AFFORDABLE DENTAL IMPLANTS NEAR YOU IN SAN DIEGO, CA

Receiving a dental implant near you isn't painful because our dentist first administers a sedative and a localized numbing agent or anesthetic. What you feel is the pressure as the dentist works to insert the implant screw surgically. However, there may be discomfort and some level of pain following the surgery. People with healthy bones and sufficient soft tissue may have a pain level of about 2 to 3 on a scale of 10 within the first 48 hours. You can manage pain using painkillers.

Single-tooth implants involve replacing one tooth using a single implant screw surgically mounted onto the bone. Another type is the multiple implants, where a dentist places one or two implants supporting multiple artificial teeth. An implant-supported bridge is a good example of multiple implants with two outer crowns attached to implant screws and the crowns at the center not attached to implant screws. All-on-4® dental implants are the third type and involve an entire arch of teeth mounted on and supported by only four or six implant posts or screws.

During dental implant surgery, patients are sedated to protect them from pain as they receive the invasive procedure. In most cases, the patients get conscious sedation and local anesthesia targeted to the surgery site. As such, a patient may remain awake, but they may not be able to speak. Our dentist will discuss your sedation options when receiving implants near you. If you have high anxiety and want to go to sleep, then a much deeper sedation that puts you to sleep may be considered.

Tooth implants are very successful, and the rate stands around 95 to 98 percent. As such, you should not be worried that your implants will have problems. Replacing teeth with implants is more successful than replacing them with dentures or fixed bridges. Nonetheless, once you have received the implants, ensure you have a high level of oral hygiene. You don't want them to develop a condition referred to as peri-implantitis that affects the gum tissue within the implant area. Peri-implantitis is a form of gum disease.

The implant screws are fabricated of metal, either titanium or zirconia and can last a lifetime. However, the crown component only lasts for a while. In most cases, implant crowns will survive for about 10 to 15 years before they can be replaced. You may only need to replace the crowns, not the implant part. Taking proper care by brushing and flossing lengthens the life of the implants. Again, seeing a dentist regularly allow any concerns to be picked up early on before they bring more damage to the implants or even other teeth and gums.

Your dentures can be made into dental implant dentures. The design conversion from dentures into implant dentures works well if you have removable implant-supported dentures. Those with a fixed bridge can have their prosthesis converted. However, it may be weakened significantly. Other things we look into are the jaw and gum anatomy. If we determine that your old denture cannot be turned into implant-supported dentures, we can as well do a whole set of implant-retained dentures or denture implants from scratch.

If you have typical dental implants with crowns, they are permanently affixed, and you cannot remove them. They are designed to remain permanently in the mouth. Dental implants are surgically mounted into the jawbone, where they osseointegrate to become one thing. As such, removing them as you do with removable dentures is impossible. However, you must keep the implants and the mouth clean to avert any disease that could impact their integrity.

Once you have extracted your tooth and are scheduled for dental implant placement, you have to wait for a window of time. The extraction site will need to heal so that you can have the implants placed. At a minimum, we would like to have 4 to 6 months wait time after extraction to place an implant surgery. Sometimes, though, you can have the implants loaded during tooth extraction. Nonetheless, our dentist must evaluate you for immediate load surgery because some patients may not be candidates.

Proper care for tooth implants is required to ensure their longevity and integrity. When choosing a toothpaste for implant care, consider the ones that are non-abrasive and have tartar control properties. These are best suited for the implants' surfaces. You must avoid toothpaste containing baking soda and those with too much fluoride or those formulated for smokers. Research has indicated that abrasive components and fluoride aren't best for the daily care and maintenance of dental implants. Visit us for affordable dental implants.

Maintaining good oral hygiene after dental implants is paramount because it expedites healing. We advise our patients not to use mouth rinses like Listerine or Scope and instead consider warm salt water. Put a teaspoon of salt in a cupful of warm water, and stir the mixture to get your natural mouth rinse. Avoid swishing and spitting vigorously when rinsing your mouth since it can irritate the surgical site. Talk to us about receiving affordable dentures and implants.
