Abutments and Placement 770x500

Abutment dental

Dental abutments play a vital role in ensuring the success of your dental implant. At Neola Dental, we provide expert abutment placement to secure your implant and create a stable foundation for crowns or bridges.

What are dental abutments, and why are they important?

A dental abutment is a small connector that links your implant to the replacement tooth. It ensures stability, strength, and alignment for your restoration, making it a critical step in the dental implant process.

Abutments also help distribute chewing forces evenly, preventing damage to the implant or surrounding teeth. Whether you’re getting a crown or an implant-supported bridge, a well-placed abutment is essential for a successful outcome.

What is the step-by-step process of abutments and placement in the clinic?

The process of placing dental abutments is a critical step in completing your dental implant treatment. At Neola Dental, we follow a meticulous approach to ensure precision, comfort, and long-term success. Here’s what you can expect:

1 Healing and Preparation of the Implant Site

After the implant has been placed in your jawbone, a healing period of several weeks or months is required. During this time, the implant integrates with the bone (a process known as osseointegration), creating a solid foundation for the abutment.

2 Exposing the Implant

Once the site is healed, we make a small incision to expose the implant. This step allows us to prepare the implant for the placement of the abutment.

3 Attaching the Abutment

The dental abutment is secured onto the implant, serving as the connector between the implant and the final restoration. We use high-quality materials, such as titanium or zirconia, to ensure strength and durability.

4 Taking Impressions for the Restoration

With the abutment in place, we take precise impressions of your mouth to create a custom crown, bridge, or denture that will fit seamlessly. This step ensures the final restoration matches your natural teeth perfectly.

5 Final Restoration Placement

Once your custom restoration is ready, we securely attach it to the abutment. The result is a natural-looking tooth or bridge that restores both function and aesthetics.

At Neola Dental, our team prioritizes your comfort and satisfaction at every stage of the process. From start to finish, we are committed to providing a seamless and positive experience.

Great new dental office in Mineola. Open on Saturday mornings! Great staff and decor. They have thought of every detail from the moment you walk in, the forms get filled on an iPad.

The staff is very polite and punctual! I love My results! 10/10 highly recommended.
I changed to this office recently because I moved and I couldn’t love it more. Dr. Contreras is so knowledgeable, the sweetest I’ve ever had and she went above and beyond to make sure I understood everything. I loved the girls at the front desk, so nice and lovely. Esther, the hygienist was awesome.Overall, my experience was amazing.

Frequently Asked Questions about Abutment dental

Dental abutments are usually made of titanium, zirconia, or stainless steel. Titanium is the most common because it’s super strong and works well with the body, while zirconia is a great option for front teeth since it blends in better with your natural smile.

It depends on where the implant is placed. For back teeth, the abutment is usually hidden under the crown. For front teeth, a small portion might be slightly visible until the final crown is placed, but don’t worry—it’s temporary!

Coverage varies by plan. Some insurance policies cover part of the cost, especially if the procedure is medically necessary. We’re happy to check your benefits and help you understand your options!

Like any procedure, there are some risks, but they’re rare. Mild swelling or discomfort right after placement is normal, but serious complications like infection or implant failure are uncommon when the procedure is done by a skilled professional. Keeping up with good oral hygiene and regular checkups helps everything heal smoothly.
