Dental Implants Mean Options!

Modern dental implants are more than single-tooth replacements. Today, there are options. Below, your dentist in Annapolis, MD, provides information to help you make the best choice for your smile.

A Single Dental Implant

Single dental implants mean one root replacement, topped with a custom dental crown. This is ideal if you have only one or two missing teeth.

All-on-4® Implant Dentures

Patients choose this option if they have complete tooth loss. Their dentist attaches a custom denture to the jaw using approximately four implants.

Hybrid Dental Implants

Hybrid dental implants typically mean we use a number of implants to attach a denture, partial, or bridge to the jawbone. It may be up to six or fewer than four.

All-on-4® and Hybrid Dental Implants: How They Work

Talk To a Top Dental Implant Dentist in Annapolis, MD!Dental implants are not replacement teeth. Rather, they are replacement roots. These roots integrate into the jawbone, creating a stable foundation for a crown or prosthetic.

  • All-on-4®:  For this method, your dentist uses approximately four dental implants to secure an arch of restoration teeth to the jaw. All-on-4® means you don’t have to purchase a dental implant for every lost tooth. Yet, you enjoy the stability and beauty of implant dentistry.
  • Hybrid Dental Implants: Hybrid dental implants may use up to six dental implants to secure an arch of restoration teeth. Your dentist may also consider an implant bridge to close the gap when only a few teeth are missing. An implant bridge requires one or more dental implants.

The Implant-Supported Denture Process

First, Dr. Keith Polizois has you come for a tooth replacement consultation to determine your candidacy. This consultation decides whether you’re suitable for implants, the final costs, and what to expect.

Next, if you proceed with implants, we use image-guided technology to plan your surgery. This is performed under local anesthesia and is never painful. If you are still nervous, ask Dr. Polizois about our sedation dentistry options.

Finally, after an implant integration period, Dr. Polizois attaches your replacement teeth or custom prosthetic to the implants. From here, you can enjoy the benefits of your new smile without eating restrictions.

Frequently Asked Questions

If adequate bone is available, implants can help secure a loose denture so it doesn’t move. In addition to being terrific anchors for stabilizing the denture, they can increase chewing force for a denture. A denture that is held in by an implant can have up to 10 times the chewing force of a traditional denture.
