What Is the Process for Creating a Dental Implant?
Creating a dental implant involves a detailed process that ensures functionality, durability, and aesthetics. At Sho Dental Laboratory, we work closely with dentists to craft precise and natural-looking implants for patients.
Initial Planning and Design
The process of creating a dental implant begins with a consultation between the patient and their dentist. The dentist will conduct a thorough examination, which may include X-rays or 3D scans, to assess the patient's oral health and determine the ideal location for the implant. Afterward, the dentist provides the lab with detailed impressions or digital scans.
At Sho Dental Laboratory, we use these precise measurements to design the implant, ensuring that it fits perfectly and aligns with the patient’s bite. The design is often done with CAD/CAM technology, allowing for high precision and customization. Once the design is approved, the lab begins fabricating the implant itself, ensuring the highest level of accuracy and strength.
Fabrication and Final Fitting
Once the design phase is complete, the dental implant is fabricated using biocompatible materials such as titanium, which is known for its strength and ability to integrate with the jawbone. The implant is carefully crafted to match the size, shape, and color of the patient's natural teeth, ensuring both function and aesthetics. After the implant is placed in the patient’s mouth by the oral surgeon, a custom-made crown or restoration is created to complete the process.
At Sho Dental Laboratory, we ensure that every implant and restoration is fabricated with the utmost care and precision. Our team of skilled technicians works closely with the dentist to ensure the implant fits comfortably and provides long-lasting results, restoring both function and appearance to the patient’s smile.
