Dental Implants at AZ Lifetime Dentistry

At AZ Lifetime Dentistry, we have the capacity and expertise to artfully restore smiles that have suffered missing teeth. One of the amazing ways Dr. Gina Elrod can help replace missing teeth is with dental implants. Dental implants serve a variety of functions. From improving the look of your smile, to helping you eat and speak better. Dental implants are one of the best and most reliable ways to replace missing teeth. Missing teeth left untreated can lead to increased risk for gum disease, and bone atrophy. This can age a person faster, and require other dental procedures to treat. To take charge of your oral health and be confident in your smile, dental implants at AZ Lifetime Dentistry is an excellent choice.
Dental Implants
Dental implants are currently the industry gold standard in tooth replacement technology. Dental implants are surgically inserted through the gums and into the jawbone. After a healing period of 3-6 months the implant becomes fused with the jawbone, providing a sturdier, more permanent base for natural-looking teeth. Implants can be used to replace a single tooth with a crown, multiple teeth with a bridge, or a full set with implant-supported dentures or All-on-4.
Am I a candidate for dental implants?
If you are interested in dental implants, we will first have you schedule a consultation. During that appointment we will do an exam where we look for any issues that may prevent you from having the procedure. We will be looking for things like gum disease and bone density. If you have active periodontal disease, we will want to treat that before we place an implant, so we know the implant will be placed in healthy tissue. Similarly, if you do not have enough jawbone to place the implant, we can discuss the option of bone grafting for solid support. In most cases we can help our patients get their mouth and jaw ready for dental implants.
