Implant-Supported Restoration Parts
The reason why implants are so effective? They're not in it alone. Our dentists bolster your results by using three components:
Implants
By replacing your tooth's artificial roots, titanium implants are able to perform some of the duties your natural tooth would, like stimulating jawbone tissue. They also offer a secure foundation for the next two parts: abutments and custom restorations.
Restorations
We offer a variety of dental implant-supported restorations to address all degrees of tooth loss. Whether you just need to replace one tooth, or you're looking for an entirely new smile, implants can help with every option.
Osseointegration
Traditional tooth replacement methods, like crowns and dentures, only address part of the problem. Without your tooth's natural roots to stimulate your jawbone tissue, the area will continue to deteriorate. Dental implants directly solve that issue.
Implants are small titanium or ceramic screws that act as artificial tooth roots. For the ultimate security, they fuse to your bone during a process called osseointegration.
As a result, your restorations won't budge a millimeter, giving you renewed functionality. Plus, implants typically last a lifetime, making them an excellent long-term investment in your well-being.

Common Preparatory Treatments We Conduct Before Implant Placement
Are you considering dental implants in Waco, but concerned you may not be a candidate? Our dentists may be able to restore your oral health and change your implant candidacy status with supplementary treatments. Popular options at our Waco office include:
All-on-4 Implants An Advanced Solution for Denture Wearers
If you are missing all of your teeth in the upper or lower jaw, we offer All-on-4, a streamlined alternative to traditional dental implants that can support an entire denture with just four implants. For the right candidates, All-on-4 offers some distinct advantages:
Avoid bone grafting: If you have experienced some jaw atrophy, you may be able to receive All-on-4 without a bone graft. That's because the two posterior implants are placed at angles to maximize contact with existing bone tissue, often eliminating the need for a bone graft.
Less invasive treatment: A full-arch denture can require six to eight traditional implants in the upper and lower jaw; with this solution, you only need four implants per dental arch to support a denture.
Get your implant-supported denture immediately: Traditional dentures will need time to integrate with your jaw before they can support your denture; All-on-4 can support your denture right away. However, you will need to wait for your jaw to heal before you can experience the full benefits of treatment (such as being able to eat rare steaks or bite into apples).
Dental Implant FAQ Answers to Frequently Asked Questions
If you're looking for dental implants in Waco, we invite you to explore these fast answers to common questions to help you prepare for your consultation.
When you meet with us in Hewitt, we will take all the time needed to answer your questions and help you make an informed decision.
How long do implants last?
Quality implants placed by a board-certified implantologist can last 40 years or longer. Choosing a qualified provider who uses advanced technology during the planning stages can help you get the most out of your treatment. At CTDC, we take every measure to give you long-lasting results. While your crown, bridge, or dentures may need to be replaced about every 10 years, the implants could last the rest of your life.
Does dental insurance cover dental implants?
Some plans cover implants, but many do not. Most plans will cover some parts of treatment, such as your crown, bridge, or dentures. You can rely on our staff to help you get maximum coverage for your treatment. Any remaining costs can be covered using our in-house payment plans or financing through CareCredit, a third-party lender offering low-interest and interest-free plans.
Do dental implants hurt?
We provide local anesthesia and optional sedation to help you remain absolutely comfortable throughout implant placement surgery. You can expect some swelling and mild discomfort during recovery that can be easily managed with over-the-counter pain meds.
How do I maintain my implants?
Caring for implant-supported restorations is just like caring for your natural teeth. Brush twice a day, floss at least once daily, and visit your dentist every six months for a checkup. It's easy!
