Dental implants are perhaps the most significant dental innovation of our generation! They are designed to mimic the entire structure of our natural teeth, With the highest success rate of all tooth replacement options, implants are the best long-term solution for replacing missing teeth. When properly placed and cared for, dental implants can last a lifetime.

How Do Teeth Implants Look and Feel Natural?

A complete dental implant consists of a small titanium post (the implant), an abutment, and a crown. The implant serves as an artificial tooth root. Your natural bone actually fuses with the implant, providing a sturdy base and preventing bone loss that would otherwise occur in the absence of a tooth. The abutment (the connector between the implant and the crown) is placed on top of the implant to hold and support the custom-designed crown. Indistinguishable from your natural teeth in feel, fit, function, and appearance, implants are a game-changer for many people.

The Dental Implants Procedure

Dental implant surgery is usually performed in stages over the course of several months, though at Blooming Dental we can sometimes provide same-day implants! The traditional method of implant surgery consists of several stages, as follows:

  • Step 1 – The dentist places the implant post into the jawbone and stitches closed the site where the implant was placed.
  • Step 2 – The patient goes through a healing period during which the jawbone fuses with the implant; this period usually lasts three to six months.

​Once the healing period is done, the dentist makes an incision to expose the implant and places a healing cap on top of the implant, which helps the surrounding gum tissue to heal.

  • ​Step 3 – After a few weeks, the dentist removes the healing cap and attaches the abutment
  • Step 4 – The dentist makes an impression of your teeth and sends it to the dental lab to create your custom-made crown.

For cases in which structure must be built up to support the implant, additional procedures such as bone grafting or sinus augmentation must be completed before the implant can be placed. At Blooming Dental, we can offer highly advanced regenerative therapy treatments which can greatly quicken the healing time for bone grafting and other related implant surgery procedures.

Same-Day Implants at Blooming Dental

​At Blooming Dental, we can provide one-stage implant procedures! Our team is highly skilled and experienced in implant dentistry, having placed and restored hundreds of dental implants in Cedar Park, Texas.

In most cases, the dentist can perform a tooth extraction and place the implant, abutment, and temporary crown in a single visit. This method reduces treatment time and requires fewer surgical procedures, while also offering better aesthetics and preservation of the bone structure.

Why Should I Choose Dental Implants?

Dental implants may sound scary, but with the latest dental advancements and technology – this procedure is truly the best natural solution for missing teeth. Because the implant gradually fuses to your jaw, they provide added support and a comfortable feel for decades. Dental implants can also help you with the following:

  • Improves comfort while chewing, eating, talking, and smiling
  • Eliminates the need for partial or full dentures
  • Reduces bone loss and gum recession
  • Aids in securing a dental bridge
  • Supports dentures for a sturdier fit
  • Prevents face caving or facial weakness around the jawline
  • Offers a lifelong solution

After consulting with our dentist at Blooming Dental, you will have a good idea about whether or not dental implants are right for you and which options are available.

In some cases, like with a decaying tooth, your dentist may recommend a tooth extraction.
