What Are Single Tooth Implants & Bridges?
A single tooth implant is a titanium post surgically placed into the jawbone as a sturdy replacement for a missing tooth root. This provides a stable foundation for a custom-made dental crown, mimicking your original tooth's natural look and function.

How It Works
Our team of Riverpark Dental of Howell dental professionals follows a meticulous process for single-tooth implants. Here's what you can expect from your single-tooth implant consultation at our dental office in Howell:
Initial Consultation
Your journey begins with a comprehensive consultation. Our team of dentists will assess your oral health, take X-rays, and discuss your specific needs and expectations. If a single tooth implant is deemed optimal, we'll develop a personalized treatment plan.
Treatment Planning
Our team will meticulously plan the procedure before implant placement. This involves considering the precise location for implant placement, the angle, and the depth, ensuring optimal aesthetics and functionality.
Local Anesthesia
On the day of the procedure, you will be administered local anesthesia to ensure your comfort during the process. If needed, sedation options can also be discussed to alleviate any anxiety.
Implant Placement
The dental implant is a small titanium post surgically placed into the jawbone at the site of the missing tooth. This post is a substitute for the natural tooth root and provides a stable foundation for the replacement tooth.
Healing Period (Osseointegration)
After the implant is placed, a critical phase follows, known as osseointegration. This is when the implant fuses with the surrounding jawbone, creating a durable bond. This process usually takes a few months, during which a temporary crown may be placed.
Abutment Placement
Once osseointegration is complete, an abutment, a connector piece, is attached to the implant. This serves as a link between the implant and the final dental restoration.
Final Restoration Placement
The final step involves securing the custom restoration, usually a dental crown, onto the abutment. This completes the process, providing a functional and aesthetically pleasing replacement for your missing tooth.
