Dental implants have long been the preferred restorative dental procedure for patients who have undergone a full tooth extraction because they offer a permanent, durable and aesthetically natural-looking solution to fill any gaps in the smile.

How is a Dental Implant Placed?
A dental implant is a metal post that is surgically implanted below your gums. If there is not enough healthy tissue at the tooth extraction site, your dentist may have a specialist take a bone graft from your jaw to give the post enough bone to attach to.

As the post heals over time, it essentially adheres to your jawbone, mimicking the function of tooth roots. Once the metal post is fully healed, we will attach a natural-looking false tooth to the dental implant for a durable, long-lasting finished look.

Depending on the nature of your oral health concerns and what is causing pain or discomfort, a full tooth extraction might be the most effective option for maintaining your dental health. Dental trauma, severe decay, impacted wisdom teeth, deteriorated teeth or extra teeth are all common dental issues that may require this type of treatment.

What Happens When My Tooth is Pulled?
First, your dentist will assess the damage on your tooth visually and with x-rays, ruling out every avenue for restoration before determining that a full tooth extraction is the best option for your health and budget.

After your tooth extraction, your dentist will review various restoration treatments to fill in the gap with an aesthetic and functional appliance such as a dental implant, dental bridge, or dentures.
