Dental Implants in Stockton, CA

Are you looking for dental implants in Stockton, CA? At Smiles Depot Dental Group, we have extensive experience in dental implants. These are a great way to replace missing teeth, and they also provide a fixed solution to having removable partial or complete dentures. Implants offer excellent support and stability for these dental appliances.

Dental implants are artificial roots and teeth (usually titanium) that are surgically placed into the upper or lower jaw bone by a dentist or Periodontist, which is a specialist of the gums and supporting bone. The teeth attached to implants are very natural looking, and they often enhance or restore a patient’s smile!

When you have dental implants in Stockton, CA, you can relax in the knowledge that your implants are extremely strong, stable, and durable, and that they will last many years. However, dental implants will occasionally have to be re-tightened or replaced due to normal wear.

Reasons for dental implants:

• Replace one or more missing teeth, without affecting adjacent teeth.

• Resolve joint pain or bite problems caused by teeth shifting into missing tooth space.

• Restore a patient’s confident smile.

• Restore chewing, speech, and digestion.

• Restore or enhance facial tissues.

• Support a bridge or denture, making them more secure and comfortable.

What does getting dental implants involve?

Placing your dental implants in Stockton, CA requires a number of visits, over several months.

X-rays and impressions (molds) are taken of the jaw and teeth to determine bone, gum tissue, and spacing available for an implant. While the area is numb, the implant will be surgically placed into the bone and allowed to heal and integrate itself onto the bone for up to six months. Depending on the type of implant, a second surgery may be required in order to place the “post” that will hold the artificial tooth in place. With other implants, the post and anchor are already attached and placed at the same time.

The next stage of your dental implants in Stockton, CA commences after several weeks of healing. This is when your artificial teeth are made and fitted to the post portion of the anchor. Because several fittings may be required, this step may take one to two months to complete. After a healing period, the artificial teeth are securely attached to the implant, providing excellent stability and comfort to the patient.

You will receive care instructions when your treatment is completed. Good oral hygiene, eating habits, and regular dental visits will aid in the life of your new implant.
