There are many practical benefits to dental implants. Aside from improving your appearance, it's convenient and comfortable to use because unlike conventional dentures, they don’t require you to remove them when you’re cleaning or brushing. They allow you to enjoy your food without the discomfort associated with regular dentures and to speak confidently without worrying about them moving or get displaced.

If you're considering receiving dental implants, the professionals at Tkatch Stas DDS PA in High Point, NC, is the trusted dental facility in the area. They offer a wide variety of dental services for patients of all ages, from cleanings and cosmetic dentistry to periodontal disease treatment.                             

Below is the step-by-step process for receiving dental implants:

• Dental Health Assessment: Before determining if you need surgery, your dentist will run tests to see if you are, indeed, a good candidate for dental implants. The dentist will evaluate your dental condition and overall health to see if you’re fit to undergo this treatment. The dentist will also discuss the procedure with you, so you know what to expect during and after the surgery.
• Dental Implant Placement: During this procedure, a dental implant made from a titanium rod will be carefully placed where tooth replacement is needed. The material is designed to bond with the gum tissues, forming a strong anchor for the crown while it heals.
• Placement Of Temporary Crown: After your jawbone is healed, your dentist will attach an abutment, a piece of metal, onto the first metal implant. Then, an artificial set of teeth or crown is placed onto the abutment.
• Attachment Of Permanent Crown: The placement of a permanent crown will be the last stage of the procedure. Your dentist will take a mold of your bite and fashion a dental crown that suits your requirements. After your jawbone has grown around the metal implant and built a strong anchor, your permanent crown will be attached gently to the abutment.

The entire procedure takes about two to nine months, but the implant can last a lifetime with proper care. Are you ready to get dental implants? Call the professionals at Tkatch Stas DDS PA at (336) 889-9916. For more details, visit the website.
