Dental Implants
If you need to replace one or more teeth, you could choose a traditional restoration, or you could choose an implant-based option instead. Dental implants have a structure that mimics nature's own design, with a crown on top and a root underneath. Because of this structure, patients who choose dental implants end up enjoying more stable and lifelike results.
The Treatment Process
A full implant procedure is completed over the course of a few phases. The first of these is the placement phase. In the placement phase, a skilled oral surgeon will carefully insert your implant(s) in your jaw during a routine procedure.
Once your implant(s) has been placed by a skilled surgeon, a process known as osseointegration will occur. During osseointegration, your implant(s) and your jawbone will form a natural bond with each other. This bond is what accounts for the lifelike results that are possible with implant-supported restorations.
After the osseointegration process is complete, you can return to our Fort Worth office for the restoration phase (you'll visit a specialist for the placement phase). The restoration phase will culminate in the attachment of your custom-made restoration.
A Versatile Treatment Option
Dental implants can be paired with a variety of restorations, allowing patients with different needs to achieve great results. Whether you need to replace a single tooth with a crown or multiple teeth with a bridge or denture, dental implants can help.
Are Dental Implants Right for Me?
If you'd like to learn more about dental implants, or you'd like to know if you're a candidate for treatment, please contact our Fort Worth office for an appointment. Dr. Wear would be happy to complete an exam for you and make a treatment recommendation. Not every patient is an ideal candidate for implants because a certain amount of bone is required for the placement procedure. If implants aren't right for you, we would be happy to discuss alternative solutions with you.
