Dental implants are artificial tooth roots made of titanium that provide a permanent base for fixed or removable replacement teeth. They work by integrating with your jawbone, offering strong and stable support for the artificial teeth.

Advanced Dental Implants and Dental Oral Surgery Solutions
If you're looking for a solution to missing or damaged teeth, our Dental Implants may be the perfect option for you. Our procedure involves replacing the roots of your teeth with metal pins that look like screws and then placing an artificial tooth that looks and functions just like a real one. Our specialist, Dr. Kamran Raja, is an expert in Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery and performs this procedure through oral surgery.
During surgery, the gums are opened and the bone is exposed. The metal post of the dental implant is then placed deep into the bone to serve as the root of the tooth. Our clinic, located in Manassas, offers a well-accepted alternative to dentures or bridges that do not fit well or when a lack of natural tooth roots does not allow for traditional tooth replacements. You deserve to have a beautiful smile again! Don't wait any longer, schedule a consultation with us today to see if Dental Implants are the perfect solution for you.
Parts of a Dental Implant
- Implant: a titanium post that is inserted into the jawbone to replace the root of a natural tooth.
- Abutment: a structure that connects to the implant and serves as a support for the dental crown or prosthesis.
- Crown: the visible part of the dental implant that resembles a natural tooth and is placed on top of the abutment.
Step-by-Step Guide to Inserting a Dental Implant
At our Manassas clinic, the surgery is performed in a completely sterile field with the assistance of anesthesiologists to provide sedation if required.
Step 1
In the first step, the implant is placed beneath the gum in the location where the root of the natural tooth used to be. It is then left to heal.
Step 2
After the implant has healed, the second step is taken: the implant is surgically exposed by removing a portion of the gum that covers it.
Step 3
The third step is crucial as it is verified that the implant has integrated properly and is correctly connected to the previously integrated abutment.
Step 4
Finally, in the fourth step, the prosthetic is created and attached to the osseointegrated dental implant once both the abutment and implant have successfully healed.
