Rebuild Your Smile with Functional and Realistic-looking Dental Implants

Dental implants in Shelby Township, Michigan, are the gold standard for replacing one or multiple teeth at Dr. Ban R. Barbat. Dental implants are surgically embedded in the jawbone, providing root stability when using your teeth. This unique design means that dental implants last a lifetime with eating or speaking stability.

How do dental implants replace missing teeth?

A dental implant mimics the structural design of your natural tooth from the crown to the root. The implant system uses a titanium post to act as a prosthetic root. The titanium fixture is surgically inserted in the jawbone and fuses over time with the bone to form an unbreakable bond. In addition to the titanium post, your implant involves an abutment. The dentist attaches this small prosthetic post above your implant to link with the replacement teeth.

Dental implants can support a single or multiple missing teeth. This versatility ensures dental implants can replace any missing teeth in the mouth. 

Our dental implant options include: 

  • Single-unit implants: We can replace a single missing tooth by placing a titanium post in the same position your tooth used to be. We restore single-unit implants with customized dental crowns. 
  • Implant-supported bridges: The dentist can replace a few missing teeth in a row with an implant bridge. Unlike traditional bridges, an implant-supported bridge offers better stability and doesn’t alter the structure of nearby teeth. 
  • All-on-4 dental implants: Have you lost all your upper and/or lower teeth in the mouth? The all-on-4 technique is a predictable solution for extensive tooth loss. The dentist only uses four implants per arch to secure a complete denture, providing full mouth restoration with incredible stability.

How are dental implants placed?

Dr. Ban R. Barbat is a full-service dental implant office in Shelby Township. All dental implant steps—from planning and placement to restoration—are expertly done in our office. Your treatment starts with a comprehensive consultation with 3D CBCT scanning. Dr. Shakfa will inspect the health of your jawbone to determine if it is healthy enough to support an implant. If not, we’ll recommend bone grafting to augment your jawbone. 

Once your jawbone is ready, the dentist will numb your gums with powerful anesthetics to ensure a painless experience. Sedation dentistry is also available on request to calm your nerves during treatment. Once you are comfortable, the dentist will carefully place titanium posts at precise locations in the jawbone. 

Next, the dentist will suture the implant site and leave it to heal and fuse with the jawbone in the next few months. Once your implant becomes fully integrated with the jawbone, you’ll return to our office to place an abutment. Then, we’ll take digital scans of your tooth to custom-create your prosthetic tooth or teeth. Once your implant is restored, you’ll smile confidently and eat comfortably for restored confidence!
