Dental Implants

Dental Implants

 

The first known dentures were worn in the 5th century BC and everyone who struggles with dentures today knows that the technology is three thousand years outdated. What a pain, not only in daily dealing with your dentures, but real, literal pain from loose fitting and sore-inducing appliances that eventually destroy bone!  Many dentures don't look right, they can loosen and fall out at the most inopportune times, the cleaning can be tedious and there are foods that cannot be eaten.

There's a better way.

Dental implants solve all of the problems we just mentioned. In a nutshell, screws are placed into the jawbone where teeth once grew. These screws hold a titanium framework that, in turn, holds acrylic, composite or porcelain teeth that are designed to look identical to real teeth.

Once placed, the implants are treated just like your original teeth. Laugh, smile and throw away your denture bond! Care for your implanted teeth and brush them just like you used to brush your own teeth.  

The Procedure

The first step in replacing missing teeth with implanted teeth is to schedule an appointment with Sunshine Dentistry in Nogales, AZ. Our dentist will examine you, review your dental and medical history and determine if implants would be your best option. Next, you may be requested to obtain a facial CT for a 3D look at the bone structure to insure bone strength and absence of abnormalities that might cause complications.

Another appointment will be scheduled for placement of the implant screw. The bone is allowed to grow around the screw for about three months. During your final procedural appointment the permanent crown (tooth) will be placed on the screw.

Most insurance plans will not cover dental implants as they consider them to be cosmetic. The cost is about $5,000 per tooth.
