If you are seeking a restorative method for missing teeth, look no further than dental implants. These advanced dental implements provide patients their best chances of having a full smile again. The process to have implant posts introduced and matched with new teeth prosthetics is more involved than other dental procedures, requiring an expert hand. Patients can all but guarantee their success by having a specialist coordinate the placement step of this advanced treatment. Periodontal specialists like Dr. George V. Duello have a unique skillset and a wealth of experience to support your renewed smile.
Planning your Treatment
The initial diagnosis of your smile’s needs is crucial to ensure successful treatment. Whether receiving referrals or direct patients, implant specialists provide an in-depth examination to specifically determine the best positioning for implant posts, how many to place, and the right materials to use. They will also determine your current oral health standing and whether or not you may require pre-treatment, such as bone grafting or periodontal care. With a trained eye supervising the treatment planning part of dental implant placement, patients have all that they need to have a full set of teeth again.
Expert Placement
After oral health is secured and any necessary grafting treatments are complete, patients can undergo the placement surgery. Many general dentists offer this surgery to make this procedure more convenient for patients, but they may not have specific experience to achieve success. Periodontists understand the jaw and its supporting tissues, and they have received dedicated training to place implants. Their knowledge and practice will help patients avoid accidents and ensure their implants are introduced properly. This also extends to implant maintenance, which will safeguard your smile from prosthetic failure over time.
Building a Foundation for Success
Ultimately, specialists support your general dentist in caring for your smile. Working as a team, these dental care professionals help your smile last a lifetime. Dental implant treatment rebuilds dental function and aesthetics but requires skilled hands to achieve full success. After the placement surgery is complete and the implants have fused to the bone, patients will visit their general dentist for the final restorations, including crowns, bridges, and dentures.
