What are dental implants?
Dental Implant is an ideal teeth replacement option because it looks, feels and functions just like natural teeth.
A dental implant is an artificial tooth root, usually using a highly-biocompatible titanium screw, that is anchored into your jaw bone to hold a replacement artificial tooth. The implant is placed into the jaw bone to allow the jaw's living bone cells (osseoblasts) to grow and wrap around the screw in a process called osseointegration. The bone fuses with the screw, creating the most secure and stable fit possible.
The benefits are priceless!
Dental implants are strong and durable. They offer a permanent solution to tooth loss.
- You can smile with confidence because of an improved dental appearance
- You can feel more comfortable in speaking
- You can eat with a more natural bite without pain or discomfort
- You can preserve your healthy adjacent teeth and gum tissue
How is the procedure done?
This procedure is a team effort between you and our dentists. Gan Advanced Osseointegration Center will consult with you to determine where and how your implant(s) should be placed. Depending on your specific condition and the type of implant chosen, a treatment plan and schedule will be tailored to meet your specific needs.
Careful and detailed planning is done to ensure the proper fit for implants. X-rays and CT scans are performed on the teeth and jaw. Anesthesia is administered during insertion of implants.
The amount of time for an implant insertion session will vary depending on the individual bone quality and number of implants to be inserted, including other factors. However, more than one implant can be inserted in a single session. After the implant is inserted, a temporary artificial tooth is attached to the implant. The patient then usually waits for four to six months for the implant to osseointegrate with the jaw bone, afterwards, the permanent artificial tooth will be placed.
GAOC has the expertise and technology!
GAOC performs the most accurate, minimally-invasive surgical procedures with our one-of-a-kind computer-aided 3D imaging program that allows us to plan a patient's procedure with laser-like precision because our dentists can see the exact position and depth of the implants. This system also complements the skill and expertise of GAOC dentists to allow them to preserve vital jaw and face structures like nerves during insertion of implants.
