Dental Implants
Dental implants provide permanent, secure substitutes for lost teeth. With posts made of a biocompatible titanium alloy, dental implants are today's best alternative to natural teeth. Dental implants can also function as anchors to support traditional dental prosthetics, such as bridges or dentures.
Many of our patients believe that implants have changed not only their smiles and appearance, but also their overall well being! You will once again smile with confidence and eat the foods you love after implant therapy. Dental implants offer advantages to other prosthetic options and can enhance your quality of life.
- Esthetically, dental implants create replacements that look like real teeth.
- Dental implants feel and act similarly to your original teeth. With dental implants, you can eat and chew without pain or irritation, which relieves stress on your digestive system and can improve overall health.
- Denture adhesives aren't required with implants, and implants as denture anchors prevent movement, including rocking and slippage, of dentures.
- The taste of food can actually improve after implant therapy. Without a plastic covering over the roof of your mouth, you will enjoy natural flavors and sensations again.
- Dental implants help maintain your jawbone structure and support facial features (cheeks and lips). They reduce or eliminate bone atrophy associated with tooth loss, which causes shrinkage of jawbone tissue and cosmetic facial changes.
