Dental Implants Julington Creek
The Gold Standard of Tooth Replacement
Tooth loss can have all sorts of negative implications for your oral health. Not only is your ability to eat and speak greatly impacted, but your jaw is also at risk of suffering from bone resorption (shrinking), and any remaining teeth are at a higher risk of being lost. This is why Dr. Shiyab and our Quality Dental Care team are thrilled to offer dental implants in Julington Creek, which are considered the gold standard of tooth replacement for numerous reasons; to learn more about why, give us a call!

What Are Dental Implants?
Dental implants are small rods made from biocompatible materials such as titanium. These act as replacement roots for the missing teeth and provide incredible stability, which is something that no other tooth restoration does. After they’ve fused with the jaw, these posts can be topped with custom-made restorations that function and feel just like the lost original teeth.
The 4-Step Dental Implant Process
- Initial Dental Implant Consultation – When you meet with Dr. Shiyab to chat about dental implants, he’ll closely examine your mouth and take X-rays to determine if you’re a good candidate. Patients need sufficient jawbone density and be generally healthy to receive dental implants.
- Dental Implant Surgery – Dr. Shiyab and our Quality Dental Care team are thrilled to be able to complete the dental implant surgery in-house! This saves you the trouble of coordinating with multiple dental offices and teams in the Julington Creek area.
- Dental Implant Osseointegration/Abutment – After the surgery, your mouth will need to heal for a few months as the implant rods fuse with your jawbone. Once this happens, we can call you back to attach abutments to your implants, which will support your replacement teeth.
- Delivery of Dental Implant Restoration(s) - We’ll attach custom-made restorations to the implants that will look, feel, and function just like real teeth.
Benefits of Dental Implants
Dental implants don’t just replace your teeth in terms of look and feel—they also impart numerous unique benefits that other restorative options simply can’t offer:
- Since they replace missing tooth roots, they provide stimulation to the jawbone and prevent bone resorption.
- They restore up to 80% of a patient’s original bite force.
- They have a 95% success rate after 10 years.
- When it comes to cleaning and maintenance, they don’t require any special methods or solutions.
- They’re quite cost-effective over time despite their initially higher price point.
