Rebuild Your Smile With Implants

Find the Right Solution

Modern dental implants are usually made from titanium, a metal that fuses with your jawbone. When the fusing process is complete, these small posts can be fitted with replacement teeth. If you are missing one tooth, you can receive an implant-crown combination. Your new crown will attach to the top of a single implant. It will restore your smile and your biting power. A dental bridge can also replace several missing teeth in a row. Unlike a standard fixed bridge, this restoration will be anchored by at least two implants.

Choose Full-Arch Replacement

If you have an entire arch of teeth missing, your dentist can secure a set of dentures to your implants to give them superb comfort and stability. You won’t have to worry about your teeth slipping out of place.

You can choose removable dentures or dentures that stay fixed in place. Either way, chances are no one will know they aren’t your real teeth and you’ll avoid the shortcomings of traditional dentures.

Common Questions About Dental Implants

How do dental implants work?

Dental implants have revolutionized tooth replacement because, unlike stand-alone restorations, they act as artificial tooth roots. Placed inside the jawbone, these titanium screws fuse naturally to the bone as you heal, strengthening it over time and keeping the restoration firmly attached to the implant for a bite strength that’s nearly the same as that of a real tooth.

 

Will dental implants work for me?

When you lose a tooth, the gums and jawbone in that area start to deteriorate, threatening the structural stability of your mouth. That’s why it’s important to replace missing teeth right away. If too much time has passed, you may not have enough bone mass in your jaw to support a dental implant. We can preserve the bone with a grafting procedure after an extraction so that doesn’t happen. It’s also possible to renew bone strength with a graft.

 

Are dental implants worth it?

Although they are more expensive than conventional dentures, dental implants are a worthy investment in your oral and overall health and your quality of life moving forward. That’s because they’re a potentially lifelong solution that preserves the structural foundation of your mouth. They prevent future tooth loss, allow you to eat what you love, and help you enjoy better nutrition, digestion, and long-term health.

 

When should I get dental implants?

If you are missing any number of teeth, you owe it to yourself to consider getting implants. They are designed to function as artificial roots for your replacement teeth. Implants make crowns, bridges, and dentures more secure. They prevent bone loss by stimulating your jaw, and they restore your biting power so you can eat anything you want.

 

Can dental implants be removed?

Technically, dental implants can be removed, although it is unlikely you would ever need to have that done. Once your implants have been placed in your jawbone, they completely bond with it and can last for decades, if not the rest of your life. Your replacement teeth that are anchored to your implants have an average life span of five to 10 years.
