Dental Implants Specialist Serving Bay Area, San Jose, CA

Many suffer from tooth loss due to dental issues like tooth decay, periodontal disease, or dental injury. With new technology and advanced improvements, dental implants are available to those who are dealing with the above. Dental implants are a replacement for tooth roots. Dental implants offer a strong base for permanent replacement teeth which are made to match the patient’s natural teeth.

Dental implants offer many benefits to patients who may need them including:

• Improved appearance
Dental implants look and feel like your natural teeth and are customarily designed to fuse with the bone and become permanent.
 
• Improved speech
Removable dentures can cause your teeth to slip out when trying to talk, causing you to mumble or even slur your words. Dental implants give you the confidence that you can speak without the worry of your teeth slipping out.
 
• Improved comfort
Since they are permanent, they act like your real teeth.
 
• Makes eating easier
Removable dentures can cause issues when eating. Dental implants function like your own teeth, which allows you to eat your favorite foods easier with more comfort, and confidence, and without any pain.
 
• Improved self-esteem
Dental implants allow you to smile again and feel better.
 
• Improved overall oral health
Dental implants offer improved overall oral health, as they are not tooth-supported like bridges, meaning they do not alter the implant or other teeth, leaving your other teeth intact. Dental implants also offer easier access between the teeth, which also offers improved overall health.
 
• Durability
Dental implants offer dependability and durability that lasts for many years. Depending on how dental implants are taken care of, they can last a lifetime.
 
• Convenience
Removable dentures offer the ability to remove them at will but it can be embarrassing if the denture comes off on its own at an inconvenient time. This is why dental implants which eliminate this embarrassment as well as the need for any messy adhesives to keep them in place are suitable and preferred by many patients.

Patients who are healthy enough to undergo any routine dental extraction or oral surgery and have healthy gums and sufficient healthy bone are great candidates for dental implants.
 
Dr. Victoria Vuong DDS recommends that patient be committed to their oral hygiene and maintain regular dental visits.
 
Patients who deal with uncontrolled chronic disorders like diabetes or heart disease, patients who have gone through radiation therapy to the head/neck region, and if who are heavy smokers need to be evaluated on a case-by-case basis by Dr. Victoria Vuong DDS. As these cases are sensitive.
 

Dental implants have a high success rate, typically ranging from 95% to 98%, making them one of the most reliable solutions for replacing missing teeth. The success of an implant largely depends on factors such as the patient’s oral health, the quality of the jawbone, and the expertise of the dentist performing the procedure. With proper care and maintenance, dental implants can last for many years, with some even lasting a lifetime. 

The process of dental implant placement involves the insertion of a titanium post into the jawbone, where it fuses with the bone in a process called osseointegration. This strong bond ensures the stability and durability of the implant, providing a secure foundation for the artificial tooth. For patients with sufficient bone density, the success rate is generally higher.

However, certain factors can influence the success of dental implants, including smoking, gum disease, and underlying health conditions such as diabetes. It is essential for patients to maintain good oral hygiene, avoid habits that could damage the implant, and attend regular dental checkups to ensure the long-term success of their implants.
