When it comes to dental implants, the process often involves multiple steps and potentially different specialists. However, that is not the case when you visit Desert Dental Specialists. You can have your entire procedure done at our practice, including implant placements and any necessary oral surgery procedures like bone grafts. You avoid the need to visit separate specialists, streamlining the entire process.
In addition, you will also experience Dr. Bruno Lemay’s extensive implant placement experience. A member of The International Congress of Oral Implantologists, he has earned a fellowship from the California Implant Institute. He also has spent years instructing dentists throughout Canada and California on placing mini implants.
Your implant options include:
- Single Tooth Implants – This combination of a dental crown and implant is ideal for replacing individual missing teeth.
- Implant-Supported Bridges – You can replace multiple adjacent missing teeth with this option. It provides a stable and natural-looking solution. No nearby teeth need to be modified, unlike a traditional bridge.
- All-on-4 Implants – Your dentist can replace an entire arch of teeth using four dental implants. It’s a less invasive option than other kinds of implant dentures and gives you the same benefits.
- Implant Dentures – Secure your dentures to implants for a secure and lifelike dental function and fit. You won’t need adhesive, and your jaw won’t shrink as it does with traditional dentures.
- Mini Implants – This is a less invasive option for patients with insufficient bone density for traditional implants.
- Full-Mouth Reconstruction – Your dentist can rebuild your entire smile with procedures including implants, surgery, and restorative procedures.
Rebuild Your Smile With Our Expert Team
If you are ready to replace your missing teeth with implants, here is what you can expect:
- Comprehensive Exam – Your dentist will begin with a thorough exam. We’ll capture images of your mouth with 3-D imaging. They will use this information to assess your oral health and determine the best implant solution.
- Personalized Treatment Planning – Next, your dentist will develop a custom plan tailored to your unique needs and goals. They will review any necessary procedures, such as dental surgery, that may be needed to prepare your mouth for teeth implants.
- Precision Placement – Using computer-guided implant technology, your dentist will ensure accurate and minimally invasive placement of your implants. You can relax during your procedure with the help of sedation, if desired.
- Implant Integration – Once your implants are in place, your mouth will begin the osseointegration process. This is when your implants fuse with your jawbone, creating a stable foundation for your new teeth. Your dentist will monitor this process to ensure it goes smoothly.
- Custom Restoration – After your mouth has healed, your dentist will attach your custom-crafted crown, bridge, denture, or full-arch restoration to complete your smile.
