Convenient, Comfortable, and Transformative
If you're missing a tooth, you likely want a solution that not only looks natural but also restores full functionality. At Cura Smiles in Houston, TX, Dr. Bishara offers an exceptional option: the single-tooth dental implant. This cutting-edge dental solution is designed to seamlessly integrate with your existing teeth and bone structure, providing a durable and aesthetically pleasing replacement that mimics the look and function of your natural teeth.
Rediscover Your Smile with Dental Implants
Single-tooth dental implants are a modern innovation in restorative dentistry, offering a permanent solution for tooth loss. The procedure involves placing a titanium implant post into the jawbone, which then fuses with the bone through a process called osseointegration. Once the implant is securely integrated, a custom-made crown is attached to it, completing the restoration with a natural appearance and fully restored functionality. This approach ensures that you can eat, speak, and smile with confidence, knowing your implant is both secure and reliable.
Beyond enhancing your smile, single-tooth dental implants also play a crucial role in preserving the health and structure of your surrounding teeth. Unlike traditional bridges, which require the alteration of adjacent teeth, implants stand alone without impacting neighboring teeth. This helps maintain the integrity of your natural teeth and gums, preventing future dental issues. Dr. Bishara’s expertise at Cura Smiles ensures that you receive personalized care and a high-quality solution that supports long-term oral health and overall well-being.
The Advantages of Single-Tooth Dental Implants
- Natural Appearance and Functionality
- Aesthetic Excellence: Dental implants are designed to mimic the look and feel of natural teeth. The crown, which is the visible part of the implant, is custom-made to match the color, shape, and size of your existing teeth.
- Functional Restoration: Beyond aesthetics, dental implants restore complete functionality, allowing you to chew, speak, and smile with confidence.
- Preservation of Natural Teeth
- Independence from Adjacent Teeth: Traditional dental bridges require the adjacent teeth to be filed down to serve as anchors. In contrast, a single-tooth implant stands alone, preserving the integrity of your natural teeth.
- Preventing Bone Loss: Implants help maintain jawbone density. When a tooth is lost, the jawbone can deteriorate over time. An implant stimulates the bone, preventing this loss and maintaining your facial structure.
- Long-Term Durability
- Permanent Solution: With proper care, dental implants can last a lifetime, making them a cost-effective solution in the long run.
- High Success Rate: Dental implants have a success rate of over 95%, making them a reliable choice for tooth replacement.
The Implant Procedure at Cura Smiles
Dr. Bishara and the team at Cura Smiles are committed to providing high-quality dental care with a personal touch. Here's what you can expect during the single-tooth implant procedure:
-
- Initial Consultation
- During your first visit, Dr. Bishara will perform a comprehensive examination, including X-rays and possibly a CT scan, to assess the condition of your jawbone and plan the implant placement.
- Implant Placement
- The dental implant, a small titanium post, is surgically placed into the jawbone. This serves as the root for the new tooth. Over the next few months, the implant will fuse with the bone in a process called osseointegration.
- Abutment Placement
- Once the implant has fully integrated with the bone, an abutment is attached to the implant. This piece connects the implant to the crown.
- Custom Crown Fabrication and Placement
- Finally, a custom-made crown is created to match your natural teeth and is attached to the abutment. Dr. Bishara ensures the crown fits perfectly, both in appearance and bite.
