LAS VEGAS, NV AREA DENTIST OFFERS DENTAL IMPLANTS FOR DENTURE STABILIZATION

Dr. Christopher Lim and the team at Hillside Dental in Las Vegas, NV understand the importance of a fully functional smile. When patients have dentures, they may still be concerned about the appearance of their restorations as well as their function. Dentures can be held in place with natural suction, dental adhesives, or dental implants for improved efficiency.
 

WHY CHOOSE DENTAL IMPLANTS?

Dental implants can help replace one or more teeth using crowns, bridges, or dentures. These titanium posts are surgically placed into the bone of the jaw and act as a tooth root. With dentures, they are made to snap over the dental implants for strength and stability.
 

PROCESS

  • Preparation – preparation is required for the placement of dental implants. This includes x-rays so Dr. Christopher Lim can assess the best area to place the implants for the best results. He will avoid problem areas such as the sinuses which can affect their success.

  • Placement – oral surgery is performed for the placement of the dental implants. Patients are properly anesthetized and sedated during the procedure to ensure comfort and relaxation. A hole is made into the jaw where the implant is placed.

  • Time – over several weeks, the process of osseointegration begins. This is the growth of the bone around the implant to hold it firmly in place.

  • Restoration – the dental implant is then restored using the full dentures. Other ways of restoring a dental implant include the placement of a crown or dental bridge.
