Looks and Feels Natural: Dental implants are designed to blend seamlessly with your remaining natural teeth. They restore the aesthetics of your smile and also the natural feel in your mouth.

Restores Full Functionality: Dental implants function just like natural teeth. They allow you to eat, speak, and laugh without worrying about your prosthetic moving or slipping.

Preserves Facial Structure: By replacing the root structure of the missing tooth, dental implants help to prevent the jawbone from shrinking over time, maintaining the natural shape of your face and smile.

Long-Lasting Solution: With proper care and good oral hygiene, dental implants can last a lifetime, making them a cost-effective solution in the long run.

Prevents Bone Loss: When a tooth is lost, the jawbone in the empty space deteriorates due to lack of stimulation. Dental implants are the only tooth replacement option that also replaces the jaw bone stimulation, helping to prevent bone loss.

Protects Adjacent Teeth: Unlike a dental bridge, implant installation doesn’t require altering the structure of adjacent healthy teeth. This helps to protect your overall oral health.

How much do full mouth dental implants cost?

The cost of full mouth dental implants can vary significantly depending on several factors such as the number of implants required, the type of implants, the need for any preparatory procedures like bone grafts or sinus lifts, and the geographic location. It’s best to consult with your dentist at Iconic Dental Clinic for a personalized estimate.

Why can’t I have dairy products after getting a dental implant?

While not all dentists restrict dairy products after implant surgery, some might advise it as a precautionary measure. Certain dairy products, especially those with added sugars, can promote bacterial growth and potentially lead to infection. Additionally, some dairy, like hard cheese, may require vigorous chewing which could disturb the implant site.

What are the healing stages of a dental implant?

Dental implant healing usually occurs in stages. After the implant is placed, a process called osseointegration begins, where the jawbone fuses with the implant. This stage can take a few months. Once the implant is securely fused with the bone, the abutment and the crown are attached to the implant, completing the process. The total healing time can range from 3-6 months, but it varies depending on individual healing capacity and overall health.

Are there places that do same-day dental implants near me?

At Iconic Dental Clinic, we strive to provide efficient and quality services to our patients. While traditional implants require several visits and months of healing time, advancements in technology have made same-day dental implants a possibility for some patients. However, eligibility for this procedure depends on the patient’s oral health, bone density, and other factors. Consult with us to determine the best treatment plan for you.

How long do dental implants last?

With proper care and maintenance, dental implants can last a lifetime. This includes good oral hygiene practices at home and regular dental check-ups. However, the crown or dental prosthesis placed on the implant may require replacement after 10 to 15 years due to normal wear and tear.
