Dental Implants: A Permanent, Functional Solution for Missing Teeth
Losing a tooth can impact your confidence, your ability to chew, and the long-term health of your entire mouth. At Evident, we believe the solution should be as strong, functional, and beautiful as the tooth nature gave you. Based on decades of scientific evidence, dental implants are the gold standard for tooth replacement, and our precision-based approach ensures a seamless and lasting result.
What is a Dental Implant? A Three-Part Solution
Unlike a bridge or denture that sits on top of the gums, a dental implant is a true tooth replacement that starts at the foundation. It mimics the structure of a natural tooth root and is composed of three parts:
The Implant:
A small, screw-shaped post made from biocompatible materials (like titanium or zirconia) that is surgically placed into the jawbone, where it acts as a new tooth root.
The Abutment:
A connector piece that is attached to the top of the implant, providing a sturdy base for the final restoration.
The Crown:
The visible part of the tooth. A custom-made, metal-free crown is attached to the abutment, perfectly matched to the color and shape of your surrounding teeth.
The Evident Advantage: An Evidence-Based Approach to Implant Dentistry
A successful dental implant is the result of meticulous planning and precision execution. Our commitment to functional, biological dentistry sets the stage for predictable, lifelong success.
3D Surgical Planning
Your safety and success are our priorities. We begin with a 3D Cone Beam CT (CBCT) scan, which provides a detailed digital map of your jawbone, nerves, and sinus cavities. This allows us to digitally plan the exact position, depth, and angle of your implant for maximum safety and an ideal functional outcome.
We offer the best, scientifically-proven materials to suit your specific biological needs.
Titanium Implants: The industry standard for decades, with an extensive track record of success and excellent integration with bone.
Ceramic (Zirconia) Implants: A 100% metal-free alternative. These tooth-colored implants are perfect for patients with metal sensitivities or those seeking the most aesthetic and holistic option.
Ceramic (Zirconia) Implants: The Metal-Free, Holistic Choice
For patients seeking a solution that is in maximum harmony with the body, we are proud to offer zirconia dental implants. Zirconia is a high-performance ceramic that offers unique advantages:
100% Metal-Free:
The ideal choice for individuals with known metal allergies or sensitivities.
Excellent Aesthetics:
The white, tooth-like color of the implant eliminates any possibility of a gray hue showing through thin gum tissue, providing a more natural look from the start.
Holistic & Biocompatible:
Zirconia is an inert, non-corrosive material that is exceptionally well-tolerated by the body's tissues.
Guided Implant Surgery
Using our 3D plan, we often create a custom surgical guide. This template fits precisely over your teeth during surgery and guides the implant into its pre-planned position with unparalleled accuracy. This minimally invasive technique improves safety and often speeds up recovery time.
Our work isn’t finished until your new tooth is functioning in perfect harmony with your bite. The final crown is designed not just to look good, but to support a healthy, stable, and comfortable chewing system.
The procedure itself is comfortable. We use effective local anesthesia to ensure you feel no pain. Most patients report that the recovery is much easier than they anticipated, with manageable discomfort similar to a simple extraction.
How long do dental implants last?
With proper planning, placement, and care, dental implants are designed to last a lifetime. The success rate for dental implants is extremely high, making them the most reliable long-term solution for missing teeth.
Am I a candidate for dental implants?
The most important requirement for a dental implant is sufficient healthy jawbone to anchor it. If bone has been lost, a bone grafting procedure can often be performed to create the necessary foundation for a successful implant. Our 3D scan will allow us to make a precise determination.
