Free Dental Implant Consultation
Replacing missing teeth can be a pain. If you’re only missing one tooth, you’ll likely need a crown and bridge to replace it. This means you’ll need to place crowns on the surrounding teeth to support the replacement tooth between them. For years dentists have looked for ways to perform single tooth replacement without unnecessarily damaging the surrounding teeth. Dental implants allow your dentist to do just that, fully restoring your tooth to its natural look, feel and function.
Implants are not only great for single tooth replacement, they’re a permanent replacement option for multiple missing teeth or even full implant supported dentures. The idea is simple, gum tissue and jawbone density diminish without a root to stimulate healthy growth. This is one of the main reasons why dentures need to be refitted or replaced periodically and regular denture wearers notice a change in the shape of their face as gum tissue and jawbone density recede. Traditional replacement teeth are also weaker than natural teeth. Patients have difficulty eating some crunchy, chewy or tough foods. Dental implants replace the entire tooth, including the root anchoring your replacement teeth firmly to your gums so you can eat what you want without fear.
