Dental Implants
A Permanent Solution That Feels Natural
Imagine a life where you never have to think twice about eating your favorite steak, laughing out loud in a crowded room, or simply smiling for a photo without feeling self-conscious. Missing teeth don’t just affect your appearance; they can steal your confidence, your comfort, and even your health.
Here, Dr. Singla offers dental implants designed to look, feel, and function just like your natural teeth. Stop worrying about slipping dentures or gaps, and start living your life fully again!
The Real Difference Implants Make
The truth is, a missing tooth leaves a gap in more than just your smile. It creates a space where your jawbone begins to deteriorate, changing the shape of your face and putting your remaining teeth at risk.
Dental implants are different from traditional options like bridges or dentures because they address the root of the problem: they replace the root of the tooth.
- The Confidence to Speak & Smile: Say goodbye to covering your mouth. Implants are permanent and feel incredibly stable, allowing you to speak clearly and smile genuinely.
- Enjoy All Your Favorite Foods: Since the implant is anchored in your jaw, it restores nearly all your natural biting power.
- Preserve Your Youthful Look: By stimulating the jawbone, the implant prevents the bone loss that causes a sunken-in, aged facial appearance.
- The Longest-Lasting Solution: Implants are designed to last a lifetime with proper care, making them an excellent long-term investment in your health and happiness.
Types of Implant Solutions
- Single Tooth Replacement: A single post and crown flawlessly restore one missing tooth without impacting the surrounding teeth (unlike a bridge).
- Implant-Supported Bridge: Two or more implants anchor a permanent bridge to replace several adjacent missing teeth.
- Full Arch Replacement (All-on-4® and implant-supported dentures): For patients missing most or all of their teeth, we can use four or more strategically placed implants to secure a full, permanent arch of teeth. This eliminates the slipping, discomfort, and adhesion associated with traditional dentures.
Your Step-by-Step Journey To A New Smile
- Consultation and evaluation: During your initial consultation, Dr. Singla will assess your oral health, review your medical history, and determine if dental implants are the right solution for you. He may also take X-rays and create a detailed treatment plan.
- Bone grafting (if needed): If you need a bone graft to strengthen your jawbone, this procedure will be performed first. Bone grafting typically requires several months of healing before dental implant surgery can be performed.
- Dental implant placement: During this step, Dr. Singla will surgically insert the titanium post into your jawbone. The procedure is typically performed under local anesthesia to ensure your comfort. After the implant is placed, you will need to wait for a healing period, usually three to six months, during which the implant will integrate with the surrounding bone.
- Abutment placement: Once the implant has successfully integrated with your jawbone, Dr. Singla will attach the abutment to the implant. The abutment is the piece that connects the implant to the dental crown or prosthesis.
- Dental crown or prosthesis seating: Finally, a custom-made dental crown or prosthesis will be created to match the shape, size, and color of your natural teeth. This crown or prosthesis will be attached to the abutment, completing the dental implant process.

Frequently Asked Questions
Dental implants are designed to be a long-lasting solution for tooth replacement. With proper care and maintenance, dental implants can last a lifetime. However, the dental crown or prosthesis may need to be replaced after 10-15 years due to normal wear and tear.
The cost of dental implants varies depending on several factors, including the number of implants needed, the complexity of your case, and whether you require additional procedures like bone grafting. During your consultation at Singla Dental, Dr. Singla will provide you with a detailed treatment plan and cost estimate tailored to your specific needs.
It’s important to note that dental implants are an investment in your long-term oral health and overall well-being. While they may be more expensive upfront than other tooth replacement options, their durability and long-lasting benefits make them a cost-effective choice in the long run.
Dental implants are a safe and well-established treatment option when placed by a skilled and experienced dental professional like Dr. Singla. The materials used in dental implants, such as titanium, are biocompatible and have been extensively researched for their safety and effectiveness.
As with any surgical procedure, there are some risks associated with dental implant surgery, such as infection, nerve damage, or implant failure. However, these risks are relatively low, and Dr. Singla takes every precaution to ensure your safety and comfort throughout the procedure.
- Brush and floss daily: Use a soft-bristled toothbrush and gently brush your teeth and implants at least twice a day. Floss daily to remove plaque and food debris from between your teeth and around the implant.
- Schedule regular dental checkups: Visit Singla Dental for routine checkups and professional cleanings at least twice a year. Dr. Singla will monitor the health of your dental implants and address any issues early on.
- Avoid hard or sticky foods: To protect your dental implants and the attached dental crowns or prostheses, avoid chewing on hard or sticky foods that can cause damage.
- Quit smoking: Smoking can negatively impact the success and longevity of dental implants. If you smoke, it’s essential to quit to ensure the best possible outcome for your dental implants.
