What is a Dental Implant? Your Smile Solution at Bonaventure Dental Care

Summary of this video by Dr. Justin K Bonaventure

Dr. Justin K. Bonaventure explains that dental implants act as artificial roots, allowing replacement of a single tooth or an entire set. They provide a durable, natural-feeling solution for patients who struggle with missing teeth, ill-fitting dentures or failed dental work. Full arch implants, often placed while patients are asleep, can restore a complete smile in one day using just a few implants to securely anchor new teeth. This approach improves chewing, speaking, and confidence by providing stable, locked-in teeth that don’t shift like traditional dentures.

What is a Dental Implant? Your Smile Solution at Bonaventure Dental Care

If you’ve ever wondered, “What is a dental implant?” or if you’re considering a solution for missing teeth, you’re not alone. Dental implants have become a leading choice for restoring smiles. At Bonaventure Dental Care in Baton Rouge, LA, we understand the emotional and physical impact of losing teeth. We believe you deserve a smile you’re proud to share, and dental implants might be your answer. 

Understanding Dental Implants

Dental implants might sound complex, but as Dr. Justin K. Bonaventure explains, “A dental implant is an artificial root. It is a replacement of the root of the tooth that allows us to maybe replace a single tooth or maybe allows us to replace all of your teeth.” Essentially, it’s a sturdy foundation where a new tooth can be placed, designed to function just like a natural tooth.

Patients often share concerns about dental implants being painful or complicated. However, we’ve heard from many, like one patient who revealed, “The procedure was nothing like I expected. It was smooth and so worth it.” Indeed, Dr. Bonaventure assures, “A dental implant is a surgical procedure that is relatively painless but has great outcomes.”

Who Needs Dental Implants?

Dental implants are more than just aesthetic solutions; they are transformative for individuals struggling with ill-fitting dentures or failing dental work. Dr. Bonaventure mentions, “They really have come into play for those people that have been on that revolving door of dentistry and don’t know where to turn.” We’ve listened to patients express relief, stating, “Implants gave me my life back. I can eat and smile confidently again.”

For those missing one or multiple teeth, dental implants provide a stable and lasting solution. Imagine flossing and brushing with ease, just like you did with your natural teeth. One patient shared their joy, noting, “I never imagined it would feel so natural.”

For patients missing most or all of their teeth, full arch implants present an innovative route to a whole new smile. Dr. Bonaventure notes, “Full arch implants are pretty special things. We do ours generally here when patients are asleep. So it’s very nice for those anxious patients.” Our top priority is keeping you comfortable while we fill in the gaps of missing teeth. 

Dr. Bonaventure elaborates, “It acts again, like we said, the root system, and we can attach the new smile to the implants.” This method ensures that your new teeth are secured, eliminating the inconvenience of removable dentures. A patient remarked, “Waking up to a smile makeover was the best decision of my life.”

However, as Dr. Bonaventure highlights, “So essentially, you can kind of go to sleep with the teeth that are bad. We can take them out, put the implants in, and give you a new smile when you wake up.”

One patient summarized their satisfaction, saying, “I had no idea the process would be so life-changing. I wished I had done it sooner.” We invite you to share in the life-enhancing experiences of dental implants, crafted uniquely for you in the heart of Baton Rouge.
