Replacing Missing Teeth With Dental Implants

Dental implants in NYC offer patients a permanent solution to missing teeth. At Madison Avenue Oral Surgery & Implant Center, we specialize in different types of dental implants that are unique and customizable to your individual needs. Utilizing some of the most advanced technology and surgical techniques, we can help patients restore a beautiful smile that is natural-looking and long-lasting. Patients who are missing one or more teeth often struggle with smiling in public and for photos, loss of jawbone density, difficulty talking and chewing, and bite irregularities. At Madison Avenue Oral Surgery & Implant Center in NYC, we offer dental implants to replace one or multiple missing teeth.

What Are Dental Implants?

A dental implant is defined as a small post or screw that is surgically inserted in the gumline and bone of the jaw to replace a lost tooth. Typically made of titanium, dental implants are designed to look, feel, and function similarly to natural teeth. Once the dental implant itself, or the post, is placed, it can then be topped with an abutment and a crown, which resembles the tooth. Only the crown will be visible when the patient talks, smiles, eats, etc. Dental implants support jawbone density by filling in the gaps caused by missing teeth and providing secure anchors for the placement of an artificial tooth or set of artificial teeth.

How Do Dental Implants Work?

Made from the strongest titanium, dental implants are surgically placed in the jawbone where teeth are missing or following the of a tooth/teeth. Following dental implant placement, the implants will gradually bond with the jawbone, creating a strong and stable foundation for your new teeth. Dental implants work by artificially simulating the structure of a real, natural tooth. By doing so, dental implants allow for increased longevity, natural-looking results, and decreased jawbone loss.

Dental implants are made of 3 parts – the post, abutment, and crown. The post acts as the root of the tooth and is available in different sizes depending on the tooth being replaced and the amount of jawbone density the patient has. For patients with low jawbone density, mini dental implants (short implants) or zygomatic implants (longer implants that bond to the cheekbone) may be utilized. Once the implant has fully integrated with the jawbone and the surrounding gum tissue has healed, a dental abutment is placed onto the implant. The abutment acts as a connector between the implant and your dental crown. The dental crown is cemented or screwed into the abutment, completing your smile restoration

What Are The Benefits
Of Dental Implants?

Dental implant surgery in NYC offers a wide variety of both cosmetic and functional benefits for patients. Dental implants are a highly durable option for the replacement of one of multiple teeth. Because the post is implanted into the jaw, dental implants won’t slip or dislodge like dentures or dental bridges.

With tooth loss comes the loss of jawbone density. When jawbone density is lost, patients may suffer from pain while chewing and biting, changes in facial appearance, difficulty speaking, and loosening of the surrounding natural teeth. When a tooth is lost and not replaced, the body no longer thinks it needs the bone that once held that tooth in place, leading to bone reabsorption. Dental implants fill the gap, preventing loss of jawbone density.

Dental implants closely resemble the structure of natural teeth. As a result, they function very similarly as well. After receiving dental implants, patients report their teeth not only looking natural, but feeling natural, too. Because dental implants are designed to artificially recreate the root of the tooth, patients can enjoy eating with implants like they are natural teeth.

Who Is The Ideal Candidate For
Dental Implant Surgery?

If you are missing one or multiple teeth, have damaged or decayed teeth that need to be removed, or are looking to replace dentures or bridges, dental implants may be right for you. During your consultation for dental implants in NYC, Dr. Datson and his oral surgery team will help determine if you are an ideal candidate. The ideal candidate for dental implant surgery is in good general health and a non-smoker. Additionally, it’s important that patients have good jawbone density in order to be a candidate for dental implants.

What Types Of Dental Implants
Are Available?

There are several dental implant options available, including single dental implants, All‐on‐4 dental implants, All‐on‐6 dental implants, All‐on‐X dental implants, zirconia dental implants, and zygomatic dental implants. These implants are designed to address specific needs and conditions. The best type of dental implants for you will be based on your jawbone density, oral health, and goals. During your consultation for dental implant surgery at our NYC oral surgery office, we will discuss your dental implant options in depth and help decide which type of dental implants are right for you.

TYPES OF DENTAL IMPLANTS
ALL-ON-4
Places four dental implants per arch (upper or lower jaw). Minimal downtime and beneficial for patients with low jawbone density.
ALL-ON-6
Utilizes six dental implants per arch, offering additional support and stability compared to the All-on-4 technique.
ALL-ON-X
Refers to any technique that involves placing a variable number of implants per arch, where "X" represents the number of implants used.
ZIRCONIA
Ceramic dental implants that closely resemble the natural tooth color. Ideal for the front areas of the mouth where the implant may be more visible or for patients with sensitive gums.
ZYGOMATIC
Are anchored into the cheekbone rather than the jawbone and are used for patients with severe jawbone loss.

What Should I Expect During
Dental Implant Surgery In NYC?

The details of your dental implant surgery will vary based on the best type of dental implants for you. It is important to remember that every treatment plan is formulated individually based on the needs of each patient. However, the dental implant procedure is typically completed in three steps. First, the implant is placed, then the abutment, then finally the crown. Typically, these three steps are performed during at least two visits to the office.

During the first step in dental implant surgery, Dr. Datson will remove any damaged or broken teeth to make room for the implants to be placed. Then, he will insert the implant into the jawbone and gumline. An abutment will then be placed on your dental implant, which will secure a temporary dental crown to your dental implant. About 3-5 months later, patients be fitted for their permanent crown. Spacing these steps apart allows for time for the dental implant and jawbone to undergo the process of osseointegration, enabling the dental screw to securely bond with your jawbone and form a stable base for your permanent dental crown.

What Should I Expect After
Dental Implant Surgery In NYC?

After undergoing the initial phase of dental implant surgery in NYC, patients experience mild-to-moderate pain, swelling, and bruising. However, these symptoms are normal and should subside in the days following the procedure. Patients may be limited to soft foods following the first step of their dental implant procedure. The rate at which you heal and how many implants you had placed will play a role the recovery. Before returning home, you will be provided detailed instructions for recovery. In order to minimize the recovery period, patients should follow these instructions with care. Once your implants are healed and your crown is placed, you can expect a beautifully restored, natural-looking smile that looks, feels, and functions like real teeth. If you have any questions throughout your recovery, you are encouraged to call our office. Our staff is on hand to answer any questions you may have during this time.
