Implant Placement in Pembroke Pines, FL

Consultation and Evaluation: The process begins with a thorough consultation and evaluation by our experienced team, led by Dr. Annabel Perez. During this stage, we assess your oral health, bone density, and overall suitability for dental implant placement.

Treatment Planning: Following the evaluation, a personalized treatment plan is developed to address your specific needs and goals. This plan outlines the number of implants required, their optimal positioning, and any additional procedures such as bone grafting if necessary.

Implant Placement: The next step involves surgically placing the dental implants into the jawbone. This procedure is performed with precision and care to ensure proper alignment and stability. Sedation options are available to ensure your comfort throughout the process.

Osseointegration: After implant placement, a crucial period of healing begins. Over the following weeks to months, the implants fuse with the surrounding bone through a process called osseointegration. This integration is essential for the long-term success and stability of the implants.

Abutment Placement: Once osseointegration is complete, abutments are attached to the implants. These connectors serve as the foundation for the final restorations, such as crowns, bridges, or dentures, to be securely placed on top.

Final Restoration: The final step involves attaching the custom-made prosthetic teeth to the abutments, restoring function, aesthetics, and confidence to your smile. Our team ensures that the restorations blend seamlessly with your natural teeth for a beautiful and harmonious result.

Maintain Oral Hygiene: Brush and floss regularly to keep the implant site clean and free of plaque buildup. Routine dental check-ups and cleanings are also essential for monitoring the health of your implants and surrounding tissues.

Avoid Hard Foods: During the initial healing phase, avoid chewing on hard or sticky foods that could put excessive pressure on the implants. Opt for softer, easy-to-chew options until cleared by our team.

Monitor Healing: Keep an eye on the implant site for any signs of infection or complications, such as swelling, pain, or bleeding. If you experience any concerns, don’t hesitate to contact us promptly for further evaluation and treatment.

Quit Smoking: Smoking can hinder the healing process and increase the risk of implant failure. If you smoke, consider quitting or reducing your tobacco use to improve the long-term success of your dental implants.

Attend Follow-Up Appointments: Regular follow-up appointments with Dr. Annabel Perez and our team are crucial for monitoring your progress and addressing any issues promptly. These appointments also allow us to adjust your treatment plan as needed for optimal results.

Protect Your Investment: Treat your dental implants with care and avoid habits such as teeth grinding or using your teeth as tools, which can damage the restorations or compromise the implant’s stability.
