Missing Teeth? Let’s Fix That for Good
Unlike dentures or bridges, dental implants don’t just sit on the gums or rely on neighboring teeth for support. Our dentist places implants directly into the jawbone, creating a stable foundation that helps preserve bone health and facial structure. You get a long-lasting, natural-looking solution that feels like your own tooth. Whether missing one tooth or several, we can tailor your treatment plan to fit your needs.
Here’s why patients choose implants:
- Permanent tooth replacement with proper care
- No slipping or clicking like traditional dentures
- Protects the jawbone from bone loss
- Doesn’t damage or rely on surrounding teeth
- Allows you to chew, smile, and speak with confidence
Dental Implants in Tumwater: All the Details
We guide you through every stage of your implant journey, from evaluation to final restoration. Our process ensures comfort, safety, and long-term success.
Step 1: Consultation and Planning
We begin with a comprehensive exam using our CBCT scanner and digital X-rays. These tools give us a detailed 3D view of your bone and tissues, helping the dentist plan exact implant placement. We also review your health history and discuss your goals.
Step 2: Implant Placement
The doctor places the titanium implant into your jawbone using precise surgical guides. We often use same-day appointments to streamline care. With nitrous oxide and cozy amenities like blankets and pillows, your comfort remains a top priority.
Step 3: Healing and Osseointegration
Over the next few months, the implant fuses naturally with the bone, creating a secure base for your final crown or denture. We monitor healing closely to ensure smooth progress.
Step 4: Final Restoration
Once healing finishes, we attach a custom crown or prosthetic. Using digital impressions and CAD/CAM technology, we craft a natural-looking result that matches your bite and smile. Our in-house 3D printer allows us to create precise parts quickly and efficiently.
Implants That Fit You, Not the Other Way Around
Each restoration option restores function and confidence while preserving your oral health. We help you understand your choices and select the one that fits your goals. We offer a range of implant solutions to match different needs and lifestyles:
- Single-Tooth Implants
We replace one missing tooth with a durable implant and custom crown. The restoration blends naturally with your surrounding teeth. - Implant-Supported Bridges
We use an implant-supported bridge to fill the space left by multiple missing teeth. This solution restores function without affecting nearby healthy teeth. - Implant Dentures
We secure full or partial dentures to dental implants for a stronger, more comfortable fit. This approach reduces movement and improves stability while eating and speaking. - Full-Arch Restoration
We restore an entire arch of teeth using a few strategically placed implants. This method offers a full, functional smile with fewer implants and faster results.
