See How Your Life Can Improve With Teeth Implants

If you have one or more missing teeth, implants can restore them and make it easy to bite and chew again. In addition, if you have teeth that are too diseased or damaged to repair, we can gently remove them to make room for implants. We can then top the implants with crowns or other dental implant options:

  • Implant-Supported Bridge – An implant-supported bridge gives you a less invasive option than a standard bridge. When a dental bridge is anchored by implants, there is no need for Dr. Koo to drill into any of your healthy teeth.
  • Dental Implant Dentures – Unlike conventional dentures, with implant dentures your teeth won’t shift out of place or become dislodged. You’ll never need adhesives. Perhaps most important, you’ll prevent your jawbone from deteriorating, a common consequence of tooth loss.

If you’re missing all or most of your teeth, Dr. Koo will help you determine which restorations will give you the best results for a full-mouth reconstruction. No matter which treatment you receive, Dr. Koo will numb your mouth with local anesthesia. You can also receive inhaled sedation if you’d like to remain completely relaxed during your procedure.

Get Your Smile Back With Our Top Technology & Skills

Dr. Koo has used implants to help many of our patients get full function back after losing teeth. He uses Neobiotech implants, which are designed to fuse to your bone more quickly than other implants. To ensure you get optimal results from your replacement teeth, he will:

  • Recommend a bone graft to strengthen your jaw, if needed, likely immediately after a tooth extraction for best results
  • Examine your jaw with 3-D CT scanning to assess your readiness for implants
  • Place implants in your jaw during a safe and precise computer-guided procedure
  • Take exact measurements and match the shade of your restorations to your other teeth so our lab partner can create beautiful teeth that will blend in perfectly with your smile
  • Securely attach your restorations to implants after a brief healing period
  • Make any final adjustments needed to ensure your new teeth fit and function perfectly

Call us at 206-922-4573 today to schedule a free consultation. Dr. Koo and his staff can help you decide if dental implants in Seattle are a good option for your needs. You can also schedule online.

Common Questions About Dental Implants
Will dental implants stop bone loss?

One of the biggest advantages of getting dental implants is that it can stop the bone deterioration that happens after you lose teeth. When you lose teeth, you also lose their roots. You may not know it, but tooth roots keep your jawbone strong by providing stimulation when you chew. When placed in your jaw, implants provide the same kind of stimulation as natural tooth roots. This keeps your jaw healthy and intact.

Are dental implants comfortable?

Once placed in your jaw, your implants fuse to the bone in a natural process called osseointegration. In essence, they become part of your jaw. There is no discomfort involved. Not only that, but implants keep replacement teeth like dentures securely in place, so you won’t experience the uncomfortable friction that can irritate your mouth.

Are dental implants permanent?

Dental implants are designed to be a long-term solution. They should last for decades with proper oral hygiene. But their longevity depends on several factors, including the bone density of your jaw and the types of replacement teeth you use with them. The restorations attached to your implants will typically need to be replaced before your implants.

Can dental implants come loose?

An implant must be surrounded by healthy gums and bone to heal properly once it’s placed. Depending on your oral health, we may recommend gum disease treatment or a bone graft before you receive an implant. Once healed, loose implants are exceptionally rare. In some cases, the restorations attached to your implants can come loose. If so, we can tighten or replace the restoration.
