Dental Implant Advancements
by: Anonymous

New dental technology has improved the dental implant procedures, and dentists now have the process down to a science! Patients no longer have to wait a few months to replace their missing teeth - now the dental implant, post and dental crown can be set in the same visit. With immediate placement of dental implants, you don't need to live with an ugly gap between your teeth or wear a temporary cap while you wait for the dental implants to heal. With single-visit dental implants becoming more successful, more and more patients are inquiring about this new procedure.

Using an ICAT Machine, the dentist prepares your dental implant surgery through 3-D imaging. Dentists plan the one-hour procedure through a virtual mock-up of your mouth, which eliminates cutting through the gums to find the right spot in the bone. This, in turn, means less pain and healing time for the patient, and there's no need for a follow-up visit to complete the treatment! Your prosthetic tooth is made in a lab, During the planning stages, and will be ready in time for your dental implant surgery. This new procedure bypasses the osseointregration period in which the implant fuses to the bone. Although the bone still needs to heal, it can do so with the dental crown attached to the implant, and you can go on with your life as usual!
