Dental Implants

If missing teeth are causing you to miss out on culinary indulgences and lowering your self-esteem, a dental implant is the answer to your pain and sorrow. At Monarch Dental Clinic, Dr. Mihir Patel, our implantologist, can fill the gap in your life (and your teeth) by replacing them with high-quality dental implants, backed by cutting-edge technology and the extensive experience of our dentists.

Over the last few years, dental implants have been very successful in changing the face of dentistry. Our dentists will analyze your unique requirements, and accordingly recommend the right implants. These high-quality implants are made of titanium, one of the most biocompatible materials available today.

You may be advised a dental implant in the following scenarios, if all the prerequisites are met:

Common Causes of Tooth Loss

We are all exposed to habits that result in higher stress on our teeth, impacting oral health in the long run. With the ever-increasing changes in our lifestyles, dental issues have become quite common. The hectic lives we lead often result in initial symptoms being ignored, until they become hindrances, at which point they need expert treatment.

Prerequisites for Dental Implants

Implants are long-lasting, permanent solutions for complications which are beyond the point of restoration. These implants are constructed of titanium and anchored to an artificial tooth.

Our specialist team comprises of highly-experienced dentists who have undergone special training and operate in well-equipped environs, to ensure your implants look and feel just like your original teeth.

Pre-Procedure

The treatment typically begins with a consultation with one of our dentists, who will discuss your medical history, current oral health and any medication you may be on. Based on the consultation, we will suggest a treatment plan that best fits your unique needs.

During the procedure

Once a treatment plan has been fixed, the dentist will place the implant in a single sitting, but it would require a period of osseointegration (the anchoring of your dental implant to the jawbone). Within as little as three to six months, once the implant is completely healed, a simple follow-up is required to complete the procedure by placing a crown restoration.

Post-Procedure

Our specialized team carefully manages tissue, to minimize any discomfort you may feel during or after the procedure. The dentist will typically prescribe anti-inflammatory medication and an anti-bacterial mouth rinse to aid the healing process. Every situation is unique, so consult our dentists on post-procedural care and read our Implants After Care Form carefully.

Limitations of Dental Implants

Though they’re few, there are certain limitation and specific cases where implants might not be feasible, like:
