Dental implants are the new standard of care for tooth

replacement and often the best treatment for missing teeth.

They bond with healthy bone and provide permanent

support for dental crowns and dentures. Dental implants

look and feel like natural teeth and can last a lifetime.

When a damaged or decayed tooth is removed, both the

visible part of the tooth, called the crown, and the root

are lost. A dental implant is placed in the jawbone so that

it can fuse with your natural bone and become a strong

and sturdy foundation for replacement teeth. Implants can

be used to replace an individual tooth or for an implant-

supported bridge or denture containing multiple teeth.

Dental implants are the closest you can get to healthy,

natural teeth. They will allow you to confidently eat, smile,

laugh, talk, play, and enjoy all of your regular activities of

everyday life without thinking about your teeth.

Dental implants have three components:

• Dental Implant – A cylindrical and/or tapered

post, made of titanium, which serves as a substitute

for the tooth root. This goes into the jawbone to create

a secure structure. The implant surface coating and

thread design are major factors Dr. Smoler takes into

account for his patient’s health and well-being.

• Abutment – A connector, placed on, or built into,

the top of the dental implant, to connect the implant to

the replacement tooth or teeth. There are 3 main types

of abutments: stock, angled and custom made from

titanium alloy, gold or white ceramic or zirconium.

Individual clinical needs help to determine the best

option for each patient.

• Crown – A replacement tooth, custom made to

match your natural teeth. Usually made from either

porcelain fused to metal or an all porcelain type of

crown (cap).

What is a Dental Implant?A dental implant is a small titanium post placed in the bone

beneath the gums, where it can serve as a replacement tooth

root. Titanium is osteophilic (bone-loving), which means bone

cells will attach to and integrate with it. The implant body often

includes ridges or threads that also help it anchor to the bone.

Implants provide an immovable support for the natural-looking

replacement teeth that are attached to them.

WHAT ARE DENTAL IMPLANTS?


Teeth restored with dental implants look, feel, and function just like natural teeth. You brush, floss, and visit your dentist for

regular check-ups and cleanings, same as you would care for a natural tooth.

After meeting with Dr. Smoler to develop your treatment plan, the placement of a dental implant usually involves several steps:

HOW DO DENTAL IMPLANTS WORK?

1 2 3 4

The dental implant,

usually a cylindrical and/

or tapered post made

of titanium, is placed

surgically into the jawbone.

As you heal, your implant

will fuse with your natural

jawbone to form a strong

and long-lasting foundation

for your replacement teeth.

This healing process can

take weeks to months.

Once the implant bonds

with the jawbone, a small

connector – called an

abutment – is placed

on top of the dental implant

to connect the implant to

the replacement tooth or

teeth.

An individual tooth or an

implant-supported bridge

containing multiple teeth

are then attached to the

abutment.


Why Choose Dental Implants?Crowns, bridges and dentures

address the short-term cosmetic

problem of missing teeth but do

nothing to stop bone loss. Crown &

bridge dentistry requires grinding

down healthy teeth leaving them

at much greater risk for cavities

and tooth failure. Bridges do

not stop bone loss. Dentures

become uncomfortable and

unstable over time as the jawbone

shrinks causing eating and speech

problems.

With dental implants, healthy

teeth are not compromised.

Dental implants, like natural teeth,

stimulate the jaw and stop bone

loss. Leading dental organizations

recognize dental implants as

the standard of care for tooth

replacement.

Do you or a loved one suffer from missing teeth? If so, you

are not alone. Many adults suffer from the pain, discomfort and

embarrassment of missing teeth,

and this number increases every

year. Fortunately, Dr. Bruce

Smoler and Smoler Institute

of Implant Dentistry, has three

convenient locations in Michigan

(Westland, Rochester Hills, &

West Bloomfield). Dr. Smoler and his team has the experience and

expertise to magically make your

problems disappear. In less than

one day with Smoler Institute

Express Teeth In A Day (Express

All-on-4), you can change your life!Unlike natural-tooth-supposed

bridgework, dental implants don’t

require adjacent healthy teeth

to be filed down. Implants don’t lead to an increased risk of gum

disease, tooth decay, or a root

canal problem.

For instance: removable dentures.

Implants won’t shift or feel

uncomfortable. They don’t develop

odors or need special cleaners and

adhesives. They don’t restrict what

foods you can eat or make you feel

uncomfortable about chewing,

speaking, or smiling. And you’ll

never have to worry about them

slipping or falling out.

One of the biggest benefits of dental implants is that they can

help reduce bone loss in the jaw.

The natural erosion of bone

begins as soon as a tooth is lost–

and, if more tooth loss occurs, it

may result in the loss of other teeth

and lead to a sunken, prematurely

aged look in one’s facial features.

Because dental implants integrate

into bone, they provide a stimulus

that keeps the jawbone from

deteriorating. This helps to

maintain a more youthful facial

structure–and better oral health.

And another major benefit of implants is the lasting value they

offer. With proper care, they can last for the rest of your life, on top

of the main benefit: they make you feel like a young, healthier you!
