Dental Implant

Treatment

Dental Implants in Golden, CO

Severely damaged and missing teeth can lead to a range of problems, including difficulty in chewing and speaking, reduced self-confidence, and further oral health issues such as bone loss in the jaw. At Colorado Dental Spa, our dental implants provide a reliable solution to these problems by offering a permanent and natural-looking replacement for missing teeth.

What are Dental Implants?

Dental implants are a permanent solution for replacing missing teeth. They consist of three main components: 

• Titanium Post: This is a biocompatible screw-like post that is surgically inserted into the jawbone, acting as the root of the missing tooth. The titanium post integrates with the bone, ensuring a stable foundation for the implant.
• Abutment: Once the titanium post has fully fused with the jawbone, an abutment is attached to it. The abutment serves as the connector between the post and the final restoration.
• Restoration: The final component is the restoration, which can be a crown, bridge, or denture designed to match the natural appearance and function of your teeth. This completes the implant, providing a durable and aesthetic solution for tooth replacement.

What Dental Problems Can Implants Treat/Fix?

• Missing Teeth: Dental implants restore both the function and appearance of the natural teeth, ensuring a confident smile and proper oral function.
• Loose Dentures: Implants can stabilize loose dentures, improve comfort and eliminate the inconvenience and embarrassment of dentures shifting or slipping while speaking or eating.
• Difficulty Chewing or Speaking: Dental implants restore chewing and speaking abilities, allowing you to enjoy your favorite foods and speak clearly.
• Bone Loss in the Jaw: Dental implants stimulate the jawbone, preventing bone loss and preserving facial structure. This helps maintain a youthful appearance and supports overall oral health.

At Colorado Dental Spa, our dental implants are part of our commitment to providing comprehensive dental care.

Surgical Implant Placement

The journey to a restored smile begins with the surgical placement of a titanium post into the jawbone. This procedure places a titanium post that acts as a replacement root, integrating with the jawbone over time through a process called osseointegration. This provides a stable and durable foundation for the subsequent placement of the abutment and crown.

Implant Crowns

Implant crowns are custom-crafted to blend seamlessly with your natural teeth. Made from high-quality materials, they are designed to match the color, shape, and size of your existing teeth, providing a natural and aesthetically pleasing result. Once the titanium post has fully integrated with the jawbone, the abutment is attached, and the crown is securely placed on top. This restores the missing tooth, offering a durable and permanent solution that looks and feels like a natural tooth.

Implant Bridges

Implant-supported bridges are an excellent option for patients missing multiple teeth. Unlike traditional bridges that rely on adjacent teeth for support, implant bridges are anchored by dental implants. This provides a more stable and long-lasting solution, preventing the need to alter healthy teeth. Implant bridges not only restore the function and appearance of multiple missing teeth but also help to maintain the structure of the jawbone and overall oral health.

Implant Dentures

Unlike conventional dentures that can slip and cause discomfort, implant dentures are securely attached to dental implants. This provides a stable and comfortable fit, enhancing the ability to chew, speak, and smile with confidence. Full-mouth dentures eliminate the need for adhesives and reduce the risk of bone loss in the jaw. They offer a more natural look and feel, significantly improving the quality of life for patients who choose this option.

Benefits of Dental Implants

• Improved Appearance and Self-Esteem: Dental implants provide a natural-looking and aesthetically pleasing solution for missing teeth. This improvement in appearance can significantly boost self-esteem and confidence.
• Enhanced Oral Function (Chewing and Speaking): Implants allow you to chew your favorite foods and speak clearly without worry. This enhancement in oral function contributes to better overall health and quality of life.
• Durability and Longevity: Dental implants are designed to last for many years, often a lifetime, with proper care. This makes them a cost-effective option over time compared to other tooth replacement methods.
• Prevention of Bone Loss: Dental implants prevent bone loss in the jaw by providing necessary stimulation to maintain bone density. This helps preserve your facial structure and prevents the sunken appearance associated with bone loss.
• Comfort and Convenience Compared to Dentures: Implants eliminate the discomfort and inconvenience of removable dentures, as they are permanently fixed in the mouth. This results in a more natural and comfortable experience.
