Affordable Dental Implants Boston, MA

There are a few options when it comes to dental implants, ranging in price, function, and how many teeth you are looking to replace.

• Single Tooth Implant | Replaces one tooth. The implant looks, feels, and functions just like a normal tooth, helps to reduce bone-loss after removal of a natural tooth, and has a minimal impact on nearby teeth.
• Multi-Tooth Implant Bridge | Replaces a series of bad or missing teeth. Two implants are placed into the jaw, which are connected to a series of crowns that bridge the gap.
• All-On-4, Full Mouth Implants | The All-On-4 procedure is the most life-like way to replace bad or missing teeth. Each full arch is secured by 4-6 dental implants, making them feel and function just like natural teeth. Dr. Brito will work with you to customize your final teeth to make sure you walk out with the smile of your dreams!
  
  

The type of dental implant that’s best for you will depend on several factors, including the amount and location of healthy teeth you have, the amount and density of bone in your jaw, your overall oral health, and your personal preferences. Dr. Brito will go through your options and recommend the best type of dental implant for your specific needs after a thorough evaluation. To book a consultation, give us a call or schedule online today!

The cost of dental implants can vary depending on several factors, including the type of implant, the number of implants needed, and any preparation for the procedure, such as extractions. Because this is so case-by-case, we recommend that you schedule a consultation with Dr. Brito, and they will be happy to walk you through your options and pricing for each with no pressure.

Dental insurance coverage for dental implants can also vary depending on your specific insurance plan. Some plans may cover a portion of the cost of dental implants, while others may not cover the procedure at all. It’s important to check with your insurance provider to understand your coverage options for dental implants. In some cases, dental insurance may cover the cost of the restoration (the replacement tooth or bridge) that is attached to the implant, but not the implant itself.

Bone grafting is a procedure that involves adding bone tissue to the jawbone to increase its volume and density. This procedure is commonly used in dental implant surgery to help provide a stable foundation for the implant.

Bone grafting may be necessary for dental implants in cases where the patient has experienced bone loss in the jaw due to periodontal disease, injury, or other causes. Without sufficient bone volume and density, the implant may not be able to integrate properly with the jawbone, leading to implant failure.

In some cases, bone grafting may not be necessary for dental implants, depending on the amount of available bone in the jaw and the specific implant placement technique used. Dr. Brito will be able to determine whether bone grafting is necessary for your dental implant procedure during your initial consultation.

Dr. Brito will use an anesthetic so most patients report minimal pain or discomfort during and immediately after their dental implant procedure.

After the anesthetic wears off, it’s common to experience some minor discomfort, swelling, and bruising in the area around the implant. Dr. Brito may prescribe or recommend over-the-counter medication to help manage any discomfort as you recover.

It’s very important to follow all post-operative instructions, including any medication instructions and recommendations for oral hygiene and diet. Avoiding smoking and drinking alcohol can also help reduce discomfort and promote healing.

While dental implant surgery is generally well-tolerated, it’s important to discuss any concerns or questions with Dr. Brito prior to your procedure. They can provide detailed information about what to expect and work with you to develop a personalized treatment plan that meets your needs and minimizes any discomfort or pain.

The most important thing is to find an experienced dental implant specialist that will discuss all of your options with you, without pressure, and let you make a decision that you’re comfortable with. At Brito Family Dental, we’ll work with you to customize a dental implant treatment plan that fits within your budget, and deliver results that will make you and your loved ones smile!

The first step is your consultation, but once you and Dr. Brito have agreed on a treatment plan, it’s certainly possible to have your dental implants placed in one appointment. This is known as “immediate loading” or “same-day implants.”

Not all patients are candidates for same-day implants, and the decision to place same-day implants will depend on several factors, including the condition of your jawbone and the complexity of your case. In general, patients who have good oral health, sufficient bone density and volume, and no major underlying medical conditions may be candidates for same-day implants.

Dr. Brito will conduct a thorough evaluation of your oral health and medical history to determine whether same-day implants are a viable option for you.

The healing time for dental implants can vary depending on several factors, including the number of implants placed, the condition of your jawbone, and your overall health. In general, it can take anywhere from several weeks to several months for dental implants to fully heal and fuse with the jawbone.

During the healing process, it’s important to follow all post-operative instructions, including proper oral hygiene practices and avoiding certain foods and activities that could interfere with healing. Dr. Brito will also schedule follow-up appointments to monitor your progress and ensure that the implants are healing properly.

You may need dental implants if you have one or more missing teeth or if you are facing tooth extraction due to extensive decay or damage. Additionally, if you have traditional dentures or bridges that are uncomfortable, unstable, or otherwise unsatisfactory, dental implants may be a good option to consider.

Some signs that you may need dental implants include:

• Difficulty eating or speaking | Missing teeth or ill-fitting dentures can make it difficult to eat certain foods or speak clearly.
• Bone loss | If you have been missing teeth for a prolonged period of time, you may have experienced bone loss in the jawbone, which can affect your facial structure and make it difficult to wear traditional dentures.
• Tooth pain or decay | Severely decayed or damaged teeth may need to be extracted and replaced with dental implants.
• Self-consciousness about your smile | Missing teeth or ill-fitting dentures can affect your self-confidence and make you feel self-conscious about your smile.
  
  

If you are experiencing any of these symptoms, please give us a call or book a consultation online to discuss your treatment options. Dr. Brito can evaluate your oral health and determine whether dental implants are a good option for you based on your individual needs, preferences, and overall health.
