What Are Dental Implants?

Tooth implants are artificial tooth roots typically consisting of body-safe material like titanium or titanium alloy. A dental implant consists of three sections: the implant post, an abutment, and restoration. Dr. Moushati will surgically place your implant into your jawbone so that the abutment sits just above your gumline. Your restoration is then placed over the abutment for a durable and natural-looking tooth replacement.

Our 5-Step Dental Implant Process

At Quality Dentistry, we are committed to providing modern and innovative dental services to you and your loved ones. Our team is proud to utilize computer-guided dental implant placement to ensure the utmost precision and to help minimize your healing time. Once you qualify for tooth replacement in Coconut Creek, we implement the following five-step process:

1. 3D Imaging

Our team begins the implant placement process with a quick and accurate computed tomography (CT) scan. These 3D images allow our dentist to thoroughly analyze your bone structure and anatomy.

2. Planning

Utilizing cutting-edge digital software, our dentist can create and visualize the end result of your treatment before the surgery.

3. Surgical Guide Creation and Implant Placement

Before placement, Dr. Moushati will fabricate a surgical guide. We then use this guide to ensure that your new implant posts are placed safely and precisely. Some of the benefits of using a surgical guide include:

Less invasive
Improved accuracy
Minimized surgical time
Less invasive
Faster healing times
Decreased pain after surgery
Predictable results

4. Healing

Once the placement is complete, it typically takes four to six months for your new implant post to fully integrate into your jaw. Once this happens, your jaw and implant post can withstand the load of your restoration.

5. Restoration Placement

The final step in our process is to place the dental restoration atop the implant post. When finished, your bite will be restored, and you'll be able to once again smile with confidence.

Our Tooth Replacement Options in Coconut Creek

Our dentist and his staff will conduct an extensive oral exam during your initial appointment. They'll determine how many teeth you have missing, if your remaining teeth are healthy, and the condition of your jawbones. We'll create a personalized treatment plan that outlines which of our restorative offerings we think are right for you.

Our implant-supported restorations include, but are not limited to:

Crowns: Implant-supported crowns are an excellent option if you have a single missing tooth. They'll replace your tooth from root to crown and are designed to match the shade of your remaining teeth for a seamless appearance. As your Coconut Creek tooth implant provider, we can place multiple implant-supported crowns in your upper and lower arches.
Bridges: Implant-supported bridges are ideal for replacing multiple missing teeth in a row. Typically, bridges can replace three adjacent missing teeth. Instead of using adjoining teeth to anchor the restoration, implant-supported bridges use two dental implants to secure the restoration in place and restore your bite.
Dentures: Are you missing multiple or all your teeth in your upper or lower jaws? Our team can restore the function and beauty of your smile with implant-supported partial or full dentures. We take the time to assess your smile and any remaining teeth to ensure we recommend the denture solution that will provide long-term benefits.
All-on-4®: If you are missing an entire arch of teeth or are unhappy with your traditional dentures, you may be eligible for All-on-4. This innovative procedure uses only four dental implant posts to secure an entire arch of teeth. You must have adequate bone density and healthy gums to qualify for All-on-4. Regardless of your situation, we have the expertise to help.

Providing You with Excellent Pretreatments

At Quality Dentistry, we pride ourselves on our ability to treat the majority of our patients in-house. We offer various pretreatment options that help prepare your smile for dental implants. Some of our pretreatment options include:

Extractions: One of our primary goals is to save as many of your natural teeth as possible. However, it may be necessary to remove your tooth if it's been affected by severe decay or dental trauma. If your tooth requires removal, we'll gently perform the procedure and ensure that your gums are in a healthy and ideal condition for dental implant placement.
Bone Grafts and Sinus Lifts: For dental implants to stay in place, they require a healthy jawbone for a secure hold that lasts decades. If your jawbone is weak or brittle, we can perform a bone graft or sinus lift, which are procedures that surgically place bone into your jaws to improve their strength and density.

3 Benefits of Dental Implants

Dental implants have numerous benefits that help make them an attractive option for countless patients each year. If you're undecided on whether tooth implants in Coconut Creek are right for your smile, our team is more than happy to outline some of the benefits you can expect with them, including:

Preventing Bone Loss: When you have a missing tooth, the jawbone in the empty space begins to deteriorate because of a lack of stimulation. Dental implants are directly placed into your jawbone, and simple actions like biting and chewing can keep your bone healthy and stimulated.
Keeping Adjacent Teeth Stable: Although your remaining teeth are durable, they're prone to movement and can shift out of place because of missing teeth. Teeth shifting can negatively affect your smile and lead to dental misalignment issues requiring orthodontic treatment. Dental implants prevent your remaining teeth from shifting out of place.
Preventing Facial Sagging: If you're experiencing bone loss from multiple missing teeth, your face may begin to sag. The lower part of your face can collapse and gradually close the distance between your nose and chin. Not only can this place stress on your skin and lead to wrinkling, but it can thin your lips. Dental implants stimulate your jawbone and prevent facial collapse from occurring in the first place.
