Most people choose to get one implant at a time. This allows the body to heal properly and adjust to the new implant. In some cases, people may choose to get multiple implants at once. This may be done if the person is getting multiple teeth extracted and replaced, or if they want to save time and money by having the implants placed all at once.
There are some risks associated with getting multiple implants at once. These risks include infection, nerve damage, and pain. It is important to discuss these risks with your dentist or surgeon before having the procedure done.
Overall, having multiple implants placed at once is a decision that should be made between you and your dental professional. If you have any concerns or questions, be sure to bring them up before making a final decision.
What are the different sizes of implants?
There are many different types and sizes of implants available on the market today. They range from small, to very large. The size that is right for you is dependent on many factors, including your body type, desired look, and size of your existing breasts.
Some women desire a very natural look, and hence choose a small implant. Others want to achieve a more dramatic change, and go for a larger size. Some women opt for an in-between size, depending on their goals.
The most important factor in choosing the right size implant is to consult with a board certified plastic surgeon. He or she will be able to help you choose the size that is right for you, based on your individual goals.
Can you get implants if you have had previous surgery?
It is possible to get implants if you have had previous surgery, but it may not be ideal. If you have had surgery, there is a chance that your body may have adhesions, or bands of scar tissue, that could make it difficult for the implants to fuse to your bone. Additionally, if you have had a lot of surgery in the past, you may have less bone available to support the implants. In this case, your surgeon may recommend a different type of implant, or a different surgical approach.
Frequently Asked Questions
How long do dental implants last?
Most dental implants are expected to last 10-15 years with proper oral hygiene and regular dental examinations.
Are dental implants a good option for You?
If you are considering dental implants for cosmetic purposes, there is a good chance that they could be a suitable option for you. Dental implants are very strong and reliable, and can replace teeth that have been lost or damaged in the past. How Do Dental Implants Work? Dental implants are made of metal and are placed into the jawbone directly below your natural teeth. Metal pins hold the implant in place while your dentist customizes the length and strength of the implant using dental cement. This procedure usually takes around one hour to complete. Once you have completed dental implant surgery, you may feel some mild discomfort during the healing period. However, most patients find that their teeth look and feel much better after receiving dental implants - especially if they were attracted to this treatment because they suffered from tooth loss or damage.
What are dental implants and how do they work?
Dental implants are used to replace teeth that have been lost, damaged, or removed. They are the closest thing that Dr. G can give his patients to healthy and natural-looking teeth. These artificial tooth roots are similar to screws. When they are placed into the jaw, they bond with the natural bone and become a base for supporting artificial teeth, known as crowns.
What are the risks of dental implants?
There is no extra risk of infection from dental implants, just the same risk that comes with your natural teeth if you do not perform proper oral hygiene and get regular check-ups.
What happens if there is not enough bone for dental implants?
If dental implants are not accepted by the surrounding bone then the dental implant might have to be removed and a new surgery performed. In some cases a sinus lift orbone augmentation may be necessary in order to accommodate the dental implant. Dental implant placement can often occur without any prior surgery so this option is only considered if the initial dental implant attempt fails. If a surgery is needed, there may be additional costs as well as healing time which could significantly impact overall financial savings and satisfaction with the outcome.
