Dental Implants Restorations

A dental implant is a permanent solution for replacing one or more missing teeth, offering stability and strength. Typically made from titanium, the implant is surgically placed into the jawbone, where it gradually fuses with the bone over a few months, creating a solid foundation for a restoration. Once fully integrated, the implant can support prosthetic teeth, such as a single crown, bridge, or full dentures, restoring both the function and appearance of your smile.

For a missing tooth, a small titanium screw is placed into your jawbone by your oral surgeon. As the implant fuses with the bone, it acts as an artificial root, providing a sturdy base for a restoration. Whether it's a crown, bridge, or dentures, the restoration enhances both your oral function and the overall look of your smile.

Once fully healed, Dr. Trogan will take images or impressions of your mouth and send them to a dental lab to create your custom tooth replacement.

Once your prosthetic is ready, Dr. Trogan will place it over the abutment, ensuring a comfortable fit, and secure it with permanent dental adhesive. The result is a healthy, beautiful smile that can last for many years.
