Tooth loss can compromise the form and function of your smile. In these cases, dental implants provide total root-to-crown restoration, restoring your oral health and your sense of self-confidence. Ridge Oral Surgery is pleased to provide full-scope implant care for patients in Basking Ridge, NJ, and the surrounding community.
Dental implants are generally considered to be the best way to replace missing teeth, providing long-lasting and natural-looking results. Implants are small titanium rods, used to replace your lost roots. Custom-made prosthetic teeth are secured on top of these implants, which can effectively replace any number of missing teeth.
Dental implants are considered standard-of-care for tooth replacement and offer many benefits over traditional dentures and bridges. Some of the primary advantages of dental implants include:
The best candidates for dental implants surgery are missing one or more teeth, and are in good health overall. Unmanaged diabetes or untreated gum disease may make you ineligible for implant placement. Candidates must also have adequate jawbone or be eligible for bone regeneration via a bone graft. To see if you might be a candidate for dental implants in Basking Ridge, contact Ridge Oral Surgery today!
Your treatment journey begins when you meet with Dr. Mehrotra for a one-on-one consultation. During this consultation, he will examine your teeth and jaw, ask some questions about your medical history, and confirm your candidacy for a safe, successful procedure. You will also have a chance to ask any questions you have about the types of dental implant surgery, treatment plan, recovery, and results.
In some situations, you may need to have an unhealthy tooth extracted or bone tissue regenerated before you can have implants placed. Your implant surgery will be scheduled once these supplemental procedures have been completed.
For most patients, dental implant recovery is fairly easy. You will likely feel ready to resume your normal activities within two or three days, and you will be able to transition from soft foods and liquids to your normal diet not long thereafter.
Some discomfort can be expected during recovery, but both prescribed and over-the-counter medications are available to promote your well-being.
