Dental Implants
At NJ Dental Implants Center, dental implants are a highly advanced, reliable solution for replacing missing or severely damaged teeth. Implants are designed to look, feel, and function like natural teeth, offering a permanent and durable restoration option for patients. Whether you are missing a single tooth, several teeth, or require full-mouth restoration, dental implants can help restore your smile and improve your quality of life.
What Are Dental Implants?
Dental implants are titanium posts or screws that are surgically placed into the jawbone to replace the roots of missing teeth. Once the implant fuses with the bone in a process called osseointegration, it provides a secure base for attaching a replacement tooth, bridge, or denture. Dental implants are considered the most effective long-term solution for tooth replacement due to their durability, natural appearance, and functionality.

The Dental Implant Process at NJ Dental Implants Center
1- Initial Consultation and Assessment: The process begins with a thorough examination and consultation with one of our experienced implant specialists. This includes an assessment of your overall oral health, digital X-rays or 3D imaging, and a discussion of your goals and expectations. If necessary, the dentist may recommend additional treatments like bone grafting or gum therapy to ensure that your jaw is in the best possible condition for implants.
2- Implant Placement Surgery: Once you're deemed a suitable candidate for implants, the next step is the surgical placement of the implant posts into your jawbone. This procedure is typically performed under local anesthesia, and sedation options are available for patients who experience dental anxiety. The implant posts are carefully placed into the jawbone, and the gum tissue is stitched around them. Over the next few months, the implant will integrate with the bone in a process called osseointegration.
3- Healing and Osseointegration: During the healing period (usually 3 to 6 months), the implant posts fuse with the jawbone, forming a stable and permanent foundation for your new teeth. While healing, you may wear a temporary restoration, ensuring that you can still smile and function normally during the recovery phase.
4- Abutment Placement: Once the implant has fully integrated with the bone, the next step is the placement of the abutment, a small connector piece that attaches the implant to the replacement tooth. The abutment is usually placed during a minor procedure that can be performed under local anesthesia.
5- Restoration (Crown, Bridge, or Denture): After the abutment is placed, your dentist will take impressions of your mouth to create a custom restoration, whether it's a single crown, implant-supported bridge, or implant-supported dentures. These restorations are carefully crafted to match the color, size, and shape of your natural teeth, ensuring a seamless and aesthetic result.
6- Final Placement and Adjustment: Once your custom restoration is ready, it is securely attached to the abutment. The team will make any necessary adjustments to ensure your new teeth fit comfortably and function properly. After placement, you can enjoy a fully restored smile that looks, feels, and functions like your natural teeth.
Benefits of Dental Implants at NJ Dental Implants Center
1- Durability and Longevity: Dental implants are designed to last a lifetime with proper care. Unlike traditional bridges or dentures, which may need to be replaced after a few years, implants provide a permanent solution, saving you time and money in the long run.
2- Natural Look and Feel: Implants are custom-made to blend seamlessly with your natural teeth, offering a highly aesthetic result. They also function just like real teeth, allowing you to eat, speak, and smile without worry.
3-Preservation of Bone Health: When you lose a tooth, the underlying bone can begin to deteriorate. Dental implants help preserve the bone structure by stimulating the jawbone in the same way that natural tooth roots do. This prevents bone loss and helps maintain the overall shape of your face.
4- Improved Functionality: Dental implants restore full chewing and speaking ability, allowing you to enjoy your favorite foods without worrying about slipping or discomfort, which is common with dentures.
5- No Impact on Surrounding Teeth: Unlike bridges, which require the reshaping of adjacent teeth, dental implants do not affect neighboring teeth. This helps maintain the integrity of your natural teeth and supports overall oral health.
6- Enhanced Confidence: With dental implants, you can smile confidently again, knowing that your teeth are secure and natural-looking. This can significantly improve your self-esteem and quality of life.
Who is a Good Candidate for Dental Implants?
The ideal candidates for dental implants are those who:
- Are in good overall health
- Have sufficient bone density in the jaw to support the implants (or are willing to undergo bone grafting if necessary)
- Have healthy gums free of periodontal disease
- Are non-smokers or willing to quit smoking to improve healing and implant success
- Are committed to good oral hygiene practices and regular dental checkups
Even if you have been told you are not a candidate for implants in the past, advances in implant dentistry and bone regeneration techniques (such as bone grafting or sinus lifts) may allow you to be a candidate for dental implants today.
