Dental implants are an ideal option for missing teeth replacement

Dental implants are artificial tooth roots surgically placed in your jaw to support a replacement tooth. This replacement tooth is designed to look and feel like your natural tooth, restore the aesthetic appearance of your smile, provide optimal functionality, and reduce your risk of developing other oral health issues. Following the placement of the titanium post in your jawbone, our qualified technicians will design a custom-made crown that is milled from polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) using computer images and impressions of your bite and designed to color-match your remaining natural teeth, resulting in a seamlessly integrated smile and a return to the desired aesthetic and functionality of your natural bite.

At Coastal Jaw Surgery, every patient who walks through our door will receive VIP Treatment delivered by dedicated professionals who are leaders in their fields and ready to provide you with personalized care using the most cutting-edge dental technology available. For over three decades, we have proudly provided thousands of patients in the Tampa Bay area with dental implant and oral surgery services, including oral surgery, Same Day Teeth®, and periodontal services.

Steps Involved in the Dental Implant Process

Our office offers several treatment options for dental implants, including traditional dental implants, All-on-4, All-on-6, implant-supported dentures, implant-retained dentures, zygomatic implants, subperiosteal implants and Same Day Teeth®. We are happy to provide a free consultation to determine which implant treatment option is right for you.

Once the appropriate dental implant has been determined, it will be necessary to address any preexisting decay and periodontal disease. It may also be necessary to perform a dental bone graft or sinus lift if there is not enough bone to support the implant. Once these issues have been addressed, the dental implant process will begin with a 3D cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) scan, which will provide us with 3D images of your bone, nerve pathways, soft tissues, and teeth, and allows us to determine optimal placement of your implant using the best digital assessment software and related state-of-the-art technology to ensure that your treatment is truly customized. Most service providers, especially corporate-based, treat everyone the same way with the one-size-fits-all mentality. You are as unique as your fingerprint and as a result, we draw from a variety of digital-based, precision solutions to give you a beautiful natural smile and restore your ability to eat and chew foods that you love. Our unique approach not only includes a comprehensive treatment plan for each of our patients, but also a thorough explanation and as importantly ongoing follow-up care.’

Prior to placing the implant, a local anesthetic is administered along with dental sedation. Once you are sufficiently numbed, our dental implant surgeon will surgically place the titanium implant or implants into your jawbone. Once the dental implant post is properly placed, it will take several months for your jawbone to fuse around the posts through a process called osseointegration, unless you are having Same Day Teeth®, in which case the implants and new teeth will be placed on the same day. Once the osseointegration process is complete and the posts are sufficiently fused, we will place the abutment on top of your gumline and then attach the crown, which has been designed in our labs to create a seamlessly integrated smile that restores the aesthetic appearance and functionality of your natural bite.

Aftercare Instructions for Dental Implants

Following dental implant placement, post-procedural pain, swelling, and complications can be minimized or avoided if the following instructions are closely followed.

  • Avoid disturbing the surgical area
  • Post-procedural pain typically develops once the anesthetic wears off. Once you begin to feel discomfort or pain, take Over the Counter (OTC) or prescription medication as directed.
  • Place ice packs on the area where surgery occurred for twenty minutes at a time to control swelling.
  • You may experience tooth sensitivity to cold/hot temperatures, but this should go away as the healing process progresses.
  • Follow a soft food diet for approximately two weeks. As the healing progresses, you can begin to slowly reintroduce harder foods.
  • Avoid tobacco products and alcohol, as both can slow the healing process
  • Avoid spitting, rinsing, or using a straw for the first 24 hours minimum.
  • If possible, limit intense physical activity for the first three days, but most importantly following surgery.

In addition to following these aftercare instructions, we strongly encourage our patients to follow a six-month ongoing maintenance program, which includes regular professional cleanings of your teeth and allows us to monitor your dental implant and overall oral health. By closely following aftercare instructions, scheduling regular maintenance, and continuing to follow good daily oral hygiene habits, you should enjoy a fast recovery that is free of complications, and continue to enjoy a bright, healthy smile.
