Despite your outstanding dental hygiene practices and devotion to routine exams and cleanings, we take care to warn you when a tooth cannot be salvaged. We offer implant dentistry and dental implants as a permanent, restorative solution to any problem you may have, restoring your natural smile.
What Is a Dental Implant?
A dental implant is a tiny, screw-shaped titanium post that replaces the root of a lost tooth in implant dentistry. It is protected by a porcelain crown that not only appears but also feels like your natural tooth. With just a small procedure, the implant is placed into your jawbone – and fuses to it over time to create stable support on which a dental crown can be placed.
Why Dental Implants?
Dental implants are a wonder of dental technology, and are highly effective! They’re able to fix a wide variety of dental issues – and most importantly can look, feel, and function just like your natural tooth when paired with a dental crown.
- Single-tooth replacements have a high success rate and are great options for isolated restorations.
- Multi-tooth replacements Multiple single-tooth implants may be placed, or more ideally a dental bridge can be used to fill a gap of missing teeth.
- Implant-supported dentures A set of dentures that can replace an entire arch of teeth – secured by just a few carefully placed implants!
Dental implants can last for years and years with proper care. While they’re a fantastic treatment option, we’re always happy to discuss all the options for your specific needs to make sure you’re getting the care that’s right for you!
Are dental implants the best tooth-replacement option?
For individuals who seek a permanent, natural-looking tooth replacement, dental implants are the best alternative. They are extremely long-lasting and prevent bone loss while preserving your natural facial structure.
