What Types Of Tooth Implants In Chicago, IL Can I Replace My Missing Teeth With?

When people have one or more missing teeth, they may get them replaced with dental bridges or traditional dentures. While these types of tooth replacement options do work, they are not permanent or highly restorative tooth replacement options. Luckily at a dedicated and caring dental professional’s office, people can replace any number of missing teeth with trusted and reliable tooth replacement options.

The types of tooth replacement options people can get treated with are zygomatic dental implants, Implant in a Day, All-On-X dental implants, and overdentures. Sedation dentistry can also be administered to the patient, so they have a comfortable and anxiety-free tooth implant surgery experience. 

These dental implant options are custom-made to give patients the exact new smile that they want and need. The following explains in more detail how each dental implant option gives patients the new smile of their dreams. 

Zygomatic Dental Implants:

When people have a large amount of jawbone density loss, a quality dental professional may not make them a candidate for tooth implants. This is because a typical dental implant will require the patient to have a sufficient amount of jawbone density to support it.

While a bone grafting procedure can remedy most cases of extensive jawbone density loss, zygomatic dental implants can be another way for patients with weakened bone to replace their teeth without having to undergo the bone grafting procedure. A zygomatic dental implant relies on the use of especially long dental implant posts that are placed into the cheek bones rather than in the jaw.

As long as a patient has strong, healthy bone in their cheeks, they can be considered a candidate for zygomatic tooth implants. Since zygomatic dental implants depend on the cheek bones, they are only available to patients who want to replace the teeth in their upper jaw.

Implant in a Day:

When people need to immediately replace their missing teeth, they will want to get expertly treated with the Implant in a Day tooth implant option. Implant in a Day is a restorative tooth replacement option that is especially good for those with missing teeth in their smile zone. 

With Implant in a Day, a knowledgeable dental professional can attach a temporary prosthesis (tooth crown) to the dental implant post immediately after the dental implant post has been surgically placed in their jawbone. With Implant in a Day, patients get a beautiful and functional new smile in one day.

Even those who struggle with jawbone density loss may be candidates for Implant in a Day. In those situations, the dental professional may be able to treat the patient with a bone grafting treatment first before their dental implant posts are surgically placed.

All-On-X Tooth Implants:

For those who have a full arch of missing teeth, they can get those teeth replaced with All-On-X dental implants. After the dental professional determines how many dental implants the patient needs to restore their smile with this full arch tooth replacement option, they can strategically place them at the right angle and depth in their jawbone. Advanced technologies can be used during the surgery to make sure each dental implant post is accurately placed. 

The benefit of the All-On-X dental implant option is that it streamlines all aspects of the full arch tooth replacement process, from the consultation to the placement of the final prosthesis. With All-On-X dental implants, patients will have a full arch of new teeth that will let them eat, speak, and smile properly for years to come.

Overdentures:

For those who have missing teeth or are tired of having to deal with the uncomfortableness or instability of traditional dentures, then overdentures can be an appealing upgrade. Overdentures are a type of tooth implant option that uses two or more dental implants to stabilize a denture in the patient’s mouth. 

After the dental implants have been securely placed in the patient’s jawbone, their jawbone will heal, and the dental implant posts will osseointegrate (fuse) with the jawbone as well. Once the jawbone is healed and the dental implant posts have fully fused with it, the denture can be attached to them. With overdentures, patients won’t have to deal with messy dental adhesives, unstable new teeth, or the inability to live their life normally.
