Sometimes, it\u2019s as simple as getting dental implants in Oakton! If you want to learn about how to replace a missing tooth with dental implants, you\u2019re in for a treat with this week\u2019s blog post!\r\n\r\n\r\n

A Single Implant Can Change Your Smile for the Better!<\/h2>\r\nThe\u00a0procedure to place a dental implant\u00a0is super simple and relatively quick. It only takes a few hours once your dentist has decided that implants are the best restoration for you. Once that happens, your dentist will refer you to a trusted oral surgeon, a specialist that can help you restore your smile without any problems.\r\n\r\nPrior to surgery, you\u2019ll be able to receive local anesthetic to numb the area and possible sedation dentistry to help you relax enough to receive your necessary dental care. These options are discussed with you at your consultation appointment, so you\u2019ll feel comfortable during your procedure and know exactly what to expect.\r\n\r\nThen, the oral surgeon makes a small incision in the gum tissue, revealing the bone. This creates space to insert your titanium dental implant post within your jawbone. Afterwards, you\u2019ll have to take some time to heal before returning to our office.\r\n\r\nThe final appointment is to have your personalized dental prosthetic placed. This is when your dental prosthetic (say a single dental crown to replace a single missing tooth), will be attached to your dental implant for a permanent solution to your tooth loss.\r\n\r\nYou can be confident that your dentist will be there for you every step of the way throughout your dental implant process\u2014from the initial consultation, preparation for the procedure, the actual surgical placement, and even afterwards for advice while you\u2019re healing\u2014ensuring the success of your dental implants!\r\n
