The Esthetic Benefits

Each individual dental implant we place will be completed with a dental crown. The crown addresses the visible portion of your new tooth, crafted from materials that are not only durable, but that will color-matched to blend with your smile. In addition, if you multiple missing teeth, more than one implant post could be used to support a bridge, or to provide a fixed full or partial denture. Each prosthetic will be designed based on detailed digital images of your smile, ensuring a comfortable fit and of course, a lifelike appearance.

Stability and Longevity

But what makes them so stable? The implant posts are made from titanium, a biocompatible material the body accepts as natural bone structure. Which means when your new post is in place, this stimulates the growth of tissue around it and secures it for decades to come, possibly even a lifetime. They function like natural roots, and help prevent the breakdown of tissue that often occurs following tooth loss. You then have new teeth that act like natural ones, and will be able to enjoy your favorite foods again and speak without difficulty.

The Long-Term Benefits

When you replace a missing tooth with a dental implant, you prevent the loss of mass and density in the jawbone that follows tooth loss. You then limit the risk of further tooth loss, and prevent your facial structure from breaking down and leading to a prematurely aged appearance. Replacing missing teeth also prevent issues like misalignment, TMJ disorder, and even bruxism (teeth grinding).
