At Heavenly Smiles, Dr. Nichole Martin, your trusted Lynnwood Dentist, blends artistry and precision to craft restorations that match your bite, facial contours, and smile goals.

Our Implant Restoration Process
-
Digital Planning & Design
We capture 3D scans of your implant positions and surrounding teeth to plan optimal restoration shapes and occlusion. -
Custom Fabrication
Working with premier dental laboratories—or using in-office CAD/CAM milling—Dr. Martin ensures each prosthetic perfectly fits its implant abutment. -
Try-In & Adjustment
Before final bonding, you preview your restoration for fit, comfort, and shade. Fine adjustments guarantee a natural look and feel. -
Final Placement
Using advanced adhesive protocols, the restoration is permanently seated on the implant. Dr. Martin checks bite dynamics and makes any last refinements. -
Post-Op Care & Follow-Up
We review home-care techniques, schedule maintenance visits, and provide lifetime support to protect your investment.
FAQs
What types of implant restorations do you provide?
We offer custom implant crowns and implant supported bridges, each designed to seamlessly integrate with your existing implants and adjacent teeth for optimal function and aesthetics.A tooth extraction may be needed when a tooth is irreversibly damaged by decay, fractured beyond repair, or when crowding requires removal (such as for orthodontic preparation). Dr. Martin will evaluate X-rays and your oral health to determine if extraction is the best option.
How long does the implant restoration phase take?
Once your implants have fully osseointegrated (typically 3–6 months after placement), the restoration process—from digital planning to final placement—usually takes 2–4 appointments over 2–6 weeks, depending on the complexity and the number of restorations.
What maintenance is required for implant restorations?
Care for implant restorations like natural teeth: brush twice daily with a soft brush, use floss or interdental brushes under bridges and around crowns, and attend professional cleanings and implant check-ups every 3–6 months.
How long can I expect my implant restoration to last?
With proper hygiene and regular dental visits, implant crowns and bridges can last 15–20 years or more, while implant-supported dentures often require periodic relines but can serve you comfortably for a decade or longer.
