Looking for the most reliable replacement for one or more lost teeth? Tooth loss can occur for a number of reasons, including injury, extensive decay, and tooth damage. Fortunately, you can restore your complete, confident smile with permanent dental implants! Implants can rebuild your smile with a long-lasting solution that looks and feels natural.
When you visit our dental team in Upland, you can expect top dental implant services that are customized to each unique smile!
What Are Dental Implants?
Dental implants are long-lasting prosthetics that serve as replacements for missing teeth. Each implant includes three parts: the titanium post, the abutment, and the dental crown. Together, these three parts work like the root and crown of a natural tooth to fill gaps left by lost teeth.
Dental implants are designed to fuse with the jawbone to form a durable anchor for your new teeth. Implants are designed to provide a lifetime of smiles with proper care! At Smile Studio Upland, we custom-make dental implants through a high-grade manufacturing laboratory, ensuring a final look that becomes a seamless part of your smile.
We offer the following implant systems at our dental office in Upland:
- All-on-4: In cases of more significant tooth loss, dental implants can serve as anchors for specialized dentures. Called All-on-4 dentures, this unique prosthetic uses the implants as anchors for enhanced stability over traditional options.
Your new smile begins with a dental implant consultation, ensuring each patient is matched with the best option for their smile. At your consultation, our team will discuss your goals and examine your smile to build the best treatment plan for you.
What are the Benefits of Dental Implants?
Working with a skilled implants specialist at Smile Studio Upland is an excellent way to have the greatest amount of benefit from your dental implants, with top benefits including:
- Precise placement and quality materials: These are key to having a natural result that lasts for decades.
- Long-lasting restoration: For most patients, it can be a permanent replacement for a missing tooth. Other options may wear down after several years, but dental implants can last for 20–30 years or beyond.
- Minimal limitations: While we still recommend avoiding excessively hard foods (as we would for natural teeth), it places little restriction on your diet. Continue to enjoy all the same foods you have always consumed.
- Natural appearance: No one will suspect that you have an artificial tooth. Our 3D-scanned impressions ensure we can make a crown that is customized to look like it was always a part of your smile.
- Improved oral health: Prolonged tooth loss can lead to new oral health problems, such as changes to your jaw shape or loss of bone mass. Implants can put a stop to this process.
Caring for Your New Implants
Dental implants are designed to last for decades, but will require proper dental care and cleaning to function at their best! At Smile Studio, we recommend patients brushing their implants at least twice a day, just like they would their natural teeth!
It is important to maintain good dental hygiene habits, but we also recommend visiting us twice a year for routine exams to ensure that there are no other dental health concerns requiring treatment.
