Considering Dental Implants?

Dental implants can provide a long-term solution for replacing one or more missing teeth. At Dental Art Clinic in Mount Prospect, Dr. Joanna Tylman provides personalized dental implant treatment for patients from Mount Prospect, Arlington Heights, Wheeling, and surrounding communities. Dental implants are designed to restore chewing function, support oral health, and provide a natural-looking replacement for missing teeth.

Understanding Dental Implants

A dental implant restoration typically consists of three main components:

1. Dental Implant: A titanium post placed in the jawbone to replace the root of a missing tooth.
2. Abutment: A connector that attaches the implant to the replacement tooth.
3. Crown: A custom-made restoration designed to match the appearance and function of your natural teeth.

Longevity of Dental Implants

Dental implants are designed to be a durable, long-term tooth replacement option. How long an implant and its restoration last depends on factors such as oral hygiene, gum and bone health, bite forces, general health, and regular dental care. The implant itself and the crown may have different lifespans, and the restoration may eventually need repair or replacement.

Caring for Dental Implants

Here are some tips to ensure the longevity of your dental implants:
– Use a toothbrush twice a day for a minimum of two minutes at a time.
– Floss daily to avoid plaque and food particles between teeth and implants.
– Maintain regular dental cleanings and examinations based on the schedule recommended by your dentist.

– Avoid biting on hard objects to help prevent damage to your crown.
– Do not use your teeth to open packages or bottles.
– Consider using a custom mouth guard to protect your implants if you grind your teeth at night.

Crown Materials

The material of your crown plays a significant role in its durability. Crowns can be made from:
– Porcelain: Offers a natural look and is resistant to staining.
– Ceramic: Provides a strong and aesthetically pleasing option.
– Resin: A cost-effective choice that blends well with natural teeth.
– Metal: Highly durable and ideal for back teeth where the force of chewing is greater.

Are Dental Implants Right for You?

Dental implants may be an option for adults who have lost one or more teeth and have adequate oral and overall health for implant treatment. During your consultation at Dental Art Clinic, Dr. Joanna Tylman will evaluate your teeth, gums, bite, and jawbone and use appropriate dental imaging to determine whether implants are suitable for you. If additional treatment such as tooth extraction or bone grafting is needed, this can be incorporated into your personalized treatment plan.
