Overview

Missing teeth can harm both your smile’s confidence and overall health. When we lose teeth, chewing and talking no longer stimulate the jawbone and tissues in that area. At Dental Solutions of Mississippi, we offer a permanent solution to our patients to replace a missing tooth called a dental implant. If you want dental implants in Canton, schedule a consultation with Dr. Ruth Roach Morgan or Dr. Jessica Morgan Vaughn today.

What is a Dental Implant?

Surgical Placement of Dental Implants

We surgically place dental implants, artificial tooth roots, into the jawbone of patients who have lost their natural teeth. We use dental implants to replace missing teeth, restore damaged teeth, or fill gaps between existing ones.

Components of a Dental Implant

A dental implant consists of two main parts: the implant itself and the artificial restoration that fills smile gaps.

Types of Dental Restorations

We offer a variety of artificial restorations, whether you’re missing one tooth or several.

Single-Tooth Replacement

For a single-tooth replacement, a dental implant supports a custom-made artificial tooth to fill the gap in your smile.

Multiple-Teeth Replacement

If you’re missing multiple teeth, we provide dental bridges, which consist of a row of artificial teeth securely anchored onto the implant. These bridges restore your smile’s appearance and improve functionality, making it easier to chew and speak. Additionally, dental implants provide a stable foundation for these restorations, ensuring they stay in place and function like natural teeth.

Creating and Placing Restorations

We make restorations in a dental lab and place them after the implant has healed.

The Implant: A Strong Foundation

Surgical Placement

We surgically place this part of the dental implant into your jawbone to serve as the root for your new artificial tooth or teeth.

Single vs. Multiple Implants

For a single-tooth restoration, only one implant is needed. If using a dental bridge, multiple implants may be placed for added stability.

Strength and Durability

Made of titanium, the implant provides a strong foundation and can withstand chewing pressure. Titanium implants ensure long-lasting stability and reliability, allowing your dental restoration to function just like natural teeth.

Implant Benefits

There are many reasons why people choose to get dental implants instead of traditional dentures. Here are some of the benefits of getting dental implants.

Are Dental Implants Right for Me?

Firstly, you should schedule a consultation to determine if you’re a suitable candidate for dental implants. During this consultation, we will thoroughly evaluate your oral health and assess your readiness for the procedure. If you’re a good candidate, we’ll conduct a diagnostic exam to address any issues before surgery. Afterward, we will develop a detailed treatment plan, outlining the steps and what you can expect after the procedure.

If you have bone loss, we may recommend a bone graft as part of your treatment. Essentially, a bone graft is a surgical procedure in which bone is harvested from one area of your body and carefully placed in another. Specifically, in the field of dentistry, we use bone grafts to rebuild and restore the jawbone, ensuring that it has sufficient density to securely hold the dental implant. This process provides a stable foundation for the implant, enhancing both function and appearance.
