Dental implant surgery is a specialized procedure where medical-grade titanium posts are surgically positioned into the jawbone to replace missing tooth roots. At Quality Dental Care, our team of oral surgeons and periodontists performs this surgery using advanced technology to provide a permanent, stable foundation for natural-looking replacement teeth.
Opting for dental implant surgery with our Hudson Valley specialists offers significant long-term advantages:
To determine if you are a candidate for implant surgery, our experts in Hopewell Junction or Pawling perform a comprehensive oral evaluation. We use digital imaging to assess your bone density. If your jawbone isn’t thick enough, we may perform a bone grafting surgery prior to the implant placement to ensure a successful outcome. We also provide individualized surgical plans for patients with chronic health conditions.
The implant surgery is a multi-step clinical process:
Implant Placement: The titanium post is surgically embedded into the bone. We prioritize your comfort with advanced local anesthesia and sedation options.
Osseointegration: During a 6–12 week healing period, the jawbone fuses with the surgical post.
Abutment Connection: Once the site has healed, a small connector (the abutment) is attached to the implant.
Final Restoration: We place your custom-crafted crown, bridge, or denture onto the post, completing the surgical restoration.
Post-operative care is crucial for the success of your implant surgery. You should treat your implants like natural teeth: brush twice daily, floss, and follow any specific antibacterial rinse instructions provided by our surgeons. Avoid chewing on hard objects like ice during the initial healing phase. Regular follow-up exams at Quality Dental Care will ensure your surgical sites remain healthy and your implants last a lifetime.
