At Moore Smiles in Sweetwater, we guide our patients through each step of the dental implant process to ensure a successful and comfortable experience.
Initial Consultation
The dental implant process begins with an initial consultation during which we will evaluate your oral health, review your health history, and determine if you're a suitable dental implant candidate.
Treatment Planning
Next, we create a plan outlining the steps involved in your implant procedure, the number of implants needed, and any additional treatments, such as bone grafting or extractions.
Dental Implant Placement
Performed under local anesthesia to ensure comfort, the implant placement procedure involves surgically inserting the dental implant post into the jawbone.
Abutment Placement
Next, we attach an abutment (connector piece) to the implant post. The final restoration will eventually be secured to the abutment.
Restoration
The final step in the process is placing your custom-made dental crown, bridge, or denture onto the abutment. We craft each restoration to seamlessly match your smile and complement your appearance. We even consider your eye and hair color, skin tone, bone structure, and more to ensure your new smile looks beautiful and natural.
Follow-Up Care
Regular follow-up appointments are essential to monitor the health and function of the implant.
