Tooth loss is often followed by bone loss, which can change your face shape and make you look older. Teeth next to the gap can also move out of place, making it harder to chew and potentially affecting your nutrition. Replacing a missing tooth with an implant helps prevent these problems and keeps your smile and health intact.
Dental implants are titanium or zirconia posts that serve as artificial tooth roots. They are implanted into the jawbone to support restorations like crowns, bridges, and dentures.
In this case, a single lost tooth is restored with a titanium implant, accompanied by an abutment and a dental crown. The abutment serves as a connector, enabling your dentist to attach a denture, bridge, or crown securely to the implant.
Dental implants are designed to last your entire life, providing a permanent solution that mimics the strength and stability of natural teeth, allowing you to eat, talk, and smile without worry.
Implants stimulate your jawbone, preventing the bone deterioration that occurs with tooth loss. This helps maintain your facial structure and prevents the aged look associated with missing teeth.
Unlike bridges, implants do not require altering neighboring teeth, which preserves more of your natural tooth structure and improves long-term oral health.
Implants are as close as you can get to natural teeth, improving comfort with a secure fit that boosts confidence while speaking and smiling in public.
No matter how extensive your tooth loss, dental implants can be used to support various types of dental restorations.
For those missing a single tooth, a dental crown attached to an implant provides a complete and seamless restoration.
If you are missing several consecutive teeth, an implant-supported bridge offers a reliable solution to enhance your smile.
For those seeking a better solution than traditional dentures, implant-supported removable dentures provide superior stability, comfort, and functionality, significantly enhancing quality of life.
Consider Fixed Full Arch Restoration Implants for a comprehensive solution to extensive tooth loss. Utilizing advanced techniques like All-on-4 and All-on-X, these implants anchor a full set of prosthetic teeth, restoring your entire dental arch. This dramatically enhances oral functionality and aesthetics, giving you a complete, vibrant smile
