How Dental Implants Work
Replacing missing teeth may be easier than you think.
An older man wondering, how do dental implants work?

At MZ Dentistry, we use the latest technology to help you restore your smile. Here is a brief overview of our dental implant process.

  • Step 1: Consultation

    Meet with our restorative dentist, Dr. ZielinskiLearn more about our doctor, to see if you qualify for dental implants. We’ll complete a thorough exam, take x-rays and images, plus discuss your needs. You must be in overall good health and have enough bone density in your jaw to support the implant.

  • Step 2: Implant

    A small titanium post, which is the dental implant, replaces your tooth root. In time, the implant permanently bonds to your jawbone. We then add a small connector, AKA an abutment, onto the implant, which will hold your new restoration in place.

  • Step 3: Restoration

    Our cosmetic and restorative dentist combines beauty and function to plan your tooth replacement. We take impressions of your mouth and design your new crown, bridge, or denture to match your appearance. Once complete, our dentist attaches the restoration and double-checks for fit and comfort. Enjoy your new and improved smile for decades!

  • Are dental implants worth it?

  • How many years do dental implants last?

    The life expectancy of restorations varies, but the implant itself may last a lifetime. The restoration, which is above the gum line, is used daily for eating and chewing but typically lasts 10-15 years or even longer.

    There are ways to extend the lifespan of your dental work, but most importantly, you should keep up with your oral hygiene, visit your dentist at least twice a year, and follow a healthy lifestyle.
