A dental implant is a tooth replacement that looks just like a natural tooth. It is a permanent and durable replacement for missing teeth and fills in the gap left by a missing tooth. The implant is placed into the jawbone and acts as a new “root” for the replacement prosthetic tooth. An abutment is then attached to the exposed end of the implant, which will hold a crown in place to restore function and beauty to the smile.
Dental implants are an ideal way to restore the smile and bite for patients who have lost their teeth due to injury, disease, or some other reason. They enable patients to eat and speak normally and help restore confidence and self-esteem. They are also versatile solutions that can be used in combination with dentures to replace multiple missing teeth at once.
Patients of all ages can benefit from dental implants, which are designed to look and function just like your natural teeth. Since dental implants require more planning and maintenance than bridges or dentures, patients should have healthy gums and enough bone mass to support the implant posts. Patients should also be committed to practicing excellent oral hygiene and regular checkups and cleanings.
If you are considering a dental implant procedure, you should schedule a consultation with our office to determine if dental implants are right for you. During the consultation, our dentist will evaluate your oral health to determine whether you qualify for dental implants and talk with you about what to expect during and after treatment.
