Are you currently struggling with missing teeth? Dental implants are a revolutionary tooth replacement solution that can help change your smile and your life! Whether you are missing one tooth or many, implants are a great option for patients looking to regain a complete, fully functioning smile!

What Are Dental Implants?

Dental implants are a state-of-the-art method for tooth replacement. With dental implants, patients can regain a beautiful, healthy, and carefree smile. What sets implants above other replacement solutions is that they are surgically placed into the jawbone. Implants are small, biocompatible posts that fuse with the jawbone to create a permanent foundation for replacement teeth to hold onto.

Dental Implant Restorations

After implants fuse with the bone, a crown, bridge, or denture can be attached to the implants. These tooth restorations are custom-made with durable materials and are designed to look just like real teeth! Depending on your tooth replacement needs, your dentist will recommend which restoration style is right for you.

For example, dental crowns on top of dental implants are used for single tooth replacement. Bridges can replace one tooth or multiple teeth in a row. Full dentures can replace a full arch of teeth and partial dentures can replace multiple teeth in various places.

Benefits of Dental Implants

Implants offer a wide array of benefits for patients with missing teeth. Some of their many benefits include:

  • Can replace one tooth or many
  • Simple to maintain
  • Improved jawbone health
  • Permanent tooth replacement
  • Prevents cheeks from appearing sunken
  • Speak and eat with ease
