personalized sequence and expected milestones at your consultation.

Will I need a bone graft or sinus lift before getting implants?

Possibly—this depends on bone volume and quality in the planned implant sites. We use advanced imaging to evaluate your foundation. If bone is insufficient, grafting (or a sinus lift in the upper jaw) can create the stability implants require and may add healing time before final restoration. Your prosthodontist will review whether any site-development is recommended for long-term success.

What will my appointment feel like—do you use anesthesia?

Implants are typically placed comfortably using local anesthesia to numb the area. If you’re anxious, tell us—we’ll discuss additional comfort measures and plan your visit so you feel relaxed and well-informed every step of the way.

How do I care for dental implants long-term?

Treat them like natural teeth: brush twice daily, clean between teeth (floss, interdental brushes, or a water flosser), and keep your professional cleanings and checkups. If you clench or grind, a custom nightguard may be advised. Call us promptly if you notice tenderness, bleeding that persists, or any mobility around an implant.
