What are Dental Implants?

Dental implants are the most durable and natural-looking replacement option for missing teeth. They function, feel and look just like natural teeth and can last a lifetime.

Dental implants are posts that act as replacement tooth roots, and are made out of either titanium or a bio-compatible ceramic. Dental implants can be used to support a single  crown, a dental bridge or a denture.

Because of recent technical advances in dentistry, most people are now able to receive dental implants and enjoy their many benefits. Let’s take a look at our offered dental implant solutions:

Implants to Replace Individual Teeth

Dr. Reshad places a dental implant to act as the root of a replacement tooth. A connecting piece known as an abutment is placed on top of the implant and acts as the attachment point for a dental crown.

The implant-supported new tooth feels, functions and looks just like a regular tooth and can be brushed and flossed just like your real teeth. Patients have commented that they cannot tell the difference between their implant tooth and their natural teeth.

Implant-Supported Bridges

Where several teeth in a row are missing, Dr. Reshad can place a series of implants to support a dental bridge. Implant-supported bridges have nearly the same biting and chewing power as regular teeth and provide the biting and chewing pressure needed to prevent bone loss under the bridge.

A series of implant-supported bridges is the best replacement option for an entire arch of missing teeth as they provide the same flexibility as regular teeth and have nearly the same biting and chewing power.

Implant-Supported Removable Dentures

The most cost-friendly solution for replacing an entire arch of missing teeth is to use dental implants to support a removable denture. This denture securely snaps onto the implants but can still be easily removed by you when needed.

Your implant-supported removable dentures won’t need adhesives to be held in place, you will have about 60% of normal biting and chewing power, and you will be spared the pain and discomfort that comes from unsupported dentures rubbing against your dental arch.

All-on-4 Dental Implants

All-on-4 Dental Implants

This breakthrough procedure uses four specially-designed implants placed at precise angles in the jaw where the bone is of the highest volume and density and can provide the greatest stability. Bone grafting is usually not needed. Patients with a lot of bone loss who would not otherwise have been candidates to receive dental implants are usually candidates for New Teeth in One Day.

Mini dental implants

Mini Dental Implants

Mini dental implants are smaller in size than standard-sized implants and are sometimes an economical alternative in your implant treatment. They can be used for placing implants in very small spaces and sometimes can function to support a denture.  Dr. Reshad will tell you if mini-dental implants are an option and will happily answer your questions.


New Teeth in One Day

There is an economical alternative to a series of dental bridges to replace a dental arch of missing teeth. If you are missing all your teeth or need all your teeth replaced, Dr. Reshad can place four specially designed implants in your dental arch which will support new fixed-in teeth that can only be removed by the dentist.

With the New Teeth in One Day procedure, you can now receive a full arch of replacement teeth in as little as one day!

Expert Treatment for Dental Implant Complications

We will sometimes see patients who received implants in the past and are now having problems with them. Although the vast majority of implant placements are successful, a very small percentage of them develop complications that need special treatment or replacement with a new implant.

Where inadequate bone is present to support an implant, Dr. Reshad will graft bone material into the implant site to regenerate the needed bone. He uses the latest procedures and materials for minimally invasive and effective bone regeneration.

Dental Implants FAQs

If you have any questions about dental implants, we’ve got answers.

The success rate, under optimal conditions and when performed by specialists like the OC Perio & Implants Dental Group, is approximately 99%. When performed by a general dentist who might not be experienced or qualified, can fall to approximately 80%.

Specialists undergo thorough training in the intricacies of the jaw, bone structure, and gum tissue, as well as in the surgical techniques that are specific to dental implants. Their expertise in managing complex cases, preventing, identifying, and treating complications, significantly improves the success rate and longevity of the implants.

While many general dentists are capable of placing dental implants, they may not have the same level of specialized training and experience as specialists. Complex cases, such as those that require bone grafts or dealing with significant bone loss, may pose challenges that can affect the success rate of implants placed by general dentists.

As part of their specialist education, periodontists receive extensive training in all aspects of implant placement. Over time, a periodontist completes many different types of dental implant cases and runs across many kinds of oral health situations. As a result, patients can expect the following:

  • Better aesthetics
  • Better function
  • Reduced risk of implant failure
  • Better long-term success rates
  • The ability to provide gum and bone grafting when necessary
  • Competence in treating complex cases
  • Quick and efficient treatment, which equals shorter time in the chair, faster healing time and less discomfort
