What Are Dental Implants?

Dental implants are a permanent solution for missing teeth designed to look, feel, and function like your natural smile. They replace both the tooth and its root using a titanium post that supports a custom dental crown.

The procedure involves placing the implant securely into your jawbone, where it bonds naturally through a process called osseointegration. Once healed, a durable crown is attached, restoring full function and a natural appearance.

Choosing professional dental implants at Boeschenstein & Middleton Family Dentistry in Jenison, MI ensures precision, safety, and long-term success. Unlike removable dentures or bridges, implants are stable, prevent bone loss, and last for decades with proper care.

How to Prepare for Your Dental Implants

Before your appointment, schedule a consultation to assess your oral health and bone structure. Your dentist may take X-rays or 3D scans to plan the ideal implant placement. Maintaining good hygiene and a healthy diet before surgery helps support faster healing.

Avoid smoking or alcohol in the days leading up to your procedure, as these can delay recovery and affect implant success. Follow all pre-surgery instructions provided by your dentist.

Plan your schedule to allow a day or two of rest after implant placement. Discuss your follow-up visits and timeline for healing with our Jenison team to ensure the best long-term results.

Aftercare for Dental Implants

After your dental implant procedure, mild swelling or tenderness may occur for a few days. Use ice packs and over-the-counter pain relievers as directed. Stick to soft foods and avoid chewing directly on the implant area for the first 48 hours.

During recovery, avoid hard, sticky, or spicy foods that may irritate your gums. Keep your mouth clean by gently rinsing with warm salt water and brushing carefully around the implant site.

To maintain your results, attend all follow-up visits for professional monitoring and cleaning. With regular checkups and good daily hygiene, your dental implants can last a lifetime.

I really enjoyed getting my teeth cleaned today, as Dr B explained everything she was doing and that she could help me with my dentures as they didn’t fit.
