Question 6

How Long Do Implants Last?

Accepted Answer

The implant can last 20-25 years with good at-home care and regular checkups, while the artificial tooth can last 10-15 years before needing to be replaced or repaired.

Question 7

How Long Does It Take To Get An Implant?

Accepted Answer

It usually takes 3-4 appointments to receive an implant. Once the post has been installed and your mouth has fully healed, a process that generally takes a few weeks, Dr. Hahn will mount a custom-made crown (replacement tooth) onto the metal post. Because the implants fuse to your jawbone, they provide firm support for artificial teeth and don’t shift around the mouth like some removable dentures.

Question 8

What Are Implants Made Out Of?

Accepted Answer

Implants are generally made out of titanium. We use this metal because it fuses naturally with your jawbone for increased strength and stability. Titanium also helps stimulate bone growth to reverse the tissue loss that follows after losing one or more teeth.

Question 9

Do Implants Hurt?

Accepted Answer

Implants require a minor outpatient surgery to insert in your jawbone, which will require a few weeks for your mouth to fully heal. It’s normal to experience pain, swelling, and some bleeding during the first few days after your surgery. Once your mouth has healed and your implant has been restored with your replacement tooth, it will feel as painless and natural as a regular tooth.

Question 10

Can Anyone Get A Dental Implant?

Accepted Answer

If you’re missing teeth, you could be a great dental implant candidate. Your jaw must be finished growing, and your gums must be healthy. Dental implants are an excellent solution for adults, not children.

Question 15

Are Veneers/Lumineers Permanent?

Accepted Answer

The process of receiving porcelain veneers involves reshaping the natural tooth structure beneath, which is permanent and cannot be reversed without dental attention. On the other hand, Lumineers generally require little to no preparation, which means you natural tooth structure remains intact.

Question 16

How Long Do Veneers/Lumineers Last?

Accepted Answer

Porcelain veneers typically last 10-15 years with good brushing and flossing habits, while Lumineers can last up to 10 years.

Question 17

Do Veneers/Lumineers Hurt?

Accepted Answer

Porcelain veneers require moderate tooth preparation prior to placement, which includes trimming and reshaping your existing enamel for the best possible fit. Lumineers require little to no preparation, which means they can be applied without changing the tooth structure. That said, tooth preparation is generally a painless procedure thanks to local anesthesia and the latest techniques.

Question 18

How Long Does It Take To Get Veneers/Lumineers?

Accepted Answer

It usually takes 2-3 appointments to receive a new set of veneers or Lumineers. This includes your initial consultation, preparation, and application.
