Implant Restorations at Pearly Dental Care
A Restoration to Look and Function Like a Natural Tooth
Implant restoration refers to the placement of a custom-fabricated dental crown onto a dental implant that has already been surgically positioned in the jaw. The implant itself is a small titanium post that a specialist inserts into the jawbone, where it functions as an artificial tooth root. After the implant has fully integrated with the surrounding bone, it offers a stable, long-term foundation on which a lifelike crown can be secured. The finished restoration closely resembles a natural tooth in appearance, sensation, and function, allowing it to support normal biting and contribute to an intact smile. Patients in San Jose, Sunnyvale, Santa Clara, CA, and the surrounding communities who require a crown placed on an existing implant are welcome to schedule an appointment with Dr. Khatibian.
What to Expect During the Process
After the implant has healed and Dr. Khatibian determines it is ready to proceed, the restoration phase follows a clear sequence. Detailed impressions or digital scans of your mouth are taken so that a dental laboratory can fabricate a crown matched to the size, shape, and shade of your adjacent teeth. A temporary crown may be placed during the period while the permanent restoration is being produced. Once the final crown is complete, Dr. Khatibian attaches it to the implant by means of a small connecting component called an abutment. This appointment is typically brief and comfortable, and most patients leave with a fully restored smile on the same visit.
