If you have lost one or more permanent teeth, we urge you to call and schedule a visit at River City Dental & Implant Center. Our dentist, Dr. Amechi Echetebu, has completed an implantology residency, which allows him to provide both implant placement and restorations. At your consultation, Dr. Echetebu can discuss your tooth-replacement options with you, including dental implants. Dental implants are made up of a dental implant post, which is usually made of titanium, and a dental restoration, like a dental crown, dental bridge or denture.

Generally, anyone who has lost a tooth is a potential candidate for dental implants. When you visit our office, Dr. Echetebu will first determine whether or not you are a good candidate for dental implants. If your teeth and gums are healthy, you will most likely be able to receive dental implants.
In addition to examining the health of your teeth and gums, our dentist will take 3D scans of your mouth and jaws. These images will allow Dr. Echetebu to plan your treatment using the latest techniques to help the process be as fast and precise as possible.
Our dentist will surgically place the titanium implant post in your jaw, at the site of the missing tooth. We will make sure that you are comfortable during the whole process by providing you with a local anesthetic and/or nitrous oxide to make sure you are comfortable through the placement, which can be done in as little as 15 minutes using guided surgery technique! The implant post will then need about three to six months to fuse with your jawbone. This fusing allows the implant post to act as a replacement tooth root, providing a stable foundation for the dental restoration.
An abutment will be attached to the top of the implant post. The dental restoration, which can be a dental crown, dental bridge or denture, will be custom made specifically for you. The restoration will be placed atop the abutment to replace the visible portion of your tooth. Your complete dental implant will be designed to restore the function and beauty of your smile and feel like your natural teeth.
Your dental implants can last a lifetime if you care for them properly. Brush and floss daily and attend regular dental appointments.
