Has your smile been damaged? Do you have chipped or missing teeth? Many patients believe that having an imperfect smile is embarrassing, and decreases self-confidence. Fortunately, at Ready 2 Smile Dental Group, we provide patients in the Temecula, CA area with professional dental implants. This particular intervention can help you to have a fully restored, functioning, natural looking tooth. It can also help you bring back that beautiful full smile you had before.

What You Need To Know About Dental Implants

It can be hard to decide which services are right for you, especially when you don’t understand what each dental replacement service entails. When it comes to dental implants, it is relatively simple. A dental implant is essentially titanium alloy rods that are screwed into a patient’s jawbone to act as the tooth’s natural root. This is then covered with a crown, which is the physical, top portion of the tooth that others will see when you smile. At Ready 2 Smile Dental Group, we offer the following dental implant services, so that patients can choose what best suits their unique needs:

Benefits of Dental Implants

Dental implants are a popular, successful tooth replacement method for many reasons. Though many patients just expect a dental implant to replace their missing tooth, they can also expect the following benefits to accompany:

Ready 2 Smile Dental Group's Perfected Process

Each and every dental service begins the same way-with assessment. The dentist and patient will sit down to discuss that patient’s particular case, as well as what solution is right for them. Once it has been settled that dental implants are an appropriate solution, the first appointment will be made. During this appointment, the dentist will sedate the patient and begin the procedure. This involves making a small incision to create access to the jawbone. The dentist will then screw the titanium alloy rods in, and close up the incision. The patient will then be given 2-3 months to heal. During this time, the jawbone and titanium rods will fuse together, so that the patient’s implant will be able to function like a real tooth. Finally, the patient will get a crown attached to the titanium rod, which will create the physical appearance of a natural tooth. This crown will be chosen based on the size, shape, and color of the patient’s regular, natural teeth so that everything matches.

The Cost of Dental Implants

The cost of dental implants depends on a number of factors, including the dental practice a patient visits to get the implants, the location, the materials used, if the case was unique in any way and/or required extra services in preparation (like a bone graft), etc. However, it is estimated that an implant costs between $600 to $2,000, per implant. Though this may seem like it is a little pricey, it is important to understand that implants have the potential to last for 20+ years. In addition, many dental offices offer financing options to help make services more affordable. At Ready 2 Smile Dental Group, we strive to ensure that our patients get the care they need as soon as possible, without payment being the reason why a patient does not seek out services.

Ensure Your Implant Will Last 20+ Years

In order for any dental solution to last, a patient must provide appropriate care. When it comes to dental implants, the method of care is relatively simple and something that patients already do every single day- brushing and flossing! As long as a patient can provide the same thorough care to their implant that they do for their natural teeth, the implant can last two decades or longer.
