Dental Implants

Tooth loss affects your smile, but it's more than a cosmetic concern; it can impact your comfort, confidence, and even quality of life. If you are tired of removable dentures or want a permanent solution to missing teeth, dental implants at Mesquite Dental Suite are worth considering.

What are Dental Implants?

Dental implants act as artificial tooth roots, providing a strong foundation for fixed (permanent) or removable replacement teeth. They consist of three main components:

Implant — A titanium post is surgically placed in the jawbone to replace the missing tooth root.
Abutment — An attachment that connects the implant post to the restoration
Restoration — A crown, bridge, or denture that replicates the appearance and function of natural teeth and enhances your smile.

The Benefits of Dental Implants

Dental implants are considered the gold standard for tooth replacement, and for good reason:

High Success Rate — Dental implants boast a success rate of up to 95 percent, making them a reliable tooth replacement.
Longevity — A dental implant becomes part of your dental anatomy and can last 20 years or longer, even a lifetime in some cases.
Jawbone Preservation — Implants stimulate the jawbone, preventing bone loss and sagging facial features.
Stability — An implant stabilizes surrounding teeth and ensures they don’t shift or move.
Enhanced Chewing — Unlike removable dentures, implants restore nearly full chewing function, so you can return to eating all your favorite foods.
Aesthetic Enhancement — Our experienced dentists design your replacement teeth to look realistic and natural, blending seamlessly with your smile.

Getting Dental Implants at Mesquite Dental Suite

Your journey to a restored smile begins with a comprehensive evaluation at our Mesquite, TX, dental office. Our dentists discuss your oral health and smile goals and determine if you have sufficient jawbone density to get an implant. If you don't, all is not lost; we offer bone grafting and will be happy to discuss this option with you.

Dental implant surgery is a straightforward procedure performed under local anesthetic to ensure your comfort. Leading-edge technology guides our dentists to ensure precise placement for the best results.

After placement, the titanium post heals and fuses with the jawbone in a process called osseointegration, which typically takes 3-6 months. Then, our dentists attach the abutment and secure the final tooth restoration to it.

The Value of Dental Implants

Dental implants are superior to any other tooth replacement available today but do require a larger upfront investment than other tooth replacements. However, their longevity, improved quality of life, and oral health benefits make them a worthwhile investment in your smile.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do dental implants compare to other tooth replacements?

Dental implants are considered the gold standard in tooth replacement because they are stable, long-lasting, and similar to our natural tooth structure. While bridges and dentures restore aesthetics and some function, implants closely replicate the feel, look, and function of natural teeth.

Dental Implants in Mesquite, TX

At Mesquite Dental Suite, we offer state-of-the-art dental implant solutions. Our skilled team understands the importance of having a smile that looks good, feels natural, and functions effectively.

Understanding the Dental Implant Difference

Long-Lasting — Dental implants fuse with your jawbone and stay securely in place for many years. With proper care, they can last a lifetime, unlike bridges or dentures, which might need replacements or adjustments over the years.
Jawbone health — An implant prevents jawbone loss, which often occurs after tooth loss. This helps maintain your facial structure and prevent the "sunken" appearance common with prolonged denture use.
Comfort and function — Unlike removable dentures, implants allow you to eat, speak, and laugh without worrying about shifting or embarrassing slips.
Aesthetics — Bridges and dentures replace the tooth's visible part, but implants replace the root and crown for the most natural appearance possible.
