Dental Implants at Riverside Dental
At Riverside Dental, we specialize in providing dental implants — a modern solution for replacing missing teeth that Wichita patients trust and recommend. Whether you’ve lost teeth due to decay, periodontal disease, or an injury, dental implants offer a durable, stable, and aesthetically pleasing solution. Recognized for their natural look and feel, dental implants are the choice that Wichita patients love for restoring their smiles and enhancing their quality of life.
What Are Dental Implants?
Dental implants are titanium posts that are surgically inserted into the jawbone beneath your gum line. This post serves as a sturdy anchor for a crown, bridge, or denture that replaces your missing tooth or teeth. Unlike other tooth replacement options, dental implants fuse to your jawbone, providing a permanent base for the replacement teeth. This integration helps maintain jaw structure, prevents bone loss, and supports facial contours.
The Benefits of Dental Implants
Dental implants offer numerous benefits over traditional dentures or bridges. Here are just a few reasons why dental implants are a popular choice:
Natural Appearance: Dental implants look, feel, and function like your natural teeth. They are crafted to blend seamlessly with your existing teeth, making them virtually indistinguishable.
Durability: Because they fuse to your bone, dental implants are incredibly stable and can last a lifetime with proper care.
Improved Oral Health: Unlike bridges, dental implants do not require altering adjacent teeth, which preserves more of your natural tooth structure. The presence of implants also stimulates bone growth and prevents bone deterioration in the jaw.
Enhanced Comfort and Confidence: With dental implants, you won’t experience the slipping or discomfort that can occur with traditional dentures. You’ll enjoy a restored ability to chew and speak with confidence.
The Process of Getting Dental Implants
Getting dental implants involves several steps, each designed to ensure the best outcomes for our patients:
Consultation and Planning: Your journey begins with a thorough evaluation at our Wichita office. We use advanced imaging techniques to assess your oral health and jawbone structure, ensuring that dental implants are the right option for you.
Implant Placement: The implant placement is a surgical procedure where the titanium post is placed into the jawbone. This procedure is performed under local anesthesia, and we ensure your comfort throughout the process.
Healing and Osseointegration: After placement, a period of healing is necessary for the implant to integrate with the bone — a process known as osseointegration. This can take several months, but it is crucial for the stability of the implant.
Abutment and Crown Placement: Once osseointegration is complete, an abutment is attached to the implant. This abutment serves as the base for your new tooth (crown), which will be custom-made to match the color and shape of your natural teeth.
