Understanding Dental Implants
Dental implants are innovative tooth replacement devices that replicate the structure of natural teeth. These small, biocompatible titanium posts are carefully placed into your jawbone, serving as artificial tooth roots.
Over time, they integrate with your bone tissue, establishing a robust foundation for replacement teeth. Whether you’re missing a single tooth or require full arch restoration, implants offer a durable and aesthetically pleasing solution that can revolutionize your oral health and overall well-being.

Comprehensive Oral Assessment
Your path to a restored smile begins with a thorough evaluation at WA Dental. We’ll examine your oral health, discuss your goals, and determine if dental implants are the right solution for you. Using advanced imaging technology, we’ll assess bone density and plan the optimal placement for your implants.
Custom Treatment Design
Based on our detailed assessment, we’ll create a personalized treatment plan tailored to your specific needs. This plan outlines every step of the implant process, from any necessary preparatory procedures to the final restoration. We’ll discuss the timeline, costs, and what you can expect throughout your treatment, ensuring you feel fully informed and confident moving forward.
Precision Implant Placement
The implant surgery is performed with meticulous care and precision. Using local anesthesia to ensure your comfort, our experienced dentists will carefully position the implant in your jawbone. This outpatient procedure is followed by a healing period, during which the implant integrates with your bone, creating a strong foundation for your new tooth.
Customized Restoration Crafting
Once healing is complete, we’ll take impressions of your mouth to create your custom-made crown, bridge, or denture. Our dental lab uses state-of-the-art technology to fabricate restorations that look and feel just like natural teeth. We pay close attention to every detail, from color matching to bite alignment, ensuring your new teeth function perfectly and enhance your smile.
Ongoing Care and Maintenance
After your implant restoration is complete, we’ll provide comprehensive instructions on how to care for your new teeth. This includes proper cleaning techniques, dietary recommendations, and tips for maintaining optimal oral health. Regular follow-up appointments at WA Dental will help ensure the longevity of your implants and address any concerns that may arise.

FAQs About Dental Implants
Do dental implants hurt?
The implant procedure is performed under local anesthesia, ensuring you’re comfortable throughout. Most patients report less discomfort than expected, often comparing it to a tooth extraction. Post-procedure, you may experience some swelling and mild soreness, which can be managed with over-the-counter pain relievers. Our team at WA Dental provides comprehensive aftercare instructions to ensure a smooth recovery process.
How to get help with dental implants?
The best way to start is by scheduling a consultation with an experienced implant dentist. At our office, we offer thorough evaluations to determine if implants are right for you. During this visit, we’ll assess your oral health, discuss your goals, and outline potential treatment options. We’re here to answer all your questions and provide the information you need to make an informed decision about your dental health.
Why no dairy after dental implant?
We typically advise avoiding dairy products for a short period following implant surgery. This recommendation is primarily because dairy can interfere with the absorption of antibiotics that might be prescribed post-surgery. Additionally, some dairy products may increase mucus production, which can be uncomfortable during the initial healing phase. This restriction is temporary, and we’ll provide you with a comprehensive list of dietary guidelines to follow during your recovery.
How long does the dental implant take?
The complete dental implant process usually spans several months. The initial implant placement surgery is often completed in a single appointment. Following this, there’s a healing period of about 3-6 months, during which the implant integrates with your jawbone. Once healing is complete, we’ll place the abutment and your custom-made crown. While this process requires some patience, the long-term benefits of a permanent, natural-looking tooth replacement make it a worthwhile investment in your oral health.
