Dental Implants

Losing natural teeth can make eating painful and speaking clearly difficult. Tooth loss also can have a big impact on your self-esteem. At Demille MacKay Dental in West Valley City, UT, our dentists perform every step of dental implants treatment in-house. Learn how the team at our dental practice provides the greater Salt Lake City, UT, area with first-class dental implant treatment.

What Are Dental Implants?

/

Dental implants are posts secured in your gums and jawbone. Their main function is to support a dental restoration, like a crown or bridge. They also give support to your facial structure and prevent oral health problems that come with bone loss and gum recession.

Choose a Local Team With Proven Experience

Finding a professional to conduct your dental implant treatment can be tricky. Many dentists refer out for implant placement, which can mean extra appointments and coordinating care from multiple providers.

Instead of traveling from your regular office to an implantologist and back again, there's a way that you can receive all of your tooth care from a single reliable Utah team: seeing the dentists at DeMille MacKay Dental.

Dr. Christopher DeMille has close to two decades of dental experience. He uses surgical guides for more precise treatment and placement. ​Finally, our whole team is proud to routinely go through continuing education.

I highly recommend DeMille Mackay Dental. I've been to their location several times now and have been impressed by the high quality service, friendly staff, low cost. I recently had two teeth badly chipped in an accident and DeMille Mackay Dental got me in and repaired my teeth within 24hrs. They did an outstanding job and my teeth look so natural! They definitely pay a lot of attention to detail and care about making sure you are taken care of.

Dental Implants Can Combat Jawbone Recession

The roots of your teeth play a major role in maintaining the health of your jaw by supplying important signals to the bone tissue, keeping it strong. When teeth are lost, the lack of stimulation causes your jaw to begin to shrink. The titanium base of dental implants acts just like tooth roots, bonding to your jawbone in a process called osseointegration.

This provides a dental implant-supported restoration with unmatched stability. The restoration is directly attached to your jaw while preventing further jawbone atrophy and restoring the health, function, and form of your smile.

Implant-Supported Restoration Options Treatment Tailored to Your Needs

Dental Crowns

Addressing tooth loss early can provide patients with a new smile and support their oral and overall health. A single missing tooth can be effectively replaced with a single implant-supported dental crown. 

Explore Crowns

Dental Bridges

Missing two or three consecutive teeth due to trauma or decay can cause issues when eating and speaking. Patients with more progressive tooth loss can take advantage of a dental bridge affixed to two or three titanium implant posts.

Explore Bridges

Dentures

If you suffer from widespread or complete tooth loss, our dentists can restore your smile with a partial or full denture that looks and functions just like natural teeth. The number of implants needed to support your denture will be determined by your jawbone density.

Learn More

All-on-4®

Living with total tooth loss for a considerable amount of time can lead to severe jawbone atrophy. Patients not eligible for grafting surgery due to age, health conditions, or budget constraints can take advantage of All-on-4 implant treatment. The All-on-4 technique allows patients who do not qualify for traditional implants to receive a full denture supported by four strategically placed implant posts.

Learn More

Mini Implants

Like All-on-4, mini implants offer an alternative to traditional implants for patients who do not have sufficient bone density. Mini implants are much smaller and impact less of the surrounding tissue allowing our dentists to place four to six mini dental implants to securely anchor a lifelike denture.

Traditional Dental Implant Treatment Timeline

The doctors at DeMille MacKay Dental in West Valley City perform every stage of implant treatment in-house. This allows our dentists to monitor every step of your care so that you can enjoy stellar results. To provide a relaxing environment, we can provide nitrous oxide for your comfort. We also offer general sedation provided by an anesthesiologist. Typical dental implant treatment includes:
"From start to finish, dental implant treatment usually takes 10 to 12 months."
"From start to finish, dental implant treatment usually takes 10 to 12 months."

Initial Consultation

During your first appointment, our doctors will review your medical records and ask questions regarding your oral and overall health. We will conduct an examination of your teeth and gums to see if you are a viable candidate for implants. If any issues are found, we can include any preparatory care as part of your comprehensive treatment plan.

Implant Surgery

Using our advanced technology, our dentists will fabricate special surgical guides to ensure that the implants are precisely placed in the most strategic locations. Once in place, incisions will be made in your gums and your implants will be placed.

Healing Period

During the next four to six months, your implants will fuse with the bone in your jaw during a process known as osseointegration.

Abutment Placement

An abutment is a small connector used to attach the implant to your restoration. During a second surgery, an abutment will be placed on each implant post.

Healing Period

During the second healing period it takes six to eight weeks for your gums to heal around the abutments.

Final Restoration

Once healed, you will return to our dental office where our doctors will attach your final crown, bridge, or denture to your implants. You will leave with a fully restored smile that feels, functions, and looks just like natural teeth.

A Closer Look At Dental Restoration Placement

When Dr. DeMille places your implant, he will make an opening in your gums. Over a period of months, the implant will fuse to your jawbone and gums, so that it can properly support your abutment and restoration. Both the restoration and abutment will be discreet and natural-looking, giving you a gorgeous new smile.

I highly recommend DeMille Mackay Dental because of the excellent skilled work they do, the friendly compassionate staff and their quick response time for appointments.

My first appointment was almost a year ago, when they gave me an honest assessment of my dental health and guided me through the timing and options available to replace several failing and missing teeth.

Whenever I need to be seen quickly, they fit me in and always give me a couple of times to choose from. They took the time to develop more than one detailed treatment plan for my dentures so I could decide whether I wanted implant-secured ones or not. I was never pressured into any option, but was given the knowledge I needed to make the best decision for me.

The whole process went well and the pain was minimal. My dentures look and feel great. Dr. DeMille and his staff were wonderful during the whole process.

I recently became a new patient at DeMille Mackay Dental. First experience was a cleaning and exam, and everyone I interacted with was pleasant and professional. At that time, we came up with a reasonable care plan to get my rockstar smile I always dreamed of having. A few weeks later, I had a teeth whitening that also was a great experience with gave great results! A few weeks after that, I had caps placed on my two front teeth. I AM OBSESSED with them! With a reasonable cost, and within a month and a half, I have that rockstar smile I always wanted. The work done here is quality work, and they offer fair and upfront pricing. Everyone is kind, caring and professional. My favorite part of my experiences here is the knowledge and expertise of the staff. They explain everything they want to do/will do in terms that is easily understandable to those of us not professionals in dentistry, and will explain everything they are doing as they are doing it. As a nervous patient, this brought an ease to every procedure done. If you are looking for a great dentist that is professional, quality work and reasonably priced, you have found it at DeMille MacKay dental. Thanks you guys for the rockstar smile! :)
