What is Dental Implant?
  • A dental implant is a procedure in dentistry in
    which an artificial tooth root that holds a
    prosthetic tooth in place doesnt require any
    special denture creams, pastes, or glues to stay

What to Expect During a Dental Implant surgery?
  • A dental implant surgery comprises of two phases.
    A good dental clinic will ensure that these steps
    are followed to give you the maximum comfort
    during and after the surgery. Before choosing an
    implant dentist Little Rock, you should have a
    clear idea about these two phases and check if
    the dentist has adequate experience and expertise
    in handling the task. Let us have a look at the
    first phase of the surgical procedure

First phase
  • The first and foremost phase is when your surgeon
    sedates the area
  • to be operated with a local or general
    anesthesia.
  • There is an incision made to expose the bone
    underneath where the
  • artificial tooth is to be implanted.
  • The bone exposed is drilled and a space for the
    implant is created.
  • After the implant is inserted into the space
    made, there is another
  • component that is used to keep the implant in
    place during the
  • healing process.
  • The gums are placed over the implant and the area
    is stitched.
  • Slowly, the implant gets fixed to the bone.

Second phase
  • Another incision is made in the area of the
    implant to re-expose the implant.
  • An extension is made so that the impression of
    the new crown can be taken.
  • After this, you will have to go through a series
    of appointments so that your implant dentist
    Little Rock can make your new dental implant
    crown.
  • Among the various workable models, a precise
    model is selected that best suits your mouth.
  • In many cases, your implant dentist Little Rock
    might want to give the new crown a try to ensure
    maximum efficiency of restoration. This is done
    to make sure that the dental implant suits your
    mouth and will not cause problems in the long
    run.
