Dental Implant Restorations in Cypress, TX
What are Dental Implants?
Dental implants are considered today to be the gold standard of dental replacement options. Luck Dental Care offers superior dental implants in Cypress, Texas & surrounding communities.
Made out of the incredibly strong metal known as titanium, dental implants provide a strong foundation for replacement teeth that are made to look, feel and function like teeth while also supporting the surrounding tissue and bones that hold out teeth in place. They can be topped by permanent individual crowns or connected to larger devices such as a removable denture.
How are Dental Implants Placed?
Placing dental implants requires an outpatient procedure that surgically implants the titanium post into the bone. Implanting into the bone not only encourages continued bone growth and strength but also allows the implant to fuse with the bone and create a permanent bond adding to the stability of the replacement tooth.
The fact that a dental implant fuses to the bone makes dental implants the closest thing to a natural tooth because it stands as an individual tooth without having to alter nearby teeth and has great stability. This process of fusing between the dental implant and bone is called “osseointegration.” This “artificial tooth root” serves as the foundation for an implant crown, bridge, or denture.

What Happens if a Dental Implant is Damaged?
Here at Luck Dental Care, we are often able to repair a current implant instead of needing to replace it fully. In some cases, however, implant replacement is necessary. This can be due to extensive damage that has reduced the tooth’s appearance and ability to function. The plus side to needing a complete replacement is that new models could provide a better look, improved function, and enhanced comfort over the implant(s) you currently have.
Whether you’ve had repairs to your implants or need a complete replacement, we recommend continual check-ups to assess your gums and bone density to assess the surrounding areas associated with your implant.
