Dr. Byron Desbordes uses dental implants to help patients restore the health, aesthetics, and function of their smiles. Patients with missing teeth are at a higher risk of developing a full range of oral and systemic health concerns such as gum disease, additional tooth loss, and recession of the jaw bone. Replacing missing teeth helps to secure the oral foundation for a functional and stable bite.

Dr. Desbordes will begin with a comprehensive oral health exam. Together, you and Dr. Desbordes will build a personalized treatment plan to restore your smile. Your implant procedure will depend on the health of your teeth and gums as well as the number and location of your missing teeth. In many cases, Dr. Desbordes can treat patients from his Baltimore, MD dentist office. When necessary, we may coordinator with a local oral surgeon for optimal results.

The dental implant(s) are surgically placed into the jaw bone. The small titanium screws act as a prosthetic root structure and will naturally fuse with the jaw bone. The implants will take 2-4 months to fully heal and integrate with your jaw.

Once healed, Dr. Desbordes works with a local dental lab to custom design and fabricate your dental restoration. The dental crown, bridge, or denture will be permanently secured to your implants for a natural and beautiful smile. Your new tooth or teeth can be color-matched to seamlessly blend in with your natural teeth.

If you currently have a denture that is ill-fitted, or you often experience difficulty eating or slippage, Dr. Desbordes can help you secure your denture. Using carefully placed dental implants the denture can be permanently secured for better function. Implant-secured dentures can help patients improve their self-confidence, bite functionality, and oral health.

As soon as possible! The longer you wait, the more time the body has to direct minerals away from the area around the lost tooth. Soon, the jawbone tissue can break down, leading to a risk of further tooth loss. In addition, surrounding teeth may actually drift from their positions and cause misalignment to develop.

Implants can be maintained just like your natural teeth. To keep your dental implant secure and healthy, patients are required to visit the dentist twice a year and brush and floss at least twice a day. Just like natural teeth, dental implants require healthy bone and gum tissue for long-term results.

After a thorough dental exam, Dr. Desbordes will help you determine the best missing tooth treatment option for your specific needs. We offer dental implants for one or several missing teeth. After surgery, the dental implant post typically requires 3 to 6 months to fully integrate with your jaw bone. After its fully integrated, we will secure the ceramic crown. The whole process can take up to 8 months.

Implants are intended to be permanent. The crown attached to it may need to be replaced due to normal wear and tear in 10 to 15 years. But the dental implants themselves should last a lifetime as long as you visit your dentist every 6 months to one year for regular cleanings and maintenance. Dr. Desbordes has the experience to make sure that your implant procedure is done right the first time.
