Implants
At MGM Clinic in Enfield, we understand that missing teeth can impact not only your appearance but also your overall oral health and confidence. Dental implants offer a long-term solution to restore missing teeth with a natural-looking, functional alternative that mimics the feel and appearance of your original teeth. Whether you’ve lost a single tooth or several, dental implants can help you regain a full, beautiful smile.
A dental implant is a titanium post that is surgically placed into the jawbone, acting as a replacement root for a missing tooth. Once the implant has fully integrated with the bone, a custom-made crown, bridge, or denture is placed on top to restore the tooth’s appearance and function.
Why Choose Dental Implants?
-
Natural Look and Feel: Implants are designed to look and feel like your natural teeth, providing a seamless and aesthetically pleasing result.
-
Durable and Long-Lasting: Dental implants are made from durable materials and, with proper care, can last a lifetime.
-
Improved Functionality: Implants restore full function, allowing you to chew, speak, and smile confidently without worrying about dentures or bridges slipping.
-
Preserve Jawbone Health: Unlike traditional bridges or dentures, implants help stimulate the jawbone, preventing bone loss and maintaining your facial structure.
Types of Dental Implants:
-
Single Tooth Implants: Ideal for replacing one missing tooth, this involves placing a single implant with a custom crown.
-
Multiple Tooth Implants: For patients who are missing multiple teeth, implant-supported bridges or dentures can restore several teeth in a row.
-
All-on-4 Implants: A revolutionary solution for patients with extensive tooth loss. This method uses just four implants to support a full set of replacement teeth, providing a stable and secure restoration.
The Dental Implant Process at MGM Clinic
-
Initial Consultation & Assessment: We begin by evaluating your oral health and discussing your goals. If you are a good candidate for implants, we take digital X-rays and 3D scans to assess your bone density and plan the best approach.
-
Implant Placement: The implant is surgically placed into your jawbone. Over the next few months, the implant fuses with the bone in a process known as osseointegration, providing a solid foundation for the restoration.
-
Restoration Placement: Once the implant is fully integrated, a custom-made crown, bridge, or denture is attached to the implant, completing the restoration and giving you a natural-looking smile.
-
Ongoing Care & Maintenance: We will monitor your implants regularly to ensure they are functioning well and provide guidance on how to maintain their health and longevity.

Frequently Asked Questions
The dental implant procedure is typically well-tolerated, and most patients experience minimal discomfort. Local anesthesia is used during the procedure, and any post-operative discomfort can usually be managed with over-the-counter pain relievers.
Dental implants are designed to last a lifetime with proper care. The restoration (crown, bridge, or denture) may need to be replaced after several years, but the implant itself is built to endure for many years.
Most healthy adults are candidates for dental implants. Ideal candidates have healthy gums and enough bone density to support the implant. If you have significant bone loss, we may recommend a bone graft procedure before implant placement.
