How Do Dental Implants Work?

Dental implants consist of three key components that work together to create a seamless, natural-looking restoration: 

  1. Artificial Root: A small titanium post is surgically placed into your jawbone, where it fuses with the bone to create a stable foundation.
  2. Abutment: This connector piece attaches the implant post to the restoration, ensuring a secure and durable fit.
  3. Restoration: Custom-made crowns, bridges, or dentures are designed to match your natural teeth and are attached to the implant. 

The result? A smile that looks, feels, and functions like your own.

Dental implants are a long-term solution for replacing missing teeth. They consist of a titanium post that is surgically placed into the jawbone to act as an artificial tooth root, topped with a custom crown that looks and functions like a natural tooth. At Judd Dentistry in Columbia, Maryland, dental implants are designed to restore both the appearance and function of your smile.

The entire process typically takes 3-6 months, depending on your
healing and bone health.

Most adults with one or more missing teeth and good overall oral health are potential candidates for dental implants. Adequate jawbone density is important for supporting the implant, though bone grafting may be an option if bone loss has occurred. At Judd Dentistry in Columbia, Maryland, our team evaluates each patient individually to determine if dental implants are the right solution.

Dental implants provide stability, strength, and durability that other tooth replacement options, like dentures or bridges, may not offer. They help preserve jawbone health, improve chewing and speaking, and restore confidence in your smile. Patients at Judd Dentistry in Columbia, MD, often choose implants because they look natural, feel comfortable, and can last a lifetime with proper care.

Implants are more durable, natural-looking, and preserve your
