The ideal candidate for implants is a non-smoker who has good oral health, including a sufficient amount of bone in the jaw, and healthy gums with no sign of gum disease.
What to Expect during a Dental Implant Procedure
The dental implant will be placed into your jawbone in order to hold the new tooth or teeth in place. The procedure is usually done under local anesthesia, but you may be given general anesthesia if you are having multiple implants done. The surgery itself is relatively short, and you can expect to be in and out of the dental office within a few hours. Recovery from the procedure can take anywhere from a few days to a few weeks, and you may experience some bruising, swelling, and soreness during this time. However, most patients report that the healing process is fairly comfortable and that they are able to return to their normal activities within a week or so. Once your dental implant has healed, you can enjoy all the benefits of having a new tooth, including improved chewing function and enhanced aesthetics.
Our Umbrella of
Dental Implant Treatments
Smile….it raises your face value!
Implant Dentistry
Dental implants are a safe and effective way to replace missing teeth and have many benefits over other tooth replacement options.
Implant Supported Dentures
An implant-supported denture is a type of denture that is supported by dental implants.
Mini Dental Implants
Mini implants are a type of dental implant that is smaller in diameter than a traditional dental implant. They are typically used to support dentures or bridges in the lower jaw.
Bone Grafts
A bone graft is a procedure that is used to place new bone material in the jawbone. This is often necessary when there is not enough existing bone to support an implant.
Extractions
Extractions are typically performed when a tooth is too damaged to be repaired.
Sinus Lifts
A sinus lift is a procedure that is used to place new bone material in the jawbone. This is often necessary when there is not enough existing bone to support an implant.
Relax…Dental Implant Center of Louisiana Knows Best
Use a soft nylon toothbrush
A soft nylon toothbrush is recommended after getting dental implants because it will not damage the implant or the surrounding teeth. The bristles of a soft nylon toothbrush are also less likely to cause gum irritation.
Avoid abrasive products!
Abrasive products should be avoided after getting dental implants because they can damage the implant or the surrounding teeth. Abrasive products include toothpaste, mouthwash, and floss that contain abrasives.
Floss daily
You should floss daily after getting dental implants to remove plaque and food debris from around the implant. Plaque and food debris can cause infection and inflammation around the implant.
See your dentist every 6 months
You should go to the dentist every 6 months for a cleaning and checkup after getting dental implants. This is to ensure that the implant is healthy and to catch any problems early.
