MD Dental Implants by Dr. Silverman
Why Choose Dental Implants?
There are several key benefits of implants to consider when choosing a tooth replacement treatment:
- Reduces bone loss and shrinkage in the jaw bone
- Allows a varied, healthy diet without restriction
- Enables normal speech
- No need for daily maintenance and adhesives
- No fear of your teeth “falling out”
Dental implants have an over 95% success rate among current patients and can give you back a stable, naturally functioning smile.
About Dental Implants
While all dental implants function in the same manner, there are different ways to use them when replacing one or more teeth. Depending on whether they are replacing a single tooth or securing a denture, dental implants can vary in size and be attached to dental crowns, bridges and cosmetic hybrid dentures.
- Single tooth implants: used to replace one lost or missing tooth, a single tooth implants has three main parts: a post, an abutment and a dental crown.
- Multiple tooth dental implants: dental implants can be used to secure a dental bridge for a permanent restoration that is attached to the implanted post.
- Implant secured dentures: strategically placed dental implants are used to permanently secure your cosmetic denture.
The Implant Process
Dr. Silverman can perform all phases of your dental implant procedure in the comfort of our state of the art Owings Mills dentist office. This makes your treatment both consistent and convenient.
The implant process has three key phases:
- Implantation: the first step is the surgical implantation of the tiny titanium post into your jaw bone. Dr. Silverman offers sedation dentistry to make you comfortable during this part of the process.
- Osseointegration: this is the time needed for healing, during which the post integrates with the existing bone to ensure a healthy and stable result.
- Final restoration: once all the soft tissues have healed, Dr. Silverman will place your final restoration which could be a dental crown, dental bridge or denture.
