Single Dental Implant
Cheney, WA

Take care of them as if they were your own natural teeth.

• Brush and floss twice a day.
• Schedule regular cleanings based on your dentist's recommendations.

What sets this procedure apart and enables immediate attachment to your implants is the incorporation of your new teeth, which rigidly splint all your implants together, forming an implant bridge. This firm connection prevents any slight movement among the implants that could result in premature failure. Essentially, your implants and the bridge form a mutually supportive system.

Crafted from titanium, the very material employed in crafting artificial hip and knee joints, your dental implants will seamlessly integrate with your jawbone, fostering natural growth and attachment over the course of time.

After your implant placement, it is normal to experience slight bleeding for the first 24 hours. If you notice excessive bleeding, please reach out to the clinic for assistance.

A helpful home remedy for promoting clotting and stopping bleeding is using tea bags. To do this, dampen a regular tea bag, remove any excess water, and place it on your extraction site(s). The tanic acid found in tea leaves aids in clotting. If needed, you can use more tea bags. Remember to replace saturated tea bags as necessary. Repeat this process as needed.

Although titanium dental implants have a success rate of over 95%, it is important to note that they can still experience failures. Several factors can contribute to their failure, including:

• Lack of integration with the bone
• Smoking habits
• Diabetes condition

If the implant fails within the initial year, your dentist will provide a replacement free of charge.
