Dental Implants in Raleigh
If you’re missing any teeth at all, you’re a candidate for dental implants.
Dental implants help retain your facial structure by preventing bone from breaking down; this happens when teeth are missing. Implants are constructed to provide permanent results and act as the new building blocks to replacement teeth. They give a natural look and feel, while providing the same purpose of natural teeth. Be prepared to eat just about anything you want! Smiling will come more natural than ever before after you’ve had your dental implants. Colson Dental in Raleigh, NC knows how it’s done and it shows in our patients’ smiles.
The dental implants themselves are made of small titanium posts and are positioned where the tooth (or teeth) are missing. They bond beautifully with the jawbone, and provide a strong, lasting base for your new fabricated teeth.
People missing teeth know the dilemma behind food choices and smiling for a simple family photo for that matter. Implants offer a new window to living life.
When you decide to have dental implants you’re deciding to change your life in a positive way. We ask that you answer a few health questions and partake in a dental and x-ray exam. Your complete health history will be taken as well—to ensure your utmost safety during the procedure of course.
Dr. Colson or an Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeon will answer all questions you may have and will address any concerns before your procedure is scheduled.
Our patients have their questions answered; their concerns addressed, and are comfortable allowing our team to work with them to make their dental implant procedure a success.
Feel comfortable eating what you love again. Speak freely and openly again. Laugh out loud and enjoy life again. Call us today at 919-231-6053 to learn more and schedule an appointment in Raleigh today.
Dental Implant Method
This two-part (for most) surgical procedure happens when implants are placed directly into the jawbone. They barely poke through the gums where tiny posts are then attached. These posts are what give support for the replacement teeth. During the initial three to six months of bonding time between your jawbone and implant, we recommend eating soft foods. Also, dentures are allowed during this to ensure your comfort through the entire process. Meanwhile, Dr. Colson will be constructing what will ultimately be your final restoration.
Once the implant has bonded to your jawbone, we can begin the second phase. You’ll be given a small “healing collar”. At this point Dr. Colson will then begin creating your new teeth. Impressions are taken, and posts are attached to the implants. Replacement teeth will attach over the posts offering you a beautifully restored facial structure and smile.
The process takes about six to eight months depending on healing time and the number of dental implantations necessary. Technology is so advance today that most people can go about their daily lives without interruption! If you think this may be for you, call our Raleigh office 919-231-6053 today and schedule a consultation.
