Dental Implant Procedure

Although dental implants have been around for hundreds of years, in recent decades their popularity has soared as replacements for missing teeth. Today, implants are usually made from titanium, as this metal bonds well with your natural bone.

Our team will place a tooth implant in your jawbone using 3-D imaging and a computer-guided procedure. Both Dr. Davis and Dr. Oslica are experienced in dental implants. You can rest assured that your treatment will be in good hands!

After your procedure, the implant will begin to chemically fuse with the bone in a process called osseointegration. Your jawbone will actually begin to grow around the implant, holding it securely in place and creating a sturdy base for new replacement teeth.

Dental Implant Options

At Excel Dental in Ozark, we offer you a variety of ways to use dental implants to replace missing teeth, including:

  • Single Implant Crown – We’ll attach a beautiful crown to an implant, giving you back a strong and healthy smile. Your new tooth will look so natural, nobody will guess it hasn’t always been there.
  • Implant-Supported Bridge – This type of bridge anchors to two or more implants to fill in the gaps in your smile. Your bridge will make biting and chewing much easier again.
  • Implant-Supported Dentures – Your new dentures will anchor to a sturdy bar that transfers the forces of biting and chewing to your implants rather than your gums. This makes them our most comfortable denture.
  • Full-Arch Implants – We’ll use a minimal number of implants (either four or six) to anchor an entire arch of new replacement teeth. You’ll leave our office with new teeth and ready to face the world.
  • Mini Dental Implants – We can sometimes use mini dental implants if you’re not a good candidate for standard dental implants. If you already have mini implants and need to repair or replace one, we can do that as well.
  • Full-Mouth Reconstruction – Using advanced tools and our dentists’ skills, we can place an entire mouth full of beautiful and functional new teeth. It will be like you never lost your teeth in the first place!
