Dental implants offer a durable and permanent solution for replacing missing teeth, providing a foundation for replacement teeth that look, feel, and function like natural teeth.
Dr. Ahmed Farid, with his extensive experience in implant dentistry, offers state-of-the-art dental implant solutions designed to restore not only the aesthetics of your smile but also your oral health and functionality.
What are Dental Implants?
Dental implants are titanium posts that are surgically placed into the jawbone beneath the gum line.
Once in place, they allow Dr. Farid to mount replacement teeth onto them.
Because implants fuse to your jawbone, they provide stable support for artificial teeth, bridges, or dentures.
Benefits of Dental Implants
- Natural Look and Feel: Implants are designed to look and feel like your own teeth, enhancing both your smile and your chewing ability.
- Durability: With proper care, implants are very durable and can last many years, often a lifetime.
- Improved Oral Health: Unlike tooth-supported bridges, dental implants do not require reducing other teeth, preserving more of your natural tooth structure.
The Dental Implant Procedure
- Consultation and Planning: An initial examination includes X-rays and discussions about your dental history and the best implant option for you.
- Surgical Placement: The implant post is placed into the jawbone, requiring a period of healing that can last several months.
- Abutment and Crown Placement: Once the implant has bonded with the jawbone, a small connector post, called an abutment, is attached to the post to securely hold the new tooth. The replacement tooth, or crown, is then attached to the abutment.
What to Expect After the Procedure
After the dental implant procedure, patients may experience some swelling and discomfort, which typically subsides within a few days.
Dr. Farid provides comprehensive aftercare instructions to ensure a smooth recovery and optimal results.
