What Is a Single Tooth Implant?

A single tooth implant consists of a tooth root replacement topped with a dental crown. Single implants differ from implant-supported dentures, which require up to six replacement roots for stability.

Steps for Single Tooth Implants in Medina, OH

  1. Tooth Replacement Assessment — Your dentist has you come to our dental office for a consultation, which includes an exam, conversation, and answers to your questions. This visit determines candidacy, costs, and whether you’ll need pretreatments.
  2. Single Implant Placement — On implant surgery day, your dentist administers anesthesia and then places your new tooth root into the jawbone. This is followed by an integration period.
  3. Dental Implant Crowning — The final step is topping your dental implant with a crown. After custom crown placement, you can enjoy your meals without restriction!

Dental implants require the same care as natural teeth, so continue brushing, flossing, and visiting the dentist. And always call us if you have questions or notice oral health changes.
