Dental Implants Wallingford
Providing Smiles with a Solid Foundation
Many dental offices have to refer patients to outside specialists when it comes to providing dental implants. Although they can provide restoration, the surgical component is handled by someone else. At Clover Dental Care, that is not the case. Our dentists are skilled experts who provide start-to-finish implant care in-house so that you can remain in one location for the entire process. Using our CBCT scanner and a 3D printer to craft implant surgical guides, we can make receiving a more permanent smile easier and more convenient for you and your loved ones. Give us a call to discuss your interest in dental implants in Wallingford.

What Are Dental Implants?
Dental implants are commonly made of titanium and are crafted to sit within the jawbone, fusing over time through a process known as osseointegration. Mimicking the function of natural tooth roots, these prosthetics stimulate the jawbone so that facial sagging and dental drift do not occur. Their permanent position helps address all types of tooth loss as well as support dental crowns, bridges, or dentures – whichever restoration is required to meet a patient’s needs.
The 4-Step Dental Implant Process
- Initial Dental Implant Consultation – The first step you will need to complete is scheduling an appointment with one of our talented dental experts. Meeting with an implant dentist in West Haven will ensure you are a good candidate for treatment as well as determine if you need additional procedures to create a healthier environment for your new smile.
- Dental Implant Surgery – Since the entire procedure is completed in-house, there is no need for a referral. Instead, we will administer local anesthesia before placing each implant into its designated spot using a surgical guide that is crafted with the help of our 3D printer.
- Dental Implant Osseointegration/Abutment – Dental implants must properly fuse with the jawbone, which can take between 4-6 months. This process known as osseointegration is essential to the success of your procedure. Taking place while at home, you will return to our office after healing is complete to receive your metal abutments – small connectors that attach the restoration to your implants.
- Delivery of Dental Implant Restoration(s) – The final step is receiving your custom restoration, which will be placed on top of your dental implants. Based on your unique needs and preferences, we will have a natural-looking crown, bridge, or denture secured so that you can begin to enjoy the benefits of dental implants.
