Benefits and Risks of Getting Dental Implants 

Like any other dental surgery, there are various benefits and risks associated with the procedure. Dental implants are meant to improve oral health, leading to a better and happier life. Despite being one of the most successful dental procedures, it can still come with the possibility of complications. Visting a reputable dental office with dental implant experience is the best way to ensure that the chances of any health risks are mitigated. 

​

Benefits of Getting Dental implants

• Provides and restores the authentic appearance and feel of teeth

• There are no food limitations as the jawbone remains stronger

• Since a bridge is not necessary, adjacent teeth health is maintained

• Activate the jawbone to stop bone deterioration and avoid shrinking 

• They are long-lasting and dependable

• Implants improve general oral health by preserving nearby or adjacent teeth. 

• Preserve gums and the jawbone 
   

Potential Risks Associated with Dental Implants 

• Surgery-related tissue damage, such as sinus perforation, may occur.

• A surgical injury is a risk you could suffer. 

• Adjacent natural teeth may be harmed when implants are inserted

• Due to a loose abutment screw, a tooth may appear to be twisting

• Poor oral hygiene can make it difficult to wash the gums around the implant

• Due to local infection, delayed healing, or systemic infection, dental implants could result in more health challenges 

• Dental implants could interfere with imaging such as x-ray and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) procedures

The Average cost of a Dental Implant

Currently, not all dental insurance covers provide coverage for dental implants. If you have dental insurance, please contact the office to verify dental implant benefits within your policy. Depending on the insurance policy or the reason for tooth loss, coverage under your medical plan may be feasible. Dental implants offer the best value for your money in the current healthcare setting. The cost is significantly less compared to other intricate and complex dental replacements. Meanwhile, New York Dental Studio offers financial options interest free for up to 12 months for dental implants provided by CareCredit. For more information, please contact the office directly.

What Do You Expect During the Dental Implants Procedure?

The doctor first examines your dental formation to determine the kind of treatment you need. Once all is checked and sedation is administered to the said position, the doctor will make an incision to access the jawbone. 

During the procedure, the dental implant body is inserted in the jawbone surgically to serve as the root. Next, the dental abutment is attached to the implant using the fixation screw, which extends through the gum to the mouth to hold the implant. You can expect the procedure to take approximately 30 minutes to an hour to fix one dental implant. 

​

What is Healing Like after Dental Implants Surgery?

Although the healing process might feel sensitive, antibiotics and painkillers are often prescribed to boost healing. The dental implant might take 3 to 6 months to heal completely. 

Practices you should observe include: 

• Carefully following the oral hygiene instructions outlined by your dental provider. 

• Regularly visiting the dentists. 

• Cleaning the teeth and the implants regularly and after every meal. 

• Avoid habits such as smoking, and chewing candy, among others.
