What is a dental implant?

A dental implant is a prosthetic tooth root used to anchor a dental crown in place to replace a missing tooth.

Dental Implants have a 98% success rate.

Why should I choose a dental implant?

Next to having your natural teeth, dental implants are the next best option.

Dental implants are designed to mimic the natural structure of the human tooth. The three-part system acts, looks and functions like a real tooth.  The implant itself is made of high grade medical titanium that is biocompatible. That means that over time, the implant fuses with the bone tissue creating a long lasting bond that helps prevent bone loss, gum recession, tooth shifting, and additional tooth loss.  The dental crown is attached to the implant using an abutment. The crown is custom designed and fabricated to blend seamlessly with your smile so that no one will even be able to distinguish your fake tooth, from your real teeth.

Dental implants can also be used to secure a dental bridge or denture. 

For many patients, the addition of dental implants to anchor a denture or bridge is life changing. What was once a bulky ill-fitted device prone to slippage becomes a secure, beautiful dental restoration that allows for a confident smile and diet without restriction.

Are dental implants right for me?

Dental implants are suitable and a highly successful option for replacing missing teeth for most patients. To know if you are the right candidate for a dental implant or if you are interested in securing your denture with implants, contact Manassas Smiles to request a dental implant consultation with implant dentist Dr. Hassan.  A thorough analysis of your bone structure and overall oral health will help Dr. Hassan create treatment plan options tailored to your unique dental needs.

Dental implants require substantial healthy bone and gum tissue for long-term success. If your gum or bone structure has been compromised due to gum disease or tooth loss, there are options to rebuild and restore your oral health so that you may receive dental implants.  For other edentulous patients, different styles of implants may be considered to eliminate the need for bone grafting or gum surgery by using innovative pre-treatment planning and small dental implants.

Are you missing teeth?

Replacing your missing teeth with a dental implant secured restoration can help you enjoy a healthier life. If you are missing teeth schedule an implant consultation with Dr. Nadder Hassan at his Manassas, VA area dentist office. Dr. Hassan welcomes patients from many Northern VA communities, including Centreville, Manassas Park, Strasberg, Clifton and Warrenton.
