What Are Dental Implants?
Hillsboro, Oregon
 In recent decades, few advancements have reshaped the field of dentistry as profoundly as dental implants. At our practice in Hillsboro, we recommend dental implants as practical, durable, and natural-looking solutions for those with missing teeth. Despite the downtime associated with surgical procedure, dental implants have surged in popularity among patients seeking to restore their smiles and enhance their oral health. At Century Dental, we offer this transformative treatment to improve the lives of countless individuals, empowering them to eat, speak, and smile with confidence. Dental implants herald a new era in dental care marked by durability, aesthetics, and functionality.
Understanding Dental Implants: A Closer Look
Dental implants serve as innovative devices for replacing missing teeth. Utilizing artificial attachments made up of the implant fixture, abutment, and prosthetic crown, they replicate the function, feel, and appearance of natural teeth. Crafted from biocompatible materials like titanium, dental implants seamlessly integrate with the jawbone through a process called osseointegration. This fusing of the dental implant with the jawbone, makes it a permanent restoration. This process takes an average of three to six months. We emphasize follow-up checks during this integration period to ensure proper healing and this also allows us to address any minor issues proactively.
Benefits of Dental Implants
Dental implants offer numerous benefits, making them the preferred choice for tooth replacement. Beyond unmatched stability and durability, these devices function like natural teeth, enabling confident eating, speaking, and smiling. Surgically anchored into the jawbone, dental implants provide a stable foundation for replacement teeth, eliminating concerns about shifting or slipping associated with traditional options, most commonly dentures. Dental implants help preserve bone structure, preventing the facial integrity issues often linked with missing teeth.
Navigating the Dental Implant Process
Understanding the dental implant procedure can alleviate concerns and provide peace of mind. The process involves several steps to ensure successful integration and long-term functionality. Beginning with a comprehensive examination and consultation, our dentist will assess your oral health and determine your suitability for dental implants. Subsequently, a titanium implant is surgically placed into the jawbone, followed by a recovery period of three to six months to facilitate osseointegration. Finally, a custom-made prosthetic crown is affixed to the abutment, completing the restoration process.
