What Are Dental Implants?

Milpitas dental implantsDental implants are the only solutions that replace the roots and crowns of missing teeth. They consist of titanium posts placed into your jaw to form the roots and artificial teeth that replace the crowns. The implants permanently fuse with the jawbone to create a stable foundation for restorations. Implants are very versatile and can support a variety of restorations, including dental crowns, bridges, and dentures.

To qualify for dental implants, you must have adequate jawbone to support the implants, as well as excellent oral health. In case of inadequate jawbone strength, you may have to undergo a bone graft or sinus lift to boost its density and volume before your implant procedure. You should also receive treatment for oral health issues like gum disease to create a healthy foundation for your implants.

Our Milpitas Dental Implant Process

At Dixon Landing Family Dental Care, we can place and restore dental implants. We also perform bone grafts and sinus lifts whenever necessary. The entire treatment process can take several months from start to finish.

If you have any questions or concerns, our team is happy to address them so you can be confident in our treatments. You can expect the following process when you visit us for dental implants:

Step 1: Evaluation and Planning - We begin your implant procedure with an in-depth oral health evaluation to establish your eligibility and plan your treatment. We utilize our in-house CBT scanner to ensure precise placement of your implant restorations. The technology minimizes complications and facilitates smooth, successful treatment.


Step 2: Placement - After ensuring you are eligible for dental implants, our dentist will carefully place the implant posts. We use computer-guided surgery on all implant procedures to boost the efficiency and success of your treatment. Our team will take all measures to maximize your comfort and provide an optimal experience, including providing nitrous oxide sedation if requested.


Step 3: Resting - After placing your dental implants, you will need time to rest and heal. This step is crucial as it allows the implants to fuse with the jawbone for stability. Since every patient is unique, healing can take several weeks or months, depending on your overall health and number of implants.


Step 4: Restoration - Once you've healed, you will come in for the final steps to complete your implants. Our dentist will attach an abutment to your implant post, which will support your custom restoration to replace your missing teeth completely. You can then eat, speak and smile as you would with natural teeth.

Long-Term Benefits of Dental Implants

Dental implants are among the most reliable and effective solutions for tooth loss. Some of the top benefits of dental implants include:

  • They stimulate your jawbone for better bone health.
  • Implants preserve your natural facial structure by preventing bone loss.
  • They prevent your remaining teeth from shifting.
  • Implants look natural within your smile, resulting in a confidence boost.
  • They can withstand the pressure of chewing and grinding and won't slip or become dislodged.

Whether you're missing one or several teeth, you can enjoy these benefits and more with our Milpitas dental implants.

What Type of Dental Implant Do I Need?

With various implant-supported restorations to choose from, it can be difficult deciding what is best for your smile. Our dentist will help you determine the type of implant that suits you. We can provide these options when you visit our practice:

Single Dental Implant: A single dental implant is ideal for replacing one missing tooth. It supports a single natural-looking crown.


Implant-Supported Bridge: Implant-supported bridges are useful when you are missing a series of teeth. They can support up to three missing teeth in a row.


Implant-Supported Dentures: Dentures can be partial or complete. Partial dentures work well when you have a few remaining teeth on your upper or lower arch, while complete dentures replace an entire set of missing teeth.


All-on-4® Dental Implants: All-on-4 is an innovative procedure that uses only four dental implants to support complete dentures on your upper or lower jaw or both. This helps retain your jawbone structure and provides adequate support for the restoration on a reduced number of implant posts.

How Do I Care for My Dental Implant?

You can take care of your implants as you would natural teeth by flossing and brushing at least twice a day. You'll also want to come in for your biannual dentist visits so that we can provide consistent care and make any adjustments to your restoration if needed.

Although dental implants are permanent, restorations are susceptible to damage and normal wear and tear. Therefore, avoid misusing your new teeth by using them to open cans or bottles. If you smoke, consider quitting the habit as it negatively affects your oral health.
