Patients and oral surgeons alike love dental implants! Here’s why:
Canyon Oral & Facial Surgery Dental Implant Experts offers oral and facial surgery services to the greater Las Vegas, NV, community.
A dental implant has three parts: the post, the abutment, and the crown. During the procedure, your oral surgeon will surgically place the implant post into the jaw bone. The post is made of medical-grade titanium. Over time, the post fuses with the jaw bone. This fusion creates a secure foundation to support one tooth or many artificial teeth.
It takes several weeks for the post to fuse with the jaw bone. You may be given a temporary crown to wear during the healing period. Once your oral surgeon has confirmed the implant is successful, the permanent crown can be placed. This crown is custom-made to blend in with your smile.

Candidates need healthy gums to undergo dental implant surgery. Healthy gum tissue is important for adequate healing. Therefore, periodontal disease needs to be treated before the surgical procedure can take place.
