We provide a reliable way to guide growing smiles and improve dental alignment early on.
The loss of one or more tooth may significantly effect a person’s day to day lifestyle along with the appearance of their smile. Once a tooth is missing, it may alter the frame and shape of an individual’s mouth.
A dental implant is manufactured from titanium material. The dentist will secure each titanium implant into the bone. The implant is capable of supporting various tooth restorations including dental crowns, to multiple dental bridges. Each time a dental implant is fixed into the bone, it bonds to the jaw and functions similar to the root of a natural tooth.
Implant dentistry is usually a beneficial option for any individual with good overall health and are administered during a surgical procedure while the patient is under local anesthetic.
The placement of the implant is a delicate procedure where a titanium rod is inserted into the jawbone. This rod serves as the foundation for the fixed tooth because it is extremely durable and stable.
After the implant has healed, a custom crown is placed over the implant to give you a normal smile. The final restoration integrates perfectly with the other teeth so that the end result looks and feels very natural.
Taking care of a dental implant is very easy and similar to the way you take care of your normal teeth.
The best candidate for a dental implant procedure is a person with healthy gums and adequate bone structure and a willingness to follow good oral hygiene practices.
