 Today’s dental implants are the smartest investment you can make when it comes to permanently replacing missing teeth.

What are Dental Implants?

Implants are biocompatible, artificial tooth roots. They’re non-invasive to your surrounding teeth, making them ideal for full mouth reconstruction and tooth replacement.

 Each implant triggers a process we call “osseointegration,” which is new bone development around the implant, adhering to and fusing it within the mouth. Once fully integrated (with little pain), a well-maintained dental implant should last the rest of your life.

When set in place, implants help to support your bone and facial profile, preventing the aged, “sunken-in” appearance that often accompanies tooth loss.

Careful planning followed by implant placement sets a solid foundation for an array of restorative options.

After the healing period, crowns or bridges will be custom-made and attached to the implants with small screws or dental cement. Numerous components help Dr. Fabiola Garcia deliver the best result when completing the final stage. But it's the customization of your case from initial planning to final placement that makes all the difference. This allows a full range of services to be considered, from the replacement of one tooth to restoration of the entire mouth. Regardless of your situation, there's a safe solution for you.

Stronger Than Natural Teeth

Implants are made of titanium (a material frequently used in joint replacement.) They’re very durable and can bear more weight than natural teeth. As such, our Houston implant dentist can use them in pairs to support multi-tooth restorations such as bridges and dentures.

Choose to use implants for replacing a single tooth, or all of them at once!

Individualized Treatment Plans

Dr. Fabiola Garcia uses the latest technology and resources to plan the best implant treatment for you as an individual. As the “quarterback” of your implant process, we’ll make recommendations on how many implants you need and the best type of restoration for your specific situation.

Modern dental implants are available for more people than ever before, thanks to resources like digitally mapped placement. With 3D imaging, Houston implant dentists can place your restoration virtually, prior to your appointment. This resource maximizes the amount of healthy bone structure that you have, making implants available to more people than ever. You can’t do that with a two-dimensional X-ray!

Are Implants Right for Me?

When you visit our Houston dentist for an implant consultation, we’ll want to screen you for bone loss, gum disease, and specific types of medical disorders. Please be sure to bring a list of any medications or supplements that you’re currently taking. 

As long as you qualify for implants and are committed to caring for them daily (simply brush and floss them like natural teeth) then dental implants are a great solution for your missing tooth needs. 

What About Implant Dentures?

If you’re currently wearing a denture but struggle with it feeling loose or insecure, then an implant-retained alternative may be better. Using as few as 2-4 implants, we can create a denture with special locators that snap/clip onto your supporting implants underneath. The results give you a comfortable, secure fit that you can feel confident about. 

Custom Designed Implant Restorations

When you smile with your new dental implants, you can rest assured knowing that Dr. Garcia will select custom-designed ceramic and porcelain restorations that enhance your smile’s function and appearance. We want your new smile to look as great as it feels and will select specific shapes and hues to compliment your individual appearance.
