Dental Implants Patterson Lakes
Lost teeth can make you self-conscious whiling talking and smiling. It can also lead to biting irregularities. So, you may avoid food that is hard to chew or bite. Furthermore, changing your eating habits can also trigger secondary health illnesses like malnutrition.

Tooth loss can occur because of many reasons, such as:
  • Tooth decay
  • Failure of root canal procedure
  • Periodontitis
  • Congenital defects
  • Tooth injury
No matter what may be the cause of your tooth loss, we can help. At Lakeview Dental Clinic, we specialize in implants. Dental implants provide a reliable and long-term option for smile restoration.

Dental Implants Explained

Implants can be described as artificial yet functional tooth roots designed to support the restoration of lost tooth/teeth. Most often made from titanium, dental implants are posts like screws for tooth root replacement. They replace the root to provide a strong and stable foundation for a missing tooth with an artificial one that looks and functions like a real one.

Advantages of Dental Implant

Dental implants are becoming a preferred alternative over dentures and bridges among patients for missing teeth replacement. Patients prefer dental implants because they:
  • Look natural hence, provide improved appearance and self-esteem. You can talk and eat confidently without feeling conscious about yourself.
  • Provide stability and strength that patients need to eat and chew everything without the struggle
  • Are permanently infused in the gums, which eliminates the pain and discomfort associated with removable dentures
  • Improve the patient’s oral health. Unlike bridges, infusion of implants doesn’t require alteration of the surrounding teeth.
  • Are durable and can last a lifetime if patients take care of them properly
  • Provide unmatched convenience, as users don’t have to remove implants every night and deal with all the messy adhesives
  • Maintain and stimulate the jaw bone, thereby preventing the risk of bone loss while supporting facial features

How Does it Work?

Visit our clinic for a dental implant consultation with our experienced and qualified dentist. During the appointment, our dentist will examine your gums and teeth thoroughly. They will perform CT scans and X-rays to determine bone density and ensure adequate bone structure to place implants. Our dentist will proceed with the procedure if the treatment is suitable for the patient.

The cosmetic dental procedure begins with addressing underlying oral health problems like gum disease and tooth decay. The dentist places the dental implant in the jawbone surgically. The healing of the implant in the bone is a process that takes around six weeks or more. It is called osseointegration. During this phase, the jawbone grows and unites successfully with the dental implant’s surface needed to create a sturdy base for the artificial tooth. After the healing process, the artificial tooth is placed. It looks the same as your other teeth and fits perfectly.
