OSTELL
Implants are tested for osseointigration stability with an Osstell Instrument to assure the implant is ready for restoration. All patients heal at different rates. This insures the doctor that the implant is strong enough to support its given function for long term reliability.
VERSAH DRILL SYSTEM
Specialized Versah drills are available to expand and condense bone during implant placement in order to preserve bone. Conventional implant burs remove good bone during placement.
BONE GRAFTS
Bone grafting when necessary is done on site utilizing several different techniques and options for grafts depending on the patients desires.
Ridge Augmentation
When you lose teeth, and do not replace them, the jawbone deteriorates where the tooth socket once was. This makes it difficult, and in some instances impossible to get dental implants or dentures later on.
We can perform a process called ridge augmentation to restore the bone structure that is needed for restorative procedures such as dental implants. The process involves lifting the gum from the ridge to expose the defected area of the bone. Then the dentist uses a bone like substance to fill the defected areas. The ridge augmentation greatly improves the appearance of the mouth and increases the chances for success with the implants. With ridge augmentation, your implants will last for years.
Sinus Augmentation
Your upper back teeth preserve the bone and position of the maxillary sinus. When you lose upper back teeth, with time the sinus will pneumatize or drop leaving little bone for implant placement if you choose at a later date.
A simple procedure allows the sinus floor to be repositioned, creating enough space to properly place an implant. Various grafting materials are used to encourage your bone to grow more quickly into the area, helping to stabilize the dental implant.
