When either the tooth and/or the root are damaged, the best permanent replacement is a dental implant in conjunction with a ceramic crown. This solution both looks and functions extremely similar to a natural tooth.

Implant replacement of a missing tooth consists of three components:

The implant or “artificial root that is surgically placed in the jawbone.
The custom abutment or component the crown is adhered to.
The all ceramic crown or “artificial tooth”.

These components are installed in phases according to the complexity of the case, patient healing and aesthetics.

Treatment Options

The course of treatment described here is one of several options available. Consult Dr. Lieu to find out what the best solution is for you, given your specific condition.

Before the Procedure

Examination & 3D Scan

The dentist performs a thorough examination and obtains a 3D jaw scan in order to plan the implant placement in the jaw. The proper type of implant is selected according to available bone and proximity to adjacent teeth, sinuses, nerves and vessels.

Installing the Implant

Implant & Abutment

The gums are comfortably altered so the implant can be placed in the bone. A healing abutment protects the implant and trains the gums for the future crown. The implant will need 3-4 months to integrate with the jawbone before the crown impression is taken.

Just had the first stage of my dental implant with Dr. Lieu. He was genuinely concerned about my initial fears and not only reassured me, but carried out the procedure without a hitch and very little discomfort. Thank you Dr. Lieu!

My dental cleaning was both gentle and thorough. The hygienist gave me some good tips on flossing and how to keep my implant clean.

I was having a new Crown put onto a tooth that had a crown already on it. But I didn’t have a tooth above it and the tooth grew trying to reach the tooth above it. That left a space where a cavity (more…)
