Who is a Candidate for Hybridge Dental Implants?

A consultation with Dr. Walker is necessary to determine if you are a suitable candidate for Hybridge dental implants. Generally, an ideal candidate is a healthy adult who has lost teeth due to periodontal disease, decay, or trauma. Our dental team will take a detailed medical history and images of your teeth and jaw to evaluate if implant placement is feasible. Certain medical conditions may influence the success rate for dental implants, so it is important to disclose any medications or health issues beforehand. We can discuss all available options during an appointment and explain how Hybridge dental implants can provide a secure solution for missing teeth.

Dr. Carolyn Walker is a Hybridge implant-certified specialist and is equipped with the skills and technologies to transform your quality of life for years to come. Implants are usually made of titanium and resemble the shape and size of your natural tooth root. Titanium is chosen because it is strong, durable, and able to fuse to the bone over time. Dental implants are ideal for people who have lost teeth due to periodontal disease, decay, injury, and other issues. Dr. Walker will take a CT scan of your jaw and teeth to determine the exact dimensions of your existing bone and identify where the nerves and sinuses are before placing your custom-made implant. If there is not enough existing bone available, a bone grafting material may be needed. During your procedure at Pipe Creek Dental Center, the implants are inserted into your numbed jaw. Healing from implant surgery can range from a few weeks to several months, depending on the complexity of your case. After you have healed, you will enjoy a healthy, functioning implant that can last for up to ten years as long as you practice a good dental hygiene routine and get regular dental exams with Dr. Walker.

Those ladies are angels. They have been a blessing to me. I never felt blessed by strangers now I can say I have. They are professional and caring. You are actually treated like a real person not just a patient.

My hygienist, Shay, was thorough and meticulous. She also took the time to explain things to me, which broadened my understanding of dental health. Dr. Walker has a welcoming and comforting presence. She was gentle and still did everything she needed to do. I highly recommend Pipe Creek Dental.

Recovery time from the procedure is typically minimal as most of our patients are able to return to their typical daily lives within a matter of days. In some cases, some light bruising could cause discomfort, but this is not unexpected and will subside naturally. Once the mouth heals, patients will also be free to resume eating the foods they love. However, while Hybridge dental implants are designed with this in mind and are much stronger than other alternatives, there can be some limitations. In general, we do not recommend patients eat foods that require "crushing." This could be hard nuts, ice, bones, hard candies, or popcorn kernels. Eating these types of foods could cause the new teeth to fracture or break and will require a replacement.

How long will my implants last?

If properly maintained, we are happy to say that your hybridge dental implants should last for life. In order to care for your implants, we strongly recommend sticking to your dental visits and maintaining proper dental hygiene at home. Studies show that individuals with hybridge implants demonstrate a very high success rate in the longevity of their implants.

What exactly are Hybridge dental implants?

Hybridge dental implants merge the benefits of dentures with the permanency of implants. These implants are ideal for replacing an entire row, or a grouping, of missing or damaged teeth. These prosthetics are a permanent solution to mouths that have some teeth missing but do not need full dentures.

Why choose Hybridge implants over traditional implants?

Individuals who are interested in hybridge implants should ensure that they have a sufficient amount of jaw bone for this procedure. However, hybridge implants require less jaw bone than traditional implants. Discuss the various nuances of implant options with your practitioner at Pipe Creek Dental Center in your consultation appointment.

How long after the implant surgery must I wait until I can go back to work?

For many patients, jumping back into their usual activities takes just a few days. While discomfort tends to be low for the majority, it's important to remember that everyone's recovery experience differs. Patients might notice some bruising, which could influence how quickly you feel comfortable returning to work or social activities. Generally, taking a short break of 3 - 5 days is often sufficient to confidently resume a full schedule.

Will I ever have to go without teeth during the process?

In many situations, you'll have the option to wear a temporary denture while undergoing treatment. This choice can provide a pleasing appearance, but it's worth noting that your eating and functional abilities might be somewhat restricted with the denture(s) in place.

I grind my teeth, will I grind my new Hybridge teeth?

Correcting a bad bite often leads to decreased teeth grinding, yet changing long-standing habits can be challenging. Individuals with a history of bruxing (teeth grinding) may find that their Hybridge teeth require more maintenance over time due to wear. However, the advantage of Hybridge teeth is that they can typically be restored within a week, often at a lower cost than the price of a single crown.
