Multiple Dental Implants

Missing multiple teeth can significantly impact oral health, confidence, and overall quality of life. Fortunately, multiple dental implants have emerged as a transformative solution, providing a permanent and natural-looking way to replace multiple missing teeth. At Smiles by Design, multiple dental implants are prosthetic replacements for several missing teeth. These implants offer a durable and functional solution that mimics the appearance and performance of natural teeth. The procedure involves the placement of multiple implant posts, each supporting individual replacement teeth or bridges, depending on the patient's specific needs.

The Multiple Dental Implant Procedure

The process begins with a comprehensive consultation with our experienced implant dentist in Livermore, CA. Your oral health will be assessed, and a personalized treatment plan will be created based on your unique needs. During the implant placement surgery phase, the implant posts are surgically inserted into the jawbone. Each implant serves as an artificial tooth root, and the number of implants depends on the extent of tooth loss. After implant placement, a healing period is necessary for osseointegration, where the implant posts fuse with the jawbone, providing stability.

Preservation of Jawbone

When teeth are lost, the jawbone in those areas can deteriorate over time due to a lack of stimulation. Multiple dental implants address this concern by acting as artificial tooth roots. The implant posts stimulate the jawbone, preventing bone loss and helping to maintain facial structure. This preservation of bone structure is not only aesthetically pleasing but also essential for overall oral health.

Improved Oral Health

Multiple dental implants are easy to clean and maintain, improving oral health. They can be cared for just like natural teeth, with regular brushing and flossing. By preventing gum disease and cavities around the implant site, these implants help maintain oral health.
