3D Guided Dental Implants
A dental implant is the gold standard in tooth replacement. Patients with one or more missing teeth can experience a shifting of teeth, loss in chewing capacity and esthetic challenges. While there is more than one option for tooth replacement, a dental implant is often the best solution for patients.
​
In our Mason, Ohio office we utilize 3D guided surgery to place dental implants. While it may sound straight forward to place a dental implant, it is a technique sensitive procedure. The mouth has many vital structures including the sinus cavity, nerves and blood vessels. The success of a dental implant relies on the implant being placed in ideal parameters, down to the millimeter. You can feel confident we are planning your surgery to optimize success.
​
The dental implant procedure involves:
1. Numbing the area
2. Preparing the site for placement
3. Inserting the implant
4. Post operative radiograph to confirm position
​
The procedure takes approximately 30 minutes, but the success relies on 3-4 months of healing. It is a comparable experience to breaking a bone, where use of the extremity is not recommend until the bone is healed. In the healing process a small cap keeps the implant safe and out of chewing function.
​
Once your implant is healed, the abutment is placed inside of the implant where a custom crown is fabricated restoring the site to full function and health.
