A dental implant is a non-removable restoration that acts as our secure foundation to crowns, bridges, or dentures. An implant consists of three elements:
The main part of the implant is a synthetic titanium root that fuses with your jaw bone.
This acts as the attachment for your new custom-made restoration.
Placed on top of the implant, this could be a dental crown, bridge or a set of dentures.

Discover the step-by-step process we use to restore your smile.
Our process begins with a thorough evaluation and consultation from Dr. Silc. During this time, she’ll review your dental history, identify your individual needs, and determine if you are an ideal candidate for this procedure.
With the use of our CBCT scanner, Dr. Silc can render 3D images of your entire jaw so she can accurately plan the exact insertion points for the implants and produce more predictable outcomes.
We partner with general dentists to create an ideal implant solution based on your specific needs. Dr. Silc uses various implant providers and will send over all the necessary data so our lab can construct your unique implant.
The first step when placing dental implants in Schaumburg, IL involves Dr. Silc inserting the post into your jawbone. After the implant has fused with your bone, the abutment can be placed, and the restoration fitted.
Single Tooth Implants
If you are missing one tooth, a single tooth dental implant could effortlessly solve your problem. Commonly topped with a dental crown, these implants look and function just like your natural tooth root.
After your implant is placed, you’ll be able to speak, chew, and laugh as if nothing ever happened. Also, because only a single tooth needs to be replaced, your surrounding natural teeth will be fully preserved, and your oral health restored.
