Start Your New Smile Journey with Our Dental Implants in Southfield MI

As one of the most popular methods for replacing one or multiple missing teeth, dental implants earn their place as a top restorative procedure. With the help of titanium supports that are surgically fused within your jawbone, your implant has a study anchor to keep your false teeth in place and properly support the teeth surrounding them. While dentures are a convenient option for replacing multiple missing teeth, security and structure are key components when it comes to your smile and our dental implants in Southfield MI are created and perfectly fitted for you.

 

Advantages of Dental Implants

• Implants are extremely natural looking, created and adjusted to look seemless alongside your natural teeth

• With the titanium support fused to your jaw, the implants are very stable and comfortable, compared to traditional dentures that can shift and morph uncomfortably in your mouth

• With proper care, both at home and keeping up with your routine visits to Restoration Dental, implants have the chance to last a lifetime

 

Disadvantages of Dental Implants

• The process of getting dental implants is time-consuming, resulting in multiple visits to ensure that your mouth is properly healing and recovering

• Surgery is a must, which includes risks and complications, all which will be discussed with you during your consultation

• The recovery process is considered long, ranging anywhere from three to 18 months

 

Types of Dental Implants

There are several different types of implants available and during your consultation with Dr. Gray, you'll sit down and thoroughly discuss which of our dental implants in Southfield is best for you and your smile. No two patients are the same, so no two smiles will be treated the same. One type of dental implant may be best for some, but not for you, which is why we want to give you more information about the choices.

 

• Root Form Implants: This is the most common type of dental implant, where the titanium post is shaped similarly to the root of your tooth. It's surgically placed alongside your natural tooth roots within your gums, acting just the same.

 

• Plate Form Implants: This implant type has a flat and long shape, which is typically better suited for patients with a narrow jawbone. We'll able to show you the comparisons with the help of x-rays and other example photos.

 

• Subperiosteal Implants: In the cases where there is not enough bone width or height for the root or plate form implants, you may be prescribed a subperiosteal implant. This type of implant sits on top of the bone within your jaw, but underneath the gums to still provide stability.
