Implants & Implant Crowns
A Long-Lasting, Natural Solution for Missing Teeth
If you’re missing a tooth and want to replace it without involving neighboring teeth, a dental implant is often the best option. Dental implants are designed to look, feel, and function like natural teeth, making them the closest replacement option available in modern dentistry.
Dental implants also have one of the highest success rates of all medical devices, supported by decades of clinical research and long-term studies.
What Is a Dental Implant?
A dental implant is a small titanium post that is placed into the jawbone to replace the root of a missing tooth. Over time, the implant integrates with the bone, creating a stable foundation for a custom dental crown.
Once complete, the implant and crown work together to restore:
Chewing function
Natural appearance
Speech clarity
Jawbone support
Unlike bridges, dental implants do not rely on surrounding teeth for support.
The Dental Implant Process
Dental implants are typically completed in two carefully coordinated phases, with a strong emphasis on planning and long-term success.
Phase 1: Implant Placement & Healing
The process begins with a consultation and evaluation by a trusted surgical specialist who places the dental implant. After the implant is placed, a healing period allows the implant to fully integrate with the jawbone.
We work closely with our surgical partners throughout this phase to monitor healing and ensure everything progresses smoothly.
Phase 2: Implant Crown Placement
Once healing is complete, you’ll return to Sorin Dental Wellness for the final restoration. A custom implant crown is designed and placed using specialized tools and techniques to ensure proper fit, bite alignment, and aesthetics.
The result is a replacement tooth that looks and functions just like a natural one.
