What Is a Dental Implant Restoration?

A dental implant restoration is the final, visible part of an implant treatment, the custom crown, bridge, or denture that attaches to your titanium implant post after healing. Using digital scanning and intraoral photography, we design dental restorations that match the shade, shape, and bite of your natural teeth. Our Chesterfield practice offers:

• Implant crowns for single-tooth replacement
• Implant-supported bridges for two or more adjacent teeth

Can Dental Implants Replace Multiple Missing Teeth?

Yes. Implant-supported bridges and full-arch restorations allow us to replace several or all missing teeth without a separate post for every gap. By sharing the load across strategically placed implants, you gain superior bite force and comfort compared with traditional removable dentures.

Can Tooth Implants Improve My Ability to Chew and Speak?

• Stable, anchored teeth restore natural bite strength for steaks, nuts, and crisp fruits.
• Secure fittings eliminate the lisping or clicking common with loose dentures.
• Balanced pressure distribution helps preserve jawbone integrity and maintain facial symmetry.

At Chesterfield Dental Studio, our focus is both aesthetics and function, so you can enjoy your favorite foods and converse without worry.

How Long Do Implant Restorations For Teeth Last?

With good hygiene and routine check-ups, implant restorations commonly last 15–25 years or more. Ceramic materials resist staining and fracture, while the titanium post can last a lifetime. Factors affecting longevity include:

• Daily oral care habits
• Regular professional cleanings
• Overall health and bone quality
• Avoiding habits like smoking or chewing ice

How Do I Care for My Dental Implant Restoration?

• Brush twice daily with a soft-bristle toothbrush
• Floss or use interdental cleaners around the implant crown
• Visit us twice a year for exams, digital X-rays, and professional cleanings
• Wear a night guard if you clench or grind your teeth
• Avoid biting pens, ice, or hard candies

Maintaining healthy habits and preventive dental care is key to protecting your tooth implant. 

How Long Does It Take to Heal After Tooth Implant Restoration?

Soft-tissue healing takes a few weeks, while bone integration typically finishes within three to six months. Variables such as bone density, smoking, and overall health can affect the duration of this timeline. For suitable cases, immediate-load implants offer a temporary crown on the same day of surgery.

How Much Does a Dental Implant Restoration Cost in Chesterfield, MO?

The cost of a dental implant restoration varies based on several factors, including the number of implants required, the type of dental restoration (such as crowns, bridges, or full-arch solutions), and whether any preparatory procedures, like bone grafting, are necessary.

While dental implants typically represent a greater initial investment than traditional alternatives, they offer unmatched longevity, durability, and preservation of your jawbone and facial structure. At your consultation, our team will walk you through a personalized treatment plan and provide a detailed cost estimate.
