Restore Your Smile with Confidence – Pooja Banga, DMD | Oral Health Center
What Are Dental Implants?
Dental implants are a long-lasting and natural-looking solution for replacing missing teeth. They consist of a small titanium post that is surgically placed into your bone, acting as an artificial tooth root. Once healed, a custom-made crown is attached to the implant, restoring both function and appearance.
Unlike dentures or bridges, dental implants are designed to fuse with your bone, creating a stable and permanent foundation for your new smile.
How Do Dental Implants Work?
The dental implant process typically happens in several stages:
1. Initial Consultation
Dr. Pooja Banga will evaluate your oral health, take digital imaging, and determine if you’re a good candidate for implants.
2. Implant Placement
A titanium post is surgically inserted into the jawbone. This acts as the root of your new tooth.
3. Healing & Osseointegration
Over the next few months, the implant fuses with your bone in a process called osseointegration. This creates a strong, stable base.
4. Abutment Placement
Once healed, a connector (abutment) is placed on top of the implant.
5. Custom Crown Placement
A natural-looking crown is attached, completing your smile restoration.
