Dental implants are revolutionary solutions for restoring missing teeth, offering durable, natural-looking replacements that function and feel like real teeth. At Sunset Oral and Facial Surgery in West Hollywood, CA, we specialize in providing comprehensive dental implant services, using advanced techniques and state-of-the-art technology to help our patients regain their smiles and oral functionality.
What Are Dental Implants?
Dental implants are titanium or Ceramic posts surgically positioned into the jawbone beneath the gum line. These posts act as sturdy anchors for replacement teeth or dental prosthetics, such as crowns, bridges or dentures. The implant fuses with the natural bone, creating a stable foundation for the artificial teeth, ensuring stability and longevity.
Our Approach
We understand that every patient has unique dental needs and concerns. That is why our board certified oral and maxillofacial surgeon, Dr. David Salehani, conducts thorough evaluations and personalized consultations to create tailored treatment plans. Whether it is a single missing tooth or multiple teeth, we customize our approach to meet individual requirements, ensuring optimal outcomes.
The dental implant procedure typically involves several steps. Firstly, Dr. Salehani places the implant into the jawbone during a minor surgical procedure. The implant bonds with the jawbone through a process called osseointegration, securing it firmly in place. An abutment is attached to the implant to serve as a connector for the replacement tooth or dental appliance. The final step is when a custom-made crown, bridge or denture is placed onto the abutment, completing the restoration.
Benefits of Dental Implants
Dental implants offer numerous advantages beyond just aesthetic enhancement. They provide stable and reliable support, allowing for natural chewing and speaking functions. Moreover, implants help preserve bone structure and prevent deterioration of the jawbone, which can occur after tooth loss. Additionally, they eliminate the inconvenience and discomfort associated with removable dentures, providing a permanent solution for tooth replacement.
Our patient-centered approach ensures that each individual is well-informed and comfortable throughout the implant process. We prioritize patient education, offering detailed information about the procedure, aftercare and expected outcomes. Dr. Salehani and our team maintain open communication, addressing any concerns or questions to ensure a smooth and stress-free experience.
