At Mooring Dental, we understand the challenges that missing teeth can create for both your oral health and your confidence. Dental implants offer a permanent and highly effective solution to replace missing teeth, restoring the function and aesthetics of your smile. With the latest technology and a skilled team, Dr. Sean Mooring provides exceptional care to help you regain a healthy, complete smile.
Dental implants are small titanium posts that are surgically placed into your jawbone to serve as artificial tooth roots. These implants provide a stable foundation for replacement teeth, such as crowns, bridges, or dentures. Implants closely mimic the look and function of natural teeth, offering a long-lasting and natural-looking solution for patients with missing teeth.
Dental implants are considered the gold standard for tooth replacement due to their many benefits:
Unlike removable dentures or bridges, dental implants are a permanent option that provides stability and durability for years to come.
Dental implants stimulate the jawbone, preventing bone loss and helping to maintain your facial structure.
Implants are designed to look, feel, and function like natural teeth, allowing you to eat, speak, and smile with confidence.
Unlike dental bridges, implants do not require the alteration of adjacent teeth, preserving the health and integrity of your surrounding teeth.
The process of getting dental implants at Mooring Dental is a straightforward and carefully planned experience. Here’s what you can expect:
Dr. Mooring will begin with a consultation to assess your oral health and discuss your tooth replacement options. Together, you’ll decide if dental implants are the right solution for you.
Using advanced 3D imaging technology, Dr. Mooring will evaluate your bone structure and develop a personalized treatment plan tailored to your needs.
During a minor surgical procedure, the dental implant is placed into the jawbone. Temporary restorations may be provided while the implant integrates with the bone.
Over the next few months, the implant will fuse with the surrounding bone in a process called osseointegration, creating a stable foundation for the final restoration.
Once the implant has fully integrated, a custom-made crown, bridge, or denture will be attached to the implant, completing your smile.
At Mooring Dental, we utilize state-of-the-art 3D imaging technology to ensure the precise placement of dental implants. This advanced technology allows Dr. Mooring to assess bone density, plan the ideal position for your implants, and enhance the accuracy and success of the procedure. By using 3D imaging, we ensure that your treatment is safe, comfortable, and tailored to achieve the best possible results.
Dental implants are a transformative solution for patients with missing teeth, offering a long-lasting, natural-looking restoration. At Mooring Dental, we are committed to providing personalized care and high-quality dental implant services to meet your unique needs.
