Dental Implants and All-on-X

In Hudson Oaks, Texas

Are you missing one, several, or a complete arch of teeth? Dental implants are considered the gold-standard solution for tooth replacement, delivering results second only to natural teeth. At Lush Dental and Implants, we use the latest technology and highest-quality materials to enhance your care and overall experience. We invite you to visit our practice in Hudson Oaks to get on track to a beautiful, functional, and durable smile.

What Is the Dental Implant Process?

We will start by capturing 2D digital images and 3D CBCT scans of your teeth and surrounding structures to evaluate your bone density, nerve pathways, and more. These intricate images help us plan your implant placement with precision. Depending on your needs, we can use your scans to create customized surgical guides to ensure the best possible outcomes for your smile.

On the day of implant placement, we will start by numbing the area and are happy to administer dental sedation, if requested, for your comfort. Our experienced dentist will place one or more implants, depending on your tooth replacement needs. In some cases, we place immediate dentures prepared ahead of your procedure, so you leave our practice with a full set of teeth.

After the area heals and your implants integrate with your jawbone, we will place your final implant restoration. Many of our patients tell us that it's easy to forget that they've had teeth replaced.

What Are Dental Implants?

Dental implants are small titanium posts we place in your jawbone, where they act as replacement tooth roots. The biocompatible material will integrate with the surrounding bone in the following months as the area heals, providing a strong and stable foundation for your replacement teeth.

At Lush Dental and Implants, we offer a range of implant restoration options, including the following:

 

  • Implant-Supported Crowns and Bridges: If you are missing a single tooth, an implant topped by an aesthetic crown can restore your complete, functional smile. If, on the other hand, you are missing two or more teeth in a row, an implant-supported bridge relies on implants for support rather than natural teeth, delivering exceptional stability and function.
  • Implant-Supported Dentures: These removable overdentures offer a secure, stable alternative to traditional removable dentures, especially when it comes to the lower arch, which can be a source of frustration for many patients. Rather than sitting on the gums, your new replacement teeth are secured to several implants, providing exceptional stability and function.
  • All-on-X Implants: These superior restorations rely on as few as four implants per complete arch of teeth for support. We place your implants strategically at angles, taking advantage of any existing bone in the area, allowing us to make the most of available bone and often reducing the need for bone grafting in some patients with bone loss. Our team will place your temporary replacement teeth the same day as your implants, so you don't have to go without teeth for a single day.

What Are the Benefits of Dental Implants?

Dental implants are considered today's standard of care for replacing one, several, or a full arch of missing teeth. Here are some of the benefits they offer:

 

  • Restoring Appearance: Your implant restorations are created to match your smile, providing a virtually flawless appearance.
  • Restoring Chewing Function: Your dental implants will help you chew and enjoy the foods you love once again, with stability and function comparable to your natural teeth (yes, you can even eat that crunchy apple).
  • Preventing Bone Loss: Dental implants act just like natural tooth roots, helping stabilize your jawbone and preventing the bone loss that typically follows tooth loss.
  • Preserving Alignment: Your new implant-supported crown or bridge will prevent any remaining teeth from drifting out of position and shifting toward the gap, maintaining the alignment of your teeth and bite.

Long-Lasting: With excellent oral hygiene and regular dental exams and cleanings, your implants have the potential to last for decades, or even a lifetime.
