Introduction

Missing teeth can affect both your confidence and oral health. At Arora Dental, we specialize in dental implant solutions that restore function, aesthetics, and durability. Led by Dr. Aman Arora, our advanced implant procedures provide a long-lasting and natural-looking solution for tooth loss. In this guide, we’ll explore everything you need to know about dental implants, including their benefits, procedure, and maintenance.

What Are Dental Implants?

Dental implants are artificial tooth roots made of titanium, surgically placed into the jawbone to support replacement teeth. They act as a strong foundation for crowns, bridges, or dentures, providing a permanent alternative to missing teeth.

Types of Dental Implants

  1. Single Tooth Implants – Ideal for replacing a single missing tooth.

  2. Multiple Teeth Implants – Used for replacing multiple missing teeth with implant-supported bridges.

  3. Full-Mouth Implants – Complete arch replacement with implant-supported dentures.

  4. Immediate Load Implants – Also known as “same-day implants,” allowing placement of a temporary tooth immediately after the implant.

  5. Mini Implants – Smaller implants for cases where traditional implants aren’t suitable due to bone loss.

Benefits of Dental Implants

✅ Natural Look & Feel – Matches your real teeth for a seamless appearance. ✅ Long-Lasting Durability – With proper care, implants can last a lifetime. ✅ Improved Oral Health – Prevents bone loss and maintains facial structure. ✅ Better Chewing Ability – Functions like natural teeth for easier eating. ✅ Preserves Adjacent Teeth – Unlike bridges, implants don’t require altering neighboring teeth. ✅ Boosts Confidence – Restores a complete, beautiful smile.

The Dental Implant Procedure

The process involves multiple steps, ensuring precision and long-term success.

1. Initial Consultation & Evaluation

  • Dr. Aman Arora examines your oral health and bone density.

  • X-rays and 3D scans determine implant placement.

  • A personalized treatment plan is created.

2. Implant Placement Surgery

  • A small incision is made in the gum, and the titanium post is inserted into the jawbone.

  • The area is stitched, and the healing process (osseointegration) begins, which takes 3-6 months.

3. Abutment Placement

  • Once the implant fuses with the bone, an abutment (connector) is attached.

  • This serves as the base for the replacement tooth.

4. Crown Placement

  • A custom-made dental crown is placed over the abutment.

  • The crown is shaped and shaded to match natural teeth.

Aftercare & Maintenance of Dental Implants

To ensure longevity, proper care is essential:

  • Brush & Floss Daily – Maintain oral hygiene to prevent infections.

  • Regular Dental Check-ups – Visit Arora Dental every 6 months.

  • Avoid Hard Foods – Prevent excessive pressure on implants.

  • Quit Smoking – Smoking can slow healing and affect implant success.

2. How long do dental implants last?
With proper care, implants can last a lifetime, though crowns may need replacement after 10-15 years.

3. Can anyone get dental implants?
Most adults with good oral health are candidates, but patients with bone loss may need bone grafting before implant placement.

4. How much do dental implants cost?
Costs vary depending on the number of implants and additional procedures required. At Arora Dental, we offer affordable and customized plans.
