Your smile is a vital part of your identity and social interactions, and tooth loss from trauma, decay, or periodontal disease can impact your physical and emotional well-being. Full mouth dental implants and individual dental implants play a crucial role by preventing dental shifting, reducing bacterial buildup, restoring your natural bite, and preserving jawbone integrity and facial structure. Beyond functionality, implants significantly enhance confidence and overall quality of life, offering versatility, durability, exceptional functionality, and long-term benefits unmatched by other tooth replacement options.
Dr. Sarah Balaster understands the challenges faced by those with periodontal disease who may doubt their eligibility for full arch implants. She is dedicated to using advanced techniques and technology to address these concerns effectively. By sanitizing the implant site thoroughly before placement, Dr. Balaster ensures a beautiful smile and a durable foundation, empowering patients to reclaim their smiles with confidence and vitality.
Dental implants have three parts: screw-like implant posts fabricated from biocompatible titanium that serve as artificial tooth root replacements. The posts fuse with your underlying bone over a few months, anchoring the dental restoration.
After the fusion process is complete, abutment posts are inserted into the posts to enable permanent attachment of a dental crown, bridge, or full mouth dental implant prosthesis. In some cases, abutments are built into the implant posts rather than being a separate part.
The BLAST protocol is a revolutionary approach in implant dentistry to enhance dental implants’ success and longevity. This innovative technique focuses on thoroughly sanitizing the implant site before the actual placement of the implant. Doing so effectively prevents any residual traces of periodontal disease from adhering to the new implant.
This proactive measure promotes a cleaner implant environment and reduces the risk of reinfection or complications from previous periodontal issues. Ultimately, the BLAST protocol ensures that patients undergoing implant surgery can enjoy a healthier and more secure foundation for their new smile.
Patients seek Dr. Balaster’s expertise to restore their smiles after losing teeth due to oral health issues such as periodontal disease or decay, often resulting in infections. However, these same conditions that cause tooth loss can complicate the placement of implants. Precision in placing implants at the bone level ensures optimal stability and integration while utilizing angulated screw channels enhances both aesthetics and functionality.
Careful management of soft tissue supports proper healing and reduces the risk of complications. Timing plays a crucial role, allowing for strategic planning to maximize the success of implant procedures. Our advanced BLAST protocol consistently delivers exceptional results, offering durable, functional, and aesthetically pleasing dental implants that endure over time.
