A dental implant is a specifically designed replacement for one or more missing teeth. Typically made of titanium, implants are surgically inserted into the jawbone where they integrate with the bone over time. At Dental Studio of Melissa, Dr. Lena Khan offers dental implant restoration services, placing single crowns, bridges, or full dentures over healed implants to restore both function and aesthetics for patients in Melissa, TX.
Dental implant restoration becomes necessary when you are missing one or more natural teeth. Beyond cosmetic concerns, tooth loss can impact your ability to eat, chew, and speak comfortably. Dental implants provide a long-lasting solution that improves both your smile and quality of life. Ideal candidates have healthy bone structure where the implant posts will be placed, and in cases of bone loss, bone grafting or a sinus lift may be recommended to ensure successful placement.
The process involves several steps. Local anesthesia is administered for comfort, then the titanium implant post is securely placed in the jawbone and the gums are sutured closed. Over the next three to six months, the implant undergoes osseointegration, fusing with the bone to create a stable foundation. Once integrated, a custom-made crown, bridge, or denture is attached to blend seamlessly with your natural teeth. Regular follow-up visits monitor the health and stability of the implant for long-term success.

If someone told me I'd have a 5-star experience at a dentist of all places, I'd call them a liar. Well, I just had two.

I needed dental work that I had put off for years because I was terrified of the dentist. I thought it was going to be so painful, but it wasn't.
