Dental implants are an incredible advancement in tooth replacement. An implant is essentially a titanium post which is placed into the jawbone where a tooth is missing. After a replacement tooth caps the post, the structure looks and functions just like a normal tooth.
Dr. Chin’s thirty years of experience and results help patients achieve long-term success with dental implants. He knows that overload is a primary cause of implant failure, so Dr. Chin has trained extensively in the latest techniques and technologies to avoid overload issues.
One-visit Next-Generation implants are the next step in implant technology. Next-generation implants are an excellent solution for anchoring not only crowns, but also bridges and dentures. This makes them especially useful for quickly and easily replacing multiple teeth.
Next-Generation Implants offer the same benefits as implants but they offer these advantages:
Traditional Implants | Next Generation Implants | |
---|---|---|
Cost | More Expensive | Less Expensive |
Treatment Time | Several visits over 8-18 months (depending on need for bone augmentation procedures.) | Treatment is often completed in just one visit. |
Surgery | Invasive surgery; more traumatic potential; requires incisions and stitches | Much less invasive surgery; less traumatic potential; usually requires no incisions, and no stitches |
Hole Diameter | Big hole; relatively large screw needs a substantial hole in the jaw bone | Smaller implant means smaller hole in the bone |
Recovery Time | Substantial recovery time | Quick recovery time |
Reliability and Durability | Excellent | Excellent |
Bone Grafting Surgery | Sometimes necessary | Not necessary |
Medications | Surgery requires patients to stop using blood thinners | Procedure does not require change in medications |
