Restore Your Smile with Strength and Stability

When it comes to replacing missing teeth, dental implants offer the most secure, natural-looking solution available. At Pristine Dental and Orthodontics, we provide expertly placed implants that restore not only the appearance of your smile but also its full function—from speaking clearly to enjoying your favorite meals with confidence.

What Are Dental Implants?

Dental implants are small titanium posts that act as artificial tooth roots. Surgically placed into the jawbone, they fuse with the bone through a process called osseointegration, creating a stable foundation for crowns, bridges, or dentures. The result is a permanent and lifelike tooth replacement that looks and feels like your own.

Why Choose Implants?

Implants are considered the gold standard for tooth replacement, offering benefits unmatched by other options:

• Preserve jawbone health by stimulating natural bone growth
• Prevent shifting of nearby teeth and bite misalignment
• Restore chewing power and speech clarity
• Long-lasting—often lasting a lifetime with proper care
• Natural aesthetics, blending seamlessly with your existing teeth

What to Expect During the Implant Process

Step 1: Comprehensive Evaluation

We start with a thorough exam and digital imaging to assess bone density and determine if you’re a good candidate for implants. If bone loss has occurred, a bone graft may be recommended.

Step 2: Surgical Placement

The titanium implant post is placed into the jawbone during a minor surgical procedure. Healing time varies, but typically takes several months to allow the implant to fully integrate.

Step 3: Abutment & Restoration

Once healed, an abutment is attached to the implant to hold your custom-made crown, bridge, or denture. This final step completes your restoration for a fully functional, natural smile.

Are Dental Implants Right for You?

You may be a great candidate if you:

• Are missing one or more teeth
• Have a healthy jawbone and gums
• Are free of conditions that may affect bone healing
• Want a long-term, fixed alternative to dentures or bridges

Even if you’ve been told you’re not a candidate in the past, modern techniques may offer new options. We’ll guide you through the best path forward.
