About Dental Implants in Canton, GA
Restoring your gorgeous smile is possible with the lasting difference that implant dentistry solutions will have on your oral health. MINT dentistry is excited to offer dental implants with custom restorations to our patients in Canton, GA who want a tooth replacement solution that looks and feels just like natural teeth. An implant is a metal post that's placed in your jawbone (by one of our board-certified oral surgeons) to replace the missing root of your tooth. This post(s) will be attached to a crown, bridge, or denture restoration for a result that looks natural and lasts for years. If you have to replace one or more teeth, make an appointment for a consultation at MINT dentistry in Canton, GA. During your consultation at our modern dental facility, you will learn about our mission to help you reach your goals while maintaining ideal oral wellness.

This process works by inserting the screws (dental implants) into strategic areas on the upper and/or lower arch. When compared to other implant dentures, All-on-4 offers a better fit with as few as four posts. The MINT dentistry team recommends All-on-4 implant-supported dentures if you want a beautifully restored smile minus the hassle or the dietary restrictions that come with traditional dentures.

Am I a Candidate for Dental Implants?
Our MINT dentistry team utilizes dentures, bridges, and crowns supported by implants in order to replace a missing tooth or teeth. You may be a candidate for an implant-supported crown, bridge, or denture if you have one or more traditional restorations but don't like the way it looks or feels. At your dental implant consultation at our office, a board-certified doctor will examine your gums and jawbone to decide if a dental implant will help you achieve your goal smile. You may not be a good candidate for implant dentistry if you have a periodontal condition, use tobacco, or are currently pregnant.
How Are Dental Implants Placed?
Before we create your custom treatment plan, we will make certain of whether or not you will need jawbone or gum grafting. Once you are approved for implants, we will schedule your oral surgery to place the implant post(s). At the start of your implant surgery, a member of our team will show you to the procedure room so you can begin to relax in the massaging treatment chair where you will be given a pair of MINT sunglasses and Beats headphones. Once you are settled in, your anesthesia or sedation will be administered. Then, your board-certified oral surgeon will make an incision(s) in your mouth and fit the metal implant post(s) into your jaw. We will repeat this process until all implants are in place. The gums will then be closed, leaving the top of the implant visible over the top of your gumline. Over the next few months, the implant(s) will start to integrate with your gums and jawbone. While this occurs, a temporary crown, bridge, or denture will be placed to cover the implant(s). As soon as you're healed, our Canton, GA dental professionals will connect your custom restoration to the implant(s), revealing a gorgeous new smile.
Dental Implant Surgery Aftercare
It is common to have some discomfort, bleeding, bruising, and some swelling in your gums and face following your implant-supported denture surgery. A certain degree of these symptoms is completely normal, but please contact us if your symptoms last too long or seem abnormal. Your doctor may prescribe pain medications and antibiotics along with detailed instructions, like what activities to avoid, to help you recover smoothly. Once your implant(s) has healed and your custom restoration has been connected, you should follow a good home oral care routine, including flossing and brushing every day. Follow-up appointments to check your progress will be scheduled. MINT dentistry encourages you to continue scheduling annual dental exams and biannual cleanings to maintain the health and appearance of your restorations and natural teeth for a lifetime.
The MINT Commitment
Depending on the specific type of dental insurance you carry, you might have part of your dental implant procedure and restoration covered. A member of our finance team will contact your insurance provider to clarify your policy and determine your remaining bill. In your initial consultation with the team, we will discuss which payment methods our office accepts and we can give you information on low-interest financing. MINT dentistry is committed to making sure all Canton, GA patients have a luminous smile. If you don't have dental insurance, ask a team member if you are eligible for the MINT Discount Plan, which was created to make it easier to afford necessary treatments, like dental implants.
