FAQs
Dental implants are titanium or ceramic posts that are surgically placed into the jawbone to act as a sturdy anchor for replacement teeth. They provide the best long-term solution for missing teeth and are designed to blend seamlessly with your natural teeth.
With proper care and maintenance, dental implants can last several decades. It’s essential to practice good oral hygiene and attend regular dental check-ups to ensure their longevity.
Most patients return to work later that day or the following. Local anesthesia is used during the surgery, and pain can typically be managed with over-the-counter pain relievers afterward.
Ideal candidates for dental implants have good oral health, including healthy gums and adequate bone to support the implant. However, the best way to determine your eligibility is through a consultation at Artisan Dental in Burke, VA or Chevy Chase, MD.
Dental implants should be treated like natural teeth. This includes brushing, flossing, and regular dental check-ups. With proper care, they can remain in top condition for years.
The cost of dental implants varies based on several factors, including the number of implants needed and any additional procedures required. We recommend scheduling a complimentary consultation at Artisan Dental for a personalized estimate.
While dentures and bridges are effective tooth replacement options, dental implants offer several advantages, such as improved stability, preservation of jawbone health, easier to clean and a more natural feel and appearance.
While the implants may take several months to fully integrate with the jawbone, most patients can return to their regular activities within a day or two after the procedure.
If you’re considering dental implants, the first step is to schedule a complimentary consultation at Artisan Dental. Our team will evaluate your oral health, discuss your goals, and recommend the best treatment plan for you.
