Why Restore Dental Implants with Kraja and Sidhu Dental?
For many, the gap left by a missing tooth is a constant reminder of what was once there. Dental implants solve the problem of missing teeth – but what happens when they break?
Dental implant restoration centers around replacing the tooth crown portion of your orthodontic device—the visible functional component in your mouth. Without the implant crown, the dental implant would serve no real purpose in your mouth. This process restores both form and function to your oral structure by utilizing a titanium implant foundation within your jawbone.
Benefits of Dental Implant Restoration Services
Dental implant restoration offers a multitude of benefits, including the benefits of dental implants, from restoring function and aesthetics to preventing bone loss and enhancing oral health. With a success rate exceeding 95%, these implants provide a permanent solution for missing teeth, mimicking the look and feel of natural teeth.
Improved speech, comfort, and stability are additional advantages, along with the ability to enjoy a varied diet without restrictions.
Here are just a few reasons why our Silver Spring patients choose this life-changing service:

Holistic Benefits

Understanding Dental Implant Restoration
Dental implant restoration is a comprehensive process designed to replace missing teeth with a functional and aesthetically pleasing solution.
- This process begins with the surgical placement of titanium implants into the jawbone, providing a secure foundation that simulates a natural tooth root for new teeth.
- The restoration process is a tooth replacement option that revitalizes the oral cavity by maintaining jawbone integrity, which is often compromised when teeth are lost.
- By choosing dental implants, patients can regain their confidence and improve their quality of life significantly.
- Dental implant restoration is preferred over traditional dentures or bridges, as it offers a more permanent solution that integrates seamlessly with the patient’s existing dental structure, providing both functionality and aesthetic appeal.
Ultimately, dental implant restorations act as a reliable and long-lasting option for individuals seeking to restore their smiles.

Kraja and Sidhu’s Dental Implant Restoration Process
Dental implant restoration is a two-phase process involving the surgical placement of titanium anchors into the jawbone (the actual implant) and the attachment of posts for replacement teeth (restoration).
The entire dental restoration procedure usually takes six to eight months. Most of our Silver Spring patients do not experience any disruption in their daily life.
Personalized Evaluation
Embark on your restoration journey with a welcoming dental consultation. Dr. Kraja or Sidhu will conduct a comprehensive dental and radiographic assessment, delving into your health history. These consultations will cater to your individual needs and concerns. Remembering the context of tooth loss is crucial for selecting the appropriate materials and design for the new implant restoration.
Precision Extraction (If Necessary)
We offer gentle teeth extraction services for teeth that are damaged beyond repair, ensuring a clean slate for your implant. This is needed to make sure we can fit in the restored implants seamlessly.
Bone Grafting for Strength
In most cases where jawbone integrity is compromised due to the defect in the bone left after the extraction, we provide bone grafting to ensure a solid foundation for your implant, utilizing the latest techniques for optimal results.
Expert Implant Placement
With precision and care, our surgeons insert the titanium implant, the cornerstone of your new smile, ensuring it perfectly fuses with your jawbone for unparalleled stability.

Dental Implants Restoration F.A.Q – Silver Spring’s Most-Asked Questions
Consulting with Dr. Kraja or Dr. Sidhu at our Silver Spring office will provide you with personalized advice based on an assessment of your oral health, ensuring you choose the implant solution that best fits your lifestyle, dental history and needs, making you a good candidate for a successful outcome.
Are implants very painful?
Dental implant surgery may cause minor discomfort, but modern anesthetics and sedation effectively manage pain throughout and after the procedure.
Post-operative soreness is common but can typically be eased with prescribed or over-the-counter pain relievers. The controlled trauma from the implant placement contrasts with the intensity of a tooth extraction, often resulting in lower post-operative discomfort for patients undergoing implant procedures.
Do implants ever feel normal?
Yes, after the healing process, dental implants are designed to feel, look, and function like your natural teeth. Many patients report that implants feel so natural they forget they have them.
Do implants get bigger as they heal?
Implants themselves do not get bigger. Swelling of the gums and surrounding tissues during the healing process might give the impression of growth, but this is temporary and subsides as healing progresses.
Can an implant be removed?
Yes, if necessary, an implant can be removed. This might be due to infection, misalignment, or the implant failing to integrate with the bone. After addressing the issue, a new implant can often be placed.
How do you make dental implants heal faster?
Healing can be supported by following your dentist’s aftercare instructions, maintaining excellent oral hygiene, avoiding smoking, and ensuring a nutritious diet to support bone health
Can dental implants be renewed?
Yes, dental implants can be renewed or replaced if necessary. While the implant post (titanium screw) is designed to last a lifetime, the crown, bridge, or denture attached to it may need replacement over time due to wear.
When should a dental implant be renewed?
- Crown or bridge wear – Most implant crowns last 10-15 years before needing replacement.
- Bone loss around the implant – If significant bone loss occurs, the implant site may need bone grafting and replacement.
- Implant failure – In rare cases, an implant may fail due to infection (peri-implantitis) or improper integration with the bone.
How are implants renewed?
- If only the crown or bridge is damaged, it can be replaced without removing the implant post.
- If the implant itself fails, it may require removal and reinsertion after the area has healed.
