Take the Gentle Route to a Complete Smile: Deferred Load Implants
Missing teeth can be a burden, affecting both your ability to chew and your confidence. Deferred load implantology offers a revolutionary solution that prioritizes patient comfort and long-term success. Here's how it works:
The Comfort-First Approach:
- Healing Takes Center Stage: Unlike some implant techniques, deferred load allows ample time for the implant to fully integrate with your jawbone before the crown is placed. This minimizes potential discomfort and promotes optimal healing.
- Reduced Risk of Complications: By minimizing stress on the implant during healing, deferred load can potentially reduce the risk of complications, leading to a smoother recovery.
- Ideal for Certain Patients: This gentle approach is particularly well-suited for patients with softer jawbone or those who prefer a more conservative treatment option.
Your Deferred Load Implant Journey:
- Personalized Planning: Discuss your goals and concerns with your dentist. They’ll assess your jawbone health and create a customized treatment plan using deferred load techniques.
- Implant Placement: Under local anesthesia, the dentist carefully places the implant screw into your jawbone. You’ll likely experience minimal discomfort during this step.
- Healing in Comfort: Over the next few months (typically 3-6), the implant integrates with your jawbone for ultimate stability. You’ll wear a temporary restoration or may need to adjust your diet for optimal healing.
- Smile Completion: Once fully healed, the dentist attaches the final crown to the implant, restoring full functionality and a beautiful aesthetic to your smile.
Things to Keep in Mind:
- A Bit More Time: Deferred load implantology typically takes longer than immediate load options due to the healing phase, but this can lead to a stronger foundation in the long run.
- Temporary Fix: You’ll wear a temporary restoration or may need to adjust your diet during the healing period.
- Long-Term Benefits: By prioritizing healing, this technique can potentially lead to a more successful and durable implant that lasts for years to come.
