If you have one or more missing teeth, opting for a dental implant or an implant-supported denture can be an excellent choice, as they offer the same appearance, feel, and function as natural teeth. Our team has extensive experience in replacing missing teeth with implants.
Why Choose a Dental Implant?
Dental implants not only look, function, and feel like natural teeth, but they can also prevent bone loss that can occur when a tooth is lost. Implants can be used to support single crowns, bridges, and fixed dentures to restore the natural appearance of almost any smile.
Single implants
A single implant is usually recommended if you're missing one or two teeth. We place an artificial root in your jaw and then attach a single crown to the implant. Once the implant is in place, it looks and feels like a natural tooth and keeps the adjacent teeth from shifting.
Implant-supported dentures
Implant-supported dentures are a good option for people who have lost multiple teeth. This procedure involves placing multiple implants into your jaw and then attaching a denture to the implants. The implant-supported denture will never shift or move while you eat or talk.
Implant bridges
An implant bridge closely resembles a traditional bridge, but it is supported by dental implants rather than natural teeth. Implant-supported bridges are used in cases where there are three or more consecutive missing teeth.
