Permanent tooth replacement with natural look, feel, and function.
Dental implants are the gold standard for replacing missing teeth. A titanium implant post is placed in the jawbone to act as an artificial tooth root, topped with a lifelike crown. Dr. Mashaly provides single-tooth implants, multiple-tooth bridges on implants, and full-arch rehabilitation (All-on-4 / All-on-6) for patients who have lost most or all of their teeth. Bone grafting is performed when needed to ensure sufficient bone volume.
Most adults with missing teeth are candidates for dental implants. Sufficient bone volume is required (or bone grafting is performed to build it up). Good general health and non-smoking status improve success rates significantly. Patients with controlled diabetes or other conditions are evaluated on a case-by-case basis.
X-ray and 3D CT scan to evaluate bone volume, density, and anatomy
If bone volume is insufficient, grafting is performed 3–6 months before implant placement
Titanium implant post placed in the jawbone under local anesthesia
3–6 month healing period for implant to fuse with bone
Final lifelike porcelain crown attached to the implant for a permanent result
