Contact UsWhat Are Dental Implants?
Restoring badly compromised teeth is important to the general health and quality of the mouth. To allow Cranston, RI people to efficiently resolve extracted or missing teeth, our restorative dentistry team is very pleased to provide high-quality dental implants to achieve tooth restoration. A fixed implant uses a titanium screw that functions as a substitute tooth root. A specially crafted crown, bridge, or denture is used as the erupted portion of the lost tooth (or numerous teeth). If you experience missing teeth or require a tooth extraction, set up a visit at Dr. Matrullo & Associates and inquire about your oral implant options.
What Are the Benefits of Dental Implants?
Dental implants are usually preferred for the vast range of wellness advantages they provide. As effective restorations, oral implants:
- Produce improved chewing strength and durability of oral restorations
- Do not make use of surrounding teeth to remain in position
- Mimic normal teeth in capability and visual appeal
- Function as a long-term option
- Combine with the bone tissues to help preserve jawbone wellness and function
- Encourage the adaptation of a diverse diet
- Might help strengthen your confidence while talking and any time you smile
What Is the Treatment Process?
The methodology for fixed implants consists of the careful placement of the implant and the attachment of a natural-looking oral replacement (including partial pieces, crowns, and bridges). Once your mouth is ready for treatment, it will be dulled with oral anesthesia. Oral-conscious or IV techniques could also be used to allow you to feel more comfortable during your session. The fixed screw will be expertly secured within your jaw at a certain location and given time to merge with the bone through a phenomenon called osseointegration. When the implant area has completely healed (commonly several months later), Dr. Matrullo & Associates will attach a unique crown, denture, or bridge and check the alignment of your jaw.
What Can I Expect After Implant Placement?
Individuals who get this surgery could experience mild swelling, bruising, and discomfort around the impacted area. Prescribed or drugstore pain relievers and cool compresses could help address their post-surgery discomfort. When the metal post has integrated with the jaw and the custom crown, denture, or bridge is placed, it's essential to keep up with a good oral hygiene regimen with proper brushing and flossing habits. When individuals schedule with Dr. Matrullo & Associates for their twice-yearly dental visits, we will utilize fine dental instruments to disinfect their oral implants and check up on the state of their restorations.

About UsDental Implants FAQs
Can dental implants be used in combination with other dental procedures?
Yes, dental implants are often used in conjunction with other dental procedures to provide a comprehensive solution for oral health issues. For example, if you have multiple missing teeth, implants can be used to support a dental bridge or as anchor points for dentures. During your consultation at Dr. Matrullo & Associates, our restorative dentistry team will discuss your unique needs and can recommend a combination of treatments that would offer you the most beneficial results.
Is there a risk of dental implant failure?
While dental implant procedures have a high success rate, there's always a small risk of failure. Factors like poor oral hygiene, smoking, and certain medical conditions can affect the implant's ability to fuse with the jawbone, a process known as osseointegration. If you notice any signs of complications, such as persistent pain or loosening of the implant, it's important to consult with us immediately for an evaluation and to discuss the next steps.
Do dental implants require special cleaning or maintenance?
Dental implants do not require special cleaning, but maintaining good oral hygiene is crucial for their longevity. Regular brushing, flossing, and dental check-ups are essential. The implanted tooth itself can't get a cavity, but gum disease could still pose a risk to the surrounding tissue and bone. Our team will provide detailed instructions on how to care for your dental implants and ensure they last for many years to come.
