Introduction

Welcome to the FAQ page of Regency Dental - your trusted dental practice in Port St. Lucie, FL, led by Dr. Robert Miller, DDS. Here, you will find answers to some of the most frequently asked questions about dental implants and other dental services we offer. Our goal is to provide you with comprehensive information to help you make informed decisions about your oral health.

1. What are dental implants?

Dental implants are artificial tooth roots made of titanium that are surgically placed into your jawbone to support replacement teeth or dental bridges. They provide a long-lasting and stable foundation for a natural-looking smile. Dental implants are an excellent solution for patients with missing teeth or those who require tooth extraction.

2. How is the dental implant procedure performed?

The dental implant procedure involves several steps. First, a thorough examination and evaluation of your oral health will be conducted by Dr. Robert Miller. If you are a suitable candidate, the implant placement surgery will be scheduled. During this surgery, the implant will be placed into the jawbone. Over time, the implant fuses with the bone through a process called osseointegration. After the implant has fully integrated, an abutment is placed on top to connect the implant to the replacement tooth or dental bridge.

3. What are the benefits of dental implants?

Dental implants offer numerous benefits:

  • Improved appearance: Dental implants look and feel like natural teeth, enhancing your smile and facial aesthetics.
  • Enhanced comfort: Implants become a part of your jawbone, eliminating discomfort often associated with removable dentures.
  • Better oral health: Unlike dental bridges, dental implants do not require adjacent teeth to be altered, improving long-term oral health.
  • Improved speech: Dental implants allow you to speak with confidence, without worrying about dentures slipping or affecting your speech.
  • Improved chewing and eating: They function like natural teeth, enabling you to enjoy your favorite foods without any restrictions.

4. How long do dental implants last?

Dental implants are designed to be a permanent solution for missing teeth. With proper oral care and regular dental check-ups, they can last a lifetime. However, like natural teeth, implants also require good oral hygiene practices and regular maintenance to ensure their longevity.

5. How much do dental implants cost?

The cost of dental implants can vary depending on several factors, such as the number of implants needed, any additional procedures required, and your individual treatment plan. During your initial consultation, our team will provide you with a detailed cost estimate and discuss available financing options to make your dental implant treatment affordable.

6. Are dental implants suitable for everyone?

Dental implants are a highly successful treatment option for the majority of individuals with missing teeth. However, certain medical conditions, such as uncontrolled diabetes or active gum disease, may affect the success of the implant procedure. It is best to schedule a consultation with Dr. Robert Miller to determine your suitability for dental implant treatment.

7. Does the dental implant procedure hurt?

Thanks to modern techniques and anesthesia options, the dental implant procedure is typically well-tolerated by patients. Local anesthesia will be administered to ensure a painless experience during the surgery. Any post-operative discomfort can be effectively managed with prescribed pain medication.

8. How long does the dental implant process take?

The duration of the dental implant process can vary depending on several factors, including the complexity of your case and your individual healing ability. In general, the entire process, from implant placement to the final restoration, can take a few months. During your consultation, Dr. Robert Miller will provide you with a personalized treatment timeline.
