Removing Dental Implant Inconvenience
Many dental offices in the Quad Cities send their patients to a specialist to place the implant. The inconvenience of going to several offices increases the cost and involves more time for the patient. At Main Family Dental Care, we save you time and money!
Less Pain or Discomfort
No sutures are required and many patients say that they felt no pain or discomfort during or after the dental implant placement. Because no sutures where placed and because the implant placement is done without gum removal, there is less swelling, less post-operative pain and faster healing.
After the implant is placed, the body will need to accept and integrate the titanium implant for 3 to 6 months. It is important that the patient maintain good oral hygiene to increase the chances of the body accepting the dental implant. After the dental implant is healed, the patient returns for a 15 minute impression appointment and then 10 days later the crown or tooth is cemented into the implant. The last two appointments are pain free and the patient does not need to be numb for the impression or cementation of the implant. The crown that is cemented is natural and tooth colored and is indistinguishable from your natural teeth.
Patients who are candidates for dental implant placement must be healthy patients with healthy gums and teeth. Patients must have adequate healthy bone to receive the dental implant and cannot smoke or be on any type of osteoporosis medication or drugs. Currently, Main Family Dental Care of Davenport does not accept patients for dental implants who smoke or who are uncontrolled diabetics, due to the increased chance of infection.
