FAQ: How long do dental implants last?

The durability of dental implants depends on factors like bone health and post-procedure oral care. Typically, implants can last a very long time, varying by individual.

Studies show high long-term survival rates, ranging up to 98%, proving implants as a reliable solution for replacing missing or damaged teeth.

Wondering when implants are placed?

Typically, they're inserted a few months after extraction. In some cases, immediate placement right after tooth removal is possible, streamlining the process with minimal delays. However, this approach isn't suitable if there's infection or bone issues.

If your tooth has been missing for a while, adjacent bone support can diminish over time. The natural tooth root stimulates bone growth, and without it, the jawbone may shrink. Up to a third of jawbone thickness can be lost within a year post-extraction. If you lack sufficient bone, grafting may be recommended to ensure the implant has strong support.

A mid-day cookout?! Just what the surgeon ordered 🍔🌭☀️

The first three to six months after a dental implant surgery are known as osseointegration. During this crucial healing time patients are placed on a strict soft foods diet as the implant fully fuses to the jawbone. Dental implants provide a lifetime of quality and improved oral health.

What are Dental Implants?

Dental implants are artificial tooth roots that serve as a permanent and secure base for prosthetic teeth. They are made up of three parts—the implant, abutment, and crown. Their unique design allows them to look, act, and feel like natural teeth.

Bone loss is common for people who have lost teeth or had periodontal disease previously. Our team at Virginia Oral & Facial Surgery is trained and experienced in grafting, or adding bone, to safely secure dental implants. Bone grafting can enhance the strength and structure of the jawbone, promoting new bone growth and ensuring the long-term success and stability of your dental implant.

Third molars, or wisdom teeth, typically start to emerge in your late teens or early twenties. While some people may have wisdom teeth that emerge without any issues, others may experience pain, crowding, or even infections due to lack of space in the mouth.

Virginia Oral & Facial Surgery recommends removing wisdom teeth to prevent potential problems like impaction, decay, and shifting of other teeth.

If you're experiencing discomfort or notice changes in your mouth as your wisdom teeth come in, don't hesitate to schedule your consultation with our doctors!
