Solutions for Missing Teeth in Atlanta

Discover Effective Solutions for Missing Teeth

At Atlanta Dental Center, various options are available to restore your smile and improve your quality of life. Whether you are missing a single tooth, multiple teeth, or an entire arch, state-of-the-art dental implant solutions can be tailored to meet your specific needs. Every treatment offered is designed to ensure comfort, functionality, and a natural-looking result.

Replacing a Single Missing Tooth

A single missing tooth can be effectively replaced with a dental implant, which provides a durable and natural-looking solution. Unlike a dental bridge, a dental implant does not require the adjacent teeth to be altered. This means that the integrity of your surrounding teeth is preserved while also preventing bone loss that often accompanies missing teeth. With an implant, the gap is filled with a restoration that matches your natural teeth, ensuring your smile looks seamless. To explore more, you can learn about replacing a single missing tooth with dental implants.

Replacing Multiple Missing Teeth

For those missing multiple teeth, several options are available to restore your smile:

  • Implant-Supported Dentures: Two or more dental implants per arch are placed to stabilize specially fitted dentures, enhancing chewing ability and preventing the dentures from slipping.
  • Implant-Supported Bridges: For replacing three or more adjacent teeth, implant-supported bridges are a preferred option. Unlike dentures, bridges are permanently fixed and function very much like natural teeth. In cases of multiple missing teeth, implant-supported bridges offer a secure and lasting solution.
  • Partial Dentures: Partial dentures can also be used to fill gaps in your smile. Although traditionally anchored to natural teeth with metal attachments, partial dentures are best stabilized with implants for added security.

Replacing All Your Teeth

For patients needing to replace a full set of teeth, traditional dentures have been the conventional solution. However, dentures often slip, causing discomfort and making eating difficult. Additionally, they do not prevent the bone loss that can lead to an aged appearance over time.

New Teeth in One Day offers a modern and highly effective alternative. With this procedure, four strategically placed implants in each arch are used to secure a full set of permanent teeth. These implants are angled to maximize the use of available bone, often eliminating the need for bone grafting. As a result, patients can enjoy the benefits of stable, natural-looking teeth that provide nearly full chewing power. The entire procedure, including any necessary extractions, is typically completed in just one day, allowing you to leave the office with a brand-new smile. To understand more about this revolutionary procedure, you can learn about New Teeth in One Day.

Our Dental Implant Procedure

The dental implant process begins with a 3D scan, capturing a precise 360-degree image of your head. This detailed X-ray allows us to create an accurate and efficient surgical plan tailored to your needs.

Next, the 3D digital X-ray images are used to meticulously plan the implant placement. During surgery, the X-Guide® system provides real-time visualization, showing the implant’s exact location and depth, ensuring precision with every placement. This advanced technology functions as an augmented reality, giving the dentist complete control over the procedure.

A surgical guide is created to further ensure the implant is placed at the correct angle and depth. This tool is essential for achieving optimal positioning, which directly contributes to the long-term success of the implant.

To enhance patient comfort and surgical precision, a Piezo ultrasonic handpiece is used as an alternative to the traditional scalpel. This device allows for more precise and gentle cutting, reducing the time spent in the dental chair and improving recovery times.

In many cases, a centrifuge is used to create plasma rich in growth factors from the patient’s own blood platelets. These growth factors promote faster healing and improve the overall success of the implant procedure.

"If I ever moved, I think I would fly here for my dentistry! It has a lot to do with how expert the dentists are. They do the injection in the exact area. Unlike in the past, people can’t even tell when I have been to the dentist as my lip where I had the injection looks completely normal"
