Dental Implants Defined

A dental implant is an artificial tooth root, commonly made from biocompatible titanium, that is surgically placed into the jawbone. Once healed, the implant can support a dental crown, bridge, or implant-supported denture.

Unlike traditional removable dentures, dental implants are designed to provide a stable foundation for replacement teeth. The implant can fuse with the surrounding jawbone through a natural healing process called osseointegration, helping create a secure foundation for your restoration.

For patients considering dental implants in Santa Rosa, treatment may offer benefits such as improved chewing ability, greater stability, and a natural-looking replacement for missing teeth.

Benefits of Dental Implants

Dental implants may be an option for replacing one or more missing teeth. Depending on your individual circumstances, potential benefits can include:

• A stable foundation for replacement teeth

• A natural-looking appearance

• Improved chewing and speaking ability

• Replacement of individual missing teeth without relying on removable dentures

• Support for implant-supported bridges or dentures

• A long-term tooth replacement option with proper care and maintenance

Your Santa Rosa implant dentist will evaluate your oral health and discuss the benefits, limitations, and alternatives before recommending treatment.

How Dental Implant Placement Works

• Consultation and Planning

  Your dental implant journey begins with a comprehensive evaluation. Dr. Wayne Sutton will assess your teeth, gums, jawbone, and overall oral health. X-rays and digital imaging may be used to evaluate the treatment area and help develop a personalized plan. Your consultation is also an opportunity to discuss your goals, concerns, and available tooth replacement options.

• Implant Placement

  If dental implants are appropriate for you, the implant is carefully positioned in the jawbone. The area then requires time to heal as the implant integrates with the surrounding bone.

  The length of the healing process varies depending on the patient and the complexity of treatment.

• Restoration

  Once the implant has adequately healed, it can be restored with a custom-made dental crown, bridge, or implant-supported denture.

  Your restoration is designed to complement your smile while helping restore everyday functions such as eating and speaking.
