Transform Your Smile in One-Session!
The Ideal Replacement For A Missing Tooth
A single-tooth implant is a cutting-edge dental procedure designed to replace a single missing tooth. It involves surgically placing a titanium post into the jawbone, mimicking the root of a natural tooth. This provides a strong foundation for attaching a lifelike prosthetic tooth, i.e., a dental crown or bridge, resulting in a restoration that looks, feels, and functions like a natural tooth. Single-tooth implants also maintain oral health by preserving the jawbone and preventing adjacent teeth from shifting.
Reasons For A Single Tooth Implant:
Sometimes it’s as simple as replacing one tooth to recover a beautiful smile. A tooth implant in San Diego is the solution for the following:
- Replace a missing tooth
- Restore natural smile and appearance
- Prevent bone loss in the jaw
- Maintain proper bite and alignment
- Avoid shifting adjacent teeth
- Regain full chewing and speaking abilities
- Long-lasting and durable solution
How A Single Tooth Implant Works
A single-tooth implant procedure is a meticulous surgical process to replicate the natural tooth structure. Initially, a titanium implant is inserted into the alveolar bone to replace the missing tooth root. Titanium is a biocompatible material with exceptional affinity to bone tissue, so it promotes osseointegration—the fusion of bone cells with the implant surface. As healing progresses over several months, the implant becomes firmly anchored into the jawbone.
Following osseointegration, an abutment is attached to the implant, serving as a connector between the implant and the final prosthetic crown. The crown, fabricated to match adjacent teeth in form and function, is attached to the abutment. The crown restores the aesthetics and functionality of your natural tooth. Furthermore, a tooth implant in San Diego also preserves the underlying jawbone and prevents the adjacent teeth from shifting out of place.
Benefits of A Single Tooth Implant:
- Natural and aesthetic appearance
- Preserves jawbone integrity
- It prevents neighboring teeth from shifting
- Restores proper chewing and speaking functions
- Designed to last a lifetime with proper care
- Enhances overall oral health
- Minimal impact on surrounding teeth compared to bridges
- Replace your missing tooth in one session
- No risk of the implants slipping or sliding out
- Improved self-confidence and quality of life
We Offer A Same-Day Tooth Implant
Experience the convenience of a same-day tooth implant. Our advanced techniques allow for immediate implant placement following tooth extraction. During a single appointment, Dr. Mirkhan removes the compromised tooth, places the implant in the prepared socket, and attaches a temporary crown. You can leave the clinic with a completely restored and natural tooth. After a few months, once osseointegration is complete, we can attach the final crown. You don’t ever have to go without a tooth for even a single day. A tooth implant in San Diego is also a solution if you suddenly lose a tooth through any sort of accident and want to remedy it right away.
Recovery & Aftercare
Following a single tooth implant procedure, proper recovery and aftercare are crucial for optimal results. Mild discomfort, swelling, and bruising may occur initially, but they typically subside within a few days. Adhering to prescribed pain medications, maintaining a soft diet, and practicing meticulous oral hygiene are recommended. Please follow the oral surgeon’s aftercare guidelines and brush and floss carefully around the implant. After a few days, you can resume your normal diet and activities.
If you require more than a single-tooth implant, we also offer all-on-four dental implants and multiple dental implants, so that you are fully satisfied with your smile.
