Dental Implants Queens NY

Dental implants Queens NY are metal posts that are surgically anchored into the jawbone to replace missing tooth roots and provide a permanent base for replacement teeth that look, feel, and function like natural teeth. The implants fuse with the bone around them through a process called osseointegration over the course of a few months following placement. Once the dental implants have fused to the bone, abutments are attached to the posts to securely hold prosthetic teeth in place. The whole process can take anywhere from six to nine months. Most patients experience minimal disruption in their daily life during the dental implant process.

While crowns and bridges are very effective, they do come with some disadvantages. For one thing, they require the alteration of healthy teeth. They also require patients to undergo multiple treatments over several months to complete treatment. Additionally, they can only be placed on top of strong, healthy teeth and cannot be used on patients who have lost many of their natural teeth to decay or disease. These reasons make dental implants Queens NY an ideal option for replacing missing teeth.

Dental implants Queens NY are small titanium posts that replace the roots of your missing tooth’s structure. Once they are implanted into the jawbone, they will fuse with the existing bone and become a permanent part of your mouth. After the implant has healed and integrated with your jaw, an abutment will be placed on top of the implant. This is the piece that will connect your restoration to the dental implant. After the abutment is placed, a custom crown will be created to match your other surrounding teeth. The crown will be securely connected to the abutment to complete your smile makeover!
