Expert Dental Implants in Albany
Dental Implants for Teeth Replacement
We offer a permanent teeth replacement option through dental implants at our Albany dental clinic. With implants, we can create a smile that you’ll love for a long time.a
What is a dental implant?
A dental implant is a permanent way to replace a missing tooth. It’s done through surgical placement of a titanium post into your jawbone. Over time, your bone fuses around the implant, creating a strong and stable foundation for an artificial tooth attachment. Depending on the number of missing teeth, an implant can be topped with a single crown, a bridge, or even dentures.
We use high-quality Straumann and Nobel Biocare tooth implants in Albany that look, feel, and function like a natural tooth. Trust us; people won’t be able to tell them apart from your natural teeth.
FAQ’S
How are dental implants done?
Placement of your dental implants at our Albany dental centre is carried out in 3 steps. First, our dentist will make an incision along your gum where the implant will be placed. Then, a small pilot hole will be made in the bone to accommodate the placement of the implant. Once the implant is placed, we close the gum over it and give it time to heal.
What are the disadvantages of dental implants?
While dental implants in Albany have an impressive 95% success rate, there is still a chance that they can fail. Failure of dental implants may happen because of poor oral health or infection. If this happens, the bone will not integrate with the implant.
How long does it take for dental implants to heal?
Generally, by the six-month point, your implant should have healed nicely. The bone should be fused with the implant, and the surgery site should be in good health. Then, to complete your treatment, our dentist will now design and create your artificial tooth.
How long does treatment with dental implants take?
Getting dental implants at our Albany office is a commitment. On average, treatment takes around 6 to 9 months to complete. But throughout the process, our dental team will ensure optimal comfort and safety, with results that meet your goals and expectations.
How much do dental implants cost?
The cost of a dental implant in our Albany clinic varies from patient to patient. It’s best to visit us for a complete assessment and fee estimation. Charges may be incurred for additional procedures like bone grafting, necessary for dental implant success. Our Implant dentist will give you a customised treatment plan with a transparent breakdown of the costs involved.
