Implants with Precision: Guided Implant Placement
Dr. Chris believes in utilizing the latest advancements in dental technology to ensure the best possible outcomes for our patients. Our practice features guided implant placement, a sophisticated technique that sets us apart. With advanced 3D imaging, we gain a comprehensive understanding of your jawbone structure, nerve pathways, and ideal implant positioning before the procedure even begins. We're also equipped to share our findings with you, offering complete transparency every step of the way.
Advanced treatment planning leads to:
- Increased Accuracy: Precisely placing the implant in the optimal location for stability and long-term success.
- Minimized Risk: Minimizing the chance of complications and ensuring a smoother procedure.
- Faster Recovery: Often resulting in less invasive surgery and faster healing times.
- Natural Look and Feel: Ensuring the final restoration is in the perfect position to look and function just like a natural tooth.
At Sandia View Family Dental, Dr. Chris and his team offer a selection of dental implant options to meet your needs, including:
Single Dental Implants
If you're missing just one tooth, a single dental implant provides a stable and independent foundation for a custom-crafted crown. This prevents the need to alter adjacent healthy teeth, as is required with traditional bridges, and helps to preserve the natural bone structure in the area. A single implant looks, feels, and functions just like your own natural tooth, restoring your smile seamlessly.
Full-Mouth Dental Implants
For individuals missing all or most of their teeth in an upper or lower arch, full mouth dental implants offer a transformative solution. Multiple implants are strategically placed to support a complete set of custom-designed prosthetic teeth. This provides unparalleled stability, allowing you to eat any foods you desire, speak with confidence, and smile without hesitation. Full mouth implants offer a long-term, fixed solution that closely mimics the feel and function of a full set of natural teeth.
Implant-Retained Dentures
Experience the best of both worlds with implant-retained dentures. This option combines the affordability of dentures with the stability of dental implants. A few strategically placed implants securely anchor a custom-made denture, eliminating the slipping, rocking, and discomfort often associated with traditional dentures. Implant-retained dentures provide significantly improved chewing ability, speech clarity, and overall comfort, enhancing your quality of life.
All-On-4 Dental Implants
Sandia View Family Dental is proud to offer All-On-4 dental implants, a revolutionary technique that can often provide you with a full arch of new, functional teeth in just one day! This innovative approach utilizes only four strategically placed dental implants to support a complete set of custom-designed prosthetic teeth.
All-On-4 is an excellent solution for patients with severe tooth decay or breakage, advanced gum disease (gingivitis or periodontitis), dental injury, or those who are currently wearing or facing the need for dentures. These implants function much like natural teeth, offering a permanent, stable alternative to traditional dentures that provide a restored smile in a single visit.
