If you’re researching the best way to replace missing teeth, then keep reading. Dental implants are fixed restorations that permanently replace lost teeth to give you complete peace of mind and full function.
There’s no other option that looks or feels as natural! A dental implant replaces the tooth root and holds your custom restoration (crown, denture, etc) in place.
Dental implants offer:
Leave your worries behind because advanced dentistry makes it easy to reclaim your smile. Schedule a dental implants consultation in Lake Stevens, WA to find out if you’re a candidate.
We craft the restoration to suit your tooth shape, size, and color. Your new tooth will fit seamlessly into your smile.
Dental implants are custom-made to replace one tooth or a full set of teeth. We can do as much or as little work as you need.
Your restoration uses durable materials that last for years with proper care. Enjoy peace of mind with high-quality, reliable restorations.
Implants permanently fuse with the jawbone to support your tooth restoration. This creates a healthier smile and stability for your restoration.
You can confidently speak and chew with no slipping or sliding thanks to implant-support dentures and dental implants.
A complete set of teeth can improve bite problems, jaw pain, and health. When you restore your smile, you restore your health, too.
Dental implants are a safe and effective way to replace missing teeth and restore your smile. The procedure is carefully planned to ensure comfort, precision, and long-lasting results. Our experienced dental team makes the implant process smooth and stress-free, guiding you every step of the way from consultation to final restoration.
At your dental implant consultation, our Lake Stevens dentist reviews your goals, teeth, gums, and bite to determine if you’re a candidate. To qualify for this innovative procedure, we’ll ensure you’re in good overall health and have adequate jawbone density to support the implant.
Our modern technology helps us plan your treatment to give you the best possible results. We first numb the area for a pain-free dental implant placement. Then, we insert the medical-grade metal post in place of the tooth root, and give it time to fuse with the jawbone to create a stable base.
Next, we use your mouth impressions to craft your tooth restoration (a crown, bridge, or implant-supported denture). We then place an abutment (connector) onto the implant and attach the final restoration.
Once everything is set, we check for fit and comfort to ensure it looks great and feels comfortable. Enjoy a full smile and complete confidence with dental implants in Lake Stevens, WA.
With proper care and follow-ups, your dental implant will integrate naturally and provide a strong, lasting foundation for your new smile.
Two-stage implants typically require two surgeries to complete the implant process. First, we insert the metal post into the jawbone and close the area for healing with stitches. Then, in the next few months, we create a minor incision to uncover the top of the post and attach your tooth restoration.
One-stage implants usually require fewer surgeries. We secure the post on top of the jawbone and allow the skin to heal without covering it completely. Once the skin heals, our Lake Stevens restorative dentist mounts your new tooth replacement onto the implant.
We always aim to make your dental treatments as comfortable and pain-free as possible. During implant placement, a local anesthetic eliminates pain, and patients often say that implant surgery isn’t any worse than a tooth extraction.
Since dental implants involve invasive surgery, you may experience slight discomfort in the jaw, gums, face, and under the eyes during recovery. This is normal and manageable with prescribed or over-the-counter pain medication.
Dental implants are widely regarded as the longest-lasting tooth replacement compared to traditional dentures and bridges.
On average, a high-quality dental implant may last about 50 years after installation. For most patients, implants last a lifetime.
The actual restoration may wear and tear through the years but a new crown, bridge, or denture is easy to create and install onto the implant. Most restorations typically last 10-15 years on average depending on maintenance and lifestyle choices.
Patients love dental implants because they look and function like natural teeth. Nobody has to know about your dental work because we match your new teeth to your existing smile and appearance.
Additionally, you can eat and chew your favorite foods because implants are fixed, strong, and durable. Say goodbye to slipping or loose dentures with our fixed restoration!
