Dental Implants
Dental implants represent the forefront of tooth replacement technology, offering a durable and lifelike alternative to traditional dentures and bridges. At Moon Valley Dental, we specialize in dental implants, providing a permanent solution replicating natural teeth look, feel, and function.
Longevity and Benefits of Dental Implants
Dental implants consist of titanium posts surgically inserted into the jawbone, where they fuse with the bone to act as artificial tooth roots. This fusion provides a stable foundation for attaching custom-made crowns or bridges. Unlike other tooth replacement options, dental implants offer unparalleled stability and longevity, often lasting a lifetime with proper care. They not only restore the aesthetics of your smile but also preserve the integrity of your jawbone and prevent the shifting of adjacent teeth.

The Dental Implant Procedure
Getting dental implants typically spans 6 to 12 months and involves multiple steps. It begins with the surgical placement of the titanium implant into the jawbone. After the surgery, a healing period is required for the implant to integrate with the bone, known as osseointegration. This integration ensures the implant is securely anchored. Once healed, a custom crown is attached to the implant, resembling your natural teeth in color and shape.
Post-Treatment Care and Recovery
Following the implant surgery, patients may experience some soreness and swelling, which can be managed with pain medication. We recommend a soft diet for a short period to aid in the healing process. Our team will provide detailed post-operative care instructions and schedule follow-up appointments to monitor your recovery and implant integration.
