TO DISCUSS URGENT IMPLANT REPAIR OPTIONS

01 / The treatment

Restore Dental Implants with Expert Precision

Dental implants are designed to last, but over time, the restoration (the visible crown or bridge on top of the implant) may wear down, become damaged, or even fall off. In these cases, the titanium post underneath often remains intact, and we can simply restore or replace the top portion.

Whether you had your implants placed years ago or recently experienced a problem, our team provides tailored solutions for:

  • Chipped, worn, or fractured implant crowns
  • Loose implant abutments
  • Broken screws or attachments
  • Bite misalignment after dental trauma or wear

We're here to help with fast, judgment-free care whenever you need it.

02 / What it covers

What Is a Dental Implant Restoration?

A dental implant restoration refers to the process of repairing or replacing the crown, bridge, or denture supported by a dental implant. Depending on the condition of your existing implant, we may:

  • Repair the damaged prosthetic
  • Re-seat or tighten loose components
  • Replace the crown with a new, better-fitting one
  • Assess if your implant needs additional support or grafting

This service is part of our full offering of restorative dentistry in Chicago, which also includes dental bridges, dental crowns, and full and partial dentures for more complex needs.

03 / Know the signs

Common Reasons for Implant Restoration or Repair

If you're experiencing any of the following, you may need dental implant repairs:

  • Your crown feels loose or shifts when chewing
  • The implant site feels sore or inflamed
  • You notice chips or cracks in the restoration
  • Food constantly gets stuck around the implant

If your implant was placed years ago, even at another office, we can still help. We welcome patients from across Wicker Park, Bucktown, Ukrainian Village, Noble Square, and the broader Chicago area.

Our goal is to restore your implant without the need for full replacement unless absolutely necessary.

PATIENT INFORMATION

Frequently Asked Questions

Can you repair a broken dental implant crown?
Yes. Most of the time, we can restore or replace the crown without disturbing the implant post. We use digital scans and intraoral cameras to get a clear picture of what's happening before we recommend any treatment. Our goal is always the most conservative, comfortable fix possible.
How long do implant restorations last?
The lifespan of an implant crown depends on several factors, including oral hygiene habits, bite forces, and the materials used. With good home care and regular checkups, a well-fitted crown can last many years. Dr. Sanders will give you a realistic picture of what to expect at your consultation.
Is the implant post removed during restoration?
No, unless it's damaged or failing. We aim to keep your original implant post intact and simply address the restoration on top. Preserving the post saves you time, discomfort, and cost.
What causes implants to fail or loosen?
Over time, wear, bite misalignment, or teeth grinding can affect your restoration. Sometimes the screw holding the crown in place simply loosens with normal use. A quick exam helps us identify the exact cause and find the right fix.
Do you offer implant repairs if I got my implant elsewhere?
Absolutely. We treat many patients from other offices who need a second opinion or expert restoration. Just bring any records or X-rays you have, and we'll take it from there.
Do you offer same-day implant restorations in Wicker Park?
Depending on the case, we may be able to offer expedited treatment. Call us to talk through your situation and we'll do our best to see you quickly.
