Implants

Losing a tooth can be traumatic, and losing the ability to chew can be life-changing. Missing teeth can have a dramatically negative effect on the appearance of a smile. Implants are a modern-day treatment option which creates an excellent cosmetic result in replacing missing teeth. Unlike conventional bridgework, implants can provide tooth replacement without the need to cut down adjacent teeth.

This procedure involves replacing the root of a missing tooth with a dental implant, which serves as an anchor for a new tooth. The final crown or restoration is typically placed three to six months after the initial implant surgery. Implants can be used to replace a single tooth, multiple teeth, or even in cases where no teeth are present. However, not all situations are suitable for implants, and our team will discuss all available treatment options with you.

Implants are an excellent choice for patients dissatisfied with dentures. Over time, bone loss occurs in areas without teeth, leading to gum shrinkage. As bone diminishes, dentures become less secure and more difficult to wear, causing discomfort and embarrassment. However, implant-retained dentures can eliminate these issues. They provide greater stability, allowing you to enjoy a secure and comfortable fit or even eliminate the need for dentures altogether. Age is not a limitation for receiving implants.

Implants have a successful track record of over forty years in dentistry, with constant advancements in technology. They now boast an exceptionally high success rate and offer a lifetime of comfort. If you desire to chew and smile with confidence, implants may be the ideal solution for you.
