Dental implants are a permanent solution for replacing missing or severely damaged teeth. Unlike traditional dentures or bridges, dental implants are embedded directly into your jawbone, providing a stable and durable foundation for crowns, bridges, or dentures. At Division Street Dental Group in Palmdale, we use state-of-the-art technology and materials to ensure that your dental implants look and function just like your natural teeth, giving you back the confidence to smile, eat, and speak with ease.

The Components of a Dental Implant

A dental implant consists of three main components:

  • Implant Post: A small titanium screw that is surgically placed into the jawbone to serve as the foundation for your new tooth. Titanium is highly biocompatible, meaning it fuses with the bone over time in a process called osseointegration.
  • Abutment: This is a small connector piece that attaches to the implant post. The abutment acts as the link between the implant and the restoration (crown, bridge, or denture).
  • Restoration: This is the visible part of the implant, such as a crown, bridge, or denture, designed to match the shape, size, and color of your natural teeth.

Why Choose Dental Implants?

Dental implants offer several advantages over traditional tooth replacement options, making them the preferred choice for many patients. Here’s why dental implants are a great option:

  • Long-Lasting: Dental implants are built to last for decades or even a lifetime with proper care, making them a cost-effective investment in the long run.
  • Natural Appearance: The restorations placed on the implants blend seamlessly with your natural teeth, giving you a beautiful, natural-looking smile.
  • Preserves Bone Health: Implants stimulate the jawbone, preventing bone loss that typically occurs when teeth are missing.
  • Improved Functionality: Dental implants restore the full function of your teeth, allowing you to chew, speak, and smile comfortably without the worry of slippage like traditional dentures.
  • No Impact on Surrounding Teeth: Unlike dental bridges, implants don’t require altering the adjacent healthy teeth, ensuring that your natural teeth remain intact.
