A Stronger Smile Starts with Dental Implants

Your smile is often the first thing people notice about you, and it can shape how they perceive you in an instant.

At NuSmile, we understand that tooth loss affects not only your oral health but also your confidence, comfort, and emotional well-being. Dental implants in Saratoga Springs, UT, provide a durable, natural-looking solution with lifelong benefits unmatched by any other tooth replacement option!

What are Dental Implants?

Dental implants are biocompatible titanium posts that serve as artificial tooth roots, fusing with the jawbone to create a strong, stable foundation for restorations. After the integration process is complete, a built-in or separate abutment connects dental implants to a zirconia crown, a bridge, or a full-arch fixed denture.

The Unrivaled Benefits of Dental Implants

Dental implants are the only tooth replacement solution that restores missing teeth from the roots to the crowns. With unmatched stability, comfort, and versatility, dental implants provide the look, feel, function, and permanence of healthy natural teeth.

Dental Implants Restore All Degrees of Tooth Loss

Single
Implants

Whether you lost a tooth to severe decay, gum disease, or injury, tooth loss isn’t just a cosmetic issue—it can lead to serious oral health complications over time. A single dental implant in Saratoga Springs, UT, prevents the shifting of adjacent teeth while reducing the risk of harmful bacteria and tooth decay in those teeth. In addition, a single dental implant doesn’t require the modification and crowning of two healthy teeth, as a traditional dental bridge does.

Dental
Bridges

Dental implants serve as anchors to replace two or more missing teeth in a row. This eliminates the need to modify healthy teeth, while delivering greater longevity and stronger chewing force than traditional bridges. An implant-retained bridge also reduces the risk of gum recession, a common issue associated with traditional bridges.

Implant-Supported Denture

Unlike traditional dentures that rest on the gums, implant-supported dentures are firmly anchored with implants inserted directly into your jawbone. This provides a sturdy, secure fit that closely mimics the natural feel and function of your original teeth. An implant-supported denture can be fabricated as a fixed prosthesis or removable overdenture, although the latter requires nightly removal/cleaning.

Full-Mouth Dental Implants

All-on-Four full-mouth dental implants in Saratoga Springs, UT, provide the ability to place temporary teeth the same day as implant surgery. Slightly longer back dental implants are tilted at a 45-degree angle to take advantage of areas with the naturally healthiest bone, while front implants are placed straight. Getting full-mouth dental implants with the Yomi® dental robot delivers greater precision and a quicker path to a restored smile!

This cutting-edge technology has been proven to minimize soft-tissue damage and achieve greater surgical precision. Robotic-assisted dental implant surgery provides a streamlined implant experience and peace of mind that you’ll achieve the best possible results! In addition, our on-site dental lab enables the creation of superb zirconia same-day crowns and bridges.

What to Expect When You Get Dental Implants at NuSmile

With high-tech tools and techniques, Dr. Thompson can complete your dental implant procedure in about 2 months. This reduces your treatment timeline by about 50% compared to other dental practices! Furthermore, some patients can get dental implants in Saratoga Springs, UT, the same day as their free consultation or the next day.

Complimentary Consultation

During your free consultation at NuSmile, Dr. Thompson will examine your teeth and take digital X-rays and a CBCT scan to determine the health of your underlying jawbone. In addition, our team will discuss your medical and dental history and present different tooth replacement options and associated costs.

Preparatory Dentistry

In some cases, Dr. Thompson can perform tooth extractions and bone grafting during the same appointment as dental implant placement. The good news is that our Yomi robot enables more patients to skip prep work and still experience complication-free healing and recovery.

Dental Implant Placement

In addition to local anesthesia, we offer sedation dentistry to ensure your comfort and alleviate any dental anxiety. The Yomi robot provides pre-calibrated angles and positioning, enabling accurate implant placement with error-free precision. Minimal swelling and any postsurgical discomfort can be alleviated with over-the-counter pain relievers.

Temporary Restoration

Based on your final restoration design, we’ll fit you with a temporary crown, bridge, or teeth fabricated right here at our on-site dental lab. This eliminates the struggle of another day with missing teeth. You’ll schedule periodic follow-up visits to make sure healing is progressing as expected.

Final Restoration

It takes 3–6 months for dental implants to fuse with the underlying jawbone in a process called osseointegration. Once this is complete, you’ll receive your custom-made permanent prosthetic. After ensuring you’re fully satisfied with the results, you can walk out the door and enjoy your fully functional and beautiful new smile!

Understanding the True Value of Dental Implants

Natural Look and Feel

When anchored by dental implants, a crown, bridge, or full arch zirconia prosthesis from Dr. Thompson will feel indistinguishable from your natural teeth. Dr. Thompson recommends implants, especially if you need a full-arch restoration, because their stability and function are dramatically better than those of conventional removable dentures.

Long-Lasting Results

Titanium dental implants can last a lifetime when placed by a skilled, technologically savvy implant dentist like Dr. Thompson. While removable prosthetic teeth need frequent repairs and replacement, implant-supported restorations can deliver superb function for decades or a lifetime with professional maintenance.

Better Oral Health

Your jawbone relies on stimulation from your tooth roots to remain strong and healthy. Even one missing tooth can cause atrophy of the jawbone in that area. Jaw atrophy can affect surrounding teeth and lead to a sunken facial appearance. Dental implants from Dr. Thompson serve as tooth roots, stimulating your jawbone and keeping it healthy.

Dental Implant FAQs

No matter the state of your mouth, you’re likely a candidate for dental implants at NuSmile. With that said, you may require preparatory bone grafting, tooth extractions, periodontal care, or other treatments to qualify. The good news is that the All-on-Four full-mouth dental implants protocol often eliminates the need for bone grafting.

Patients who have had a tooth extracted often tell us that implant placement is less painful than that. The Yomi robot enables ultra-precise placement, thereby reducing discomfort associated with procedures. In addition, sedation dentistry can alleviate dental anxiety and make the dental implant procedure far more relaxing than you likely anticipated!
