Replacing Nature with Predictable, Functional, and Real-looking Dental Implants
Tooth loss doesn’t just take away your smile—it makes the best parts of your life feel incomplete. After losing teeth, you may feel embarrassed to show your smile, even in your happiest moments. Moreover, missing teeth means you no longer enjoy your favorite foods because of diminished chewing and biting ability.
But all is not lost. Dental implants in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, can make your smile and life complete again. Biggio Dental Care offers multiple dental implant options to restore what’s been taken from you by tooth loss. Start your new smile today by scheduling an appointment with our dentist, Dr. Chad Biggio.
What is a dental implant?
A dental implant is a titanium screw surgically inserted in the jawbone to replace your natural tooth root. The implant post is made from biocompatible material, which fuses with the jawbone to form one biological structure. Dental implants can replace one or all teeth in the mouth.
An implant fixture doesn’t replace your tooth alone. Above the implant post, the dentist attaches an abutment that gives your implant height and links it to the final restoration, which could be a crown, bridge, or denture, depending on the number of teeth lost.
What’s the process of placing an implant (s)?
Dr. Biggio has numerous years of placing dental implants. Over the years, he has refined the process to make your experience seamless and effective. Although we’ve integrated cutting-edge technology into the process, we adopt a personalized approach to ensure you remain confident and comfortable throughout the process.
This is the process you can expect when replacing your tooth with an implant.
- Initial consultation and treatment planning using digital x-rays and 3D scanning
- Extractions and bone grafting, if necessary
- Surgical placement of a titanium post in the jawbone
- Leaving the implant for 4-6 months to heal and fuse with the bone
- Taking digital impressions of your implant
- Attaching an abutment to your implant and then topping off your implant with a custom-made crown
