what are hybrid implants?
If you want to improve the functionality and visual appeal of your smile and to restore your upper or lower arch of teeth, then you might consider hybrid implants. This advanced dental treatment uses four titanium posts that are surgically placed in the top or bottom arches of the mouth, which will then have a full-arch denture attached to finish the procedure. Hybrid implants are placed strategically into the jawbone and, following a period of integration, can then be connected to dentures or crowns. This procedure is Zensmiles in Frisco, TX, led by Dr. Mohit Shardha, provides custom-made hybrid implants to restore our patients' gorgeous smiles. Made using high-quality, durable materials for a snug fit, hybrid implants look like real teeth and can last for many years.

Candidates for hybrid implants
The best candidates for hybrid implants are people missing several or all of their teeth from both arches. Missing teeth may be caused by trauma, decay, or genetics. Hybrid implants are often a good option for those looking for a long-term solution to replace a large number of teeth. Patients considering this treatment should also have mostly healthy gums and sufficient bone tissue so that the implants can integrate correctly. Prior to recommending any dental procedure, Dr. Shardha will evaluate your oral health to determine whether hybrid implants will meet your needs.
What to Expect
Before beginning your procedure, Dr. Shardha will take CT scans, digital x-rays, and impressions to identify the ideal placement for your implants. Hybrid implants are typically surgically inserted while you are under general anesthesia. Once they're anchored into the upper or lower arches, Dr. Shardha will attach dentures or a temporary crown to the post while your permanent fixtures are being made. This will also help guarantee that the implants have had enough time to incorporate into the jaw. Once the implants are fully integrated, Dr. Shardha will attach the permanent fixtures.
