The first step when getting a dental implant is to place the implant post surgically in your jaw and allow it to heal for several months. When healing is complete, our Belton, TX dentists restore the function of the appearance by attaching a dental restoration like a dental crown, bridge, or full or partial denture. Ensuring the Success of Your Dental Implant in Belton
Your Lakewood Dental Trails team takes careful measures every step of the way to ensure that your dental implant is successful. Our experienced dentists start by assessing the bone quality and density of the implant area before placing the implant. They use world-class cone beam technology to determine the precise placement of your implant post. This results in an efficient, straightforward procedure and better long-term outcomes.
Fusing the implant with your jawbone is a critical part of the implant procedure. The implant post must have adequate time for full osseointegration to occur.
We Repair Dental Implants
Occasionally, a dental implant can be damaged or broken from excessive stress. When this occurs, it is usually due to biting down on a very hard object. If this happens to you, don’t panic. Try to collect all the parts of the implant that you can. If you have swallowed part of it, it will pass through your digestive system safely.
Call to schedule a dental appointment, so we can create a new implant crown for you and provide a temporary to wear while the new one is being made. Rarely, a failure of the implant itself can occur and may be due to insufficient bone or poor bone quality.
