SINGLE TOOTH IMPLANT
A single-tooth implant restores a missing tooth with an artificial tooth root placed in the jawbone, with safety and stable, lasting results over time. In this method, one artificial root made of titanium (a material proven and tested to be safe, biocompatible and friendly to the human body) is placed by the doctor in the jawbone to replace the lost root, and a porcelain crown is then attached, restoring the shape and function of the missing tooth.
Who should get a single-tooth implant
If you are in any of the situations below, you should choose dental implants as the solution:
People who have just lost 1 tooth and want to restore it immediately to preserve aesthetics and chewing function and avoid later consequences.
People who lost 1 tooth long ago, leading to shifting of surrounding teeth and a misaligned bite.
People who lost 1 tooth but whose neighboring teeth are not strong enough for a porcelain bridge.
Single-Tooth Implants with Many Practical Benefits
Dental implants are regarded as the optimal solution for replacing a single missing tooth, with many outstanding advantages:
Restores over 95% of the shape and function of the lost tooth: A complete implant tooth is almost like a real tooth, with firm chewing and natural aesthetics, helping customers smile confidently and communicate and go about daily life comfortably.
Prevents teeth from shifting: Restoring the tooth early with an implant prevents the remaining teeth from shifting and tilting toward the gap, which causes a misaligned bite and affects chewing function and aesthetics. In particular, when teeth shift, the gaps between them become larger, food gets trapped easily and causes cavities, gingivitis, periodontitis and bad breath. If left untreated for a long time, this can lead to further tooth loss. Thus the loss of one tooth can lead to the loss of many other adjacent teeth.
Prevents jawbone loss complications: Once placed, the implant quickly integrates biologically with the body and transmits force to the bone during chewing, helping to preserve as much jawbone volume as possible.
Stable, lifelong results: Implants are very durable and, with careful care, have a very long lifespan.
Single-Tooth Implant Procedure at Kha Dental
At Kha Dental, the single-tooth implant procedure is carried out in 5 medically standardized steps:
Step 1
Clinical examination, X-rays and consultation with the doctor
Step 2
Blood test
Step 3
Implant placement
Step 4
Follow-up visit, stitches removed after 10 days
Step 5
Porcelain restoration on the implant
Step 1: Examination, X-rays and consultation with the doctor.
The doctor performs a clinical examination of your overall oral condition. X-rays and a CBCT scan let the doctor accurately survey the condition of the jawbone and plan treatment closely, ensuring the best results. With all the imaging data, the doctor will advise you on the time and steps of treatment.
Step 2: Blood tests.
If you agree to the treatment plan, you will have blood tests to check blood clotting and screen blood sugar levels (if you have diabetes), as well as other necessary health indicators as directed by the doctor, to ensure safety during surgery.
Before the surgery date, Kha Dental's staff will guide you on the necessary points about health, mindset and oral care so you can be fully prepared for a safe and gentle surgery.
Step 3: Implant placement.
On the appointed day, customers come to Kha Dental for implant surgery. Rest assured — throughout the procedure the doctor uses local anesthesia so customers feel comfortable and at ease.
Typically, placing one implant without bone grafting takes only about 15 minutes and is very gentle, even gentler than a tooth extraction. At the end, you will be given thorough instructions on how to care for the wound at home.
Step 4: Follow-up visit, stitches removed after 10 days.
You need to return to the clinic so the doctor can monitor and assess the condition of the implant after it has been placed in the jawbone.
Step 5: Porcelain restoration on the implant.
After 8–12 weeks, once integration between the implant and jawbone is perfect (the implant and jawbone bond tightly into one unit), customers are scheduled to return to Kha Dental for the porcelain restoration on the implant. This phase usually takes 2–3 appointments over about 5–7 days.
Estimated duration
It takes about 10–14 weeks to have a complete implant tooth. If a customer has been missing a tooth for many years and has significant bone loss, bone grafting is needed first, and implants and porcelain restoration follow 4–6 months later.
