Frequently Asked Questions
What Are Dental Implants Made Of?
Dental implants are typically made from medical-grade titanium, a biocompatible material that integrates with natural bone. Titanium provides strength, stability, and long-term durability while minimising the risk of rejection or allergic reaction.
How Are Dental Implants Placed In The Jawbone?
Implants are surgically positioned into the jawbone under local anaesthesia or sedation. After placement, the implant gradually integrates with the surrounding bone during a healing process called osseointegration.
How Long Does Implant Surgery Take?
Single implant placement usually takes one to two hours, depending on complexity. Surgical time varies based on bone condition, number of implants, and whether additional procedures are required.
What Is The Healing Period After Implant Placement?
Healing typically takes three to six months. During this period, the implant bonds securely with the jawbone, creating a stable foundation for the final crown or prosthetic restoration.
What Is Osseointegration?
Osseointegration is the biological process where the implant fuses directly with the surrounding jawbone. This integration creates a strong, stable base capable of supporting normal biting and chewing forces.
Can Smokers Receive Dental Implants?
Smokers may qualify for implants, but smoking increases the risk of healing complications and implant failure. A detailed consultation helps evaluate individual risk and determine suitability.
What Happens If A Dental Implant Fails?
Implant failure is uncommon but may occur due to infection or inadequate integration. In many cases, the implant can be removed, the site treated, and replacement considered after healing.
Are Implant Crowns Custom Made?
Yes, implant crowns are custom fabricated to match surrounding teeth in shape, size, and color. This ensures natural appearance, functional bite alignment, and long-term durability.
Do Dental Implants Prevent Bone Loss?
Yes, implants stimulate the jawbone through functional chewing pressure. This stimulation helps maintain bone density and reduces progressive bone deterioration associated with missing teeth.
How Much Do Dental Implants Cost In Framingham?
Costs vary depending on implant number, bone condition, and restoration type. A consultation provides accurate evaluation, imaging, and a detailed cost estimate based on individual treatment needs.
