Dental Implants

Welcome to Coeur d'Alene Dental Center, the leading dental practice in Coeur d'Alene, ID. Our team of expert dentists is dedicated to providing high-quality, personalized dental care to our patients. One of the services we specialize in is dental implants. In this blog post, we will discuss what dental implants are, why they are a great option for missing teeth, and how our team at CDA Dental Center can help you restore your smile and oral health.

What are Dental Implants?

Dental implants are a revolutionary solution for replacing missing teeth. They are metal posts made of titanium that are surgically placed into the jawbone to serve as artificial tooth roots. These implants provide a stable foundation for replacement teeth, such as crowns or bridges, that look, feel, and function just like natural teeth.

Why Choose Dental Implants?

1. A Permanent Solution: Dental implants offer a long-term and potentially permanent solution for missing teeth. With proper care, they can last a lifetime, unlike other tooth replacement options that may need to be replaced every few years.

2. Improved Functionality: Dental implants restore your ability to bite, chew, and speak properly. Unlike removable dentures, implants are securely anchored into the jawbone, allowing for improved stability and strength.

3. Preserves Jawbone Health: When a tooth is lost, the jawbone in that area can deteriorate over time. Dental implants stimulate the jawbone, preventing bone loss and maintaining its structure. This not only improves oral health but also helps maintain a more youthful facial appearance.

4. Enhanced Aesthetics: Dental implants blend seamlessly with your natural teeth, providing a natural and attractive look. They are customized to match the color, shape, and size of your existing teeth, ensuring a seamless smile.

5. Increased Confidence: Dental implants provide a sense of security and confidence that may be lacking with other tooth replacement options. You can enjoy your favorite foods, speak without hesitation, and smile freely, knowing that your dental implants are secure and stable.

The Dental Implant Procedure

At CDA Dental Center, our experienced dentists specialize in implant dentistry and will guide you through the entire procedure. The process typically involves several stages:

1. Initial Consultation: During this phase, our dentist will evaluate your oral health, discuss your goals, and determine if you are a suitable candidate for dental implants. We may take X-rays and impressions of your teeth to create a personalized treatment plan.

2. Implant Placement: The next step involves the surgical placement of the dental implant into the jawbone. This procedure is performed under local anesthesia to ensure your comfort. Over time, the implant fuses with the surrounding bone through a process called osseointegration, creating a strong and stable foundation.

3. Healing and Osseointegration: It typically takes a few months for the implant to fully integrate with the jawbone. During this healing period, a temporary crown or bridge may be placed so that you do not have a gap in your smile.

4. Placement of the Final Restoration: Once the implant has fully healed, our dentist will attach a custom-made crown, bridge, or denture to the implant, completing your smile transformation. The final restoration will be meticulously crafted to blend seamlessly with your natural teeth, resulting in a beautiful and functional smile.
