Popular Questions And Answers About Dental Implants

At Noble Oaks Dentistry, we offer a number of tooth replacement options. That being said, one of the most popular options, due to the many benefits this treatment provides to patients, is dental implants. If you are unfamiliar, dental implants provide a permanent base for replacement teeth. Over time, the prosthesis fuses with the jawbone to create a permanent and lasting solution. This treatment should not be taken lightly and patients often have questions about the procedure. We wanted to answer some of the most popular questions about dental implants.

Is the Entire Procedure Completed in Your Office?
Yes, we are able to place and restore dental implants. This means that the entire treatment is completed in our office. This not only saves you time, but it is also a comfort to know that the treatment is under the guidance of the same dentist and team.

Are Dental Implants Completed in One Office Visit?
Unfortunately, the process for dental implants is rather lengthy. Although it can be discouraging, dental implants can last for many years, if not the rest of your life, so we feel that the time needed for treatment is well worth it.

Are Dental Implants Noticeable?
One of the biggest benefits of dental implants is that they completely blend in with your natural teeth. We match the artificial tooth structure to your natural teeth. Patients love dental implants because they not only look like natural teeth, but they function like natural teeth as well.

Is it Difficult to Chew and Eat Properly?
Patients love dental implants because they restore the ability to chew properly and they are able to enjoy any food they choose, without restriction.

Is Care for Implants Difficult?
Once the treatment is complete, the care for dental implants is the same as your natural teeth. We recommend brushing and flossing as normal and visiting our office for hygiene examinations as suggested.
