Are you tired of struggling with your smile? You need it to speak, smile, and chew, and when it’s not at the level you’d like it to be, take some time to talk to your dentist about your options. Missing teeth can be a tough thing to live with, but your oral health team is there to help you understand your prosthodontic possibilities. And one option is becoming very popular: dental implants.

A Healthy Smile Depends On Balance To Stay Safe
When you chew something tough, it puts a lot of strain on your smile. That means that if you are missing one or more of your natural teeth, you may be at risk of losing more; when one tooth goes, it’s tougher to keep the remaining ones. So, if you have recently lost a tooth due to infection, periodontal disease, or injury, make the oral health effort and speak with a dental professional about your prosthodontic possibilities.
There are a few different ways to renew smiles after adult tooth loss, including the placement of a dental bridge. This is a handing prosthetic that relies on the strength of the teeth on either side of the gap. While bridges can be useful in certain tooth loss situations, they’re not always effective. That’s why we offer a more advanced solution.
How Do Dental Implants Work?
Our office is proud to offer dental implant placement for qualified patients looking to reach a full smile again. This innovative approach to prosthodontic repair relies on a threaded titanium post, which is placed within the bone tissue of the jaw. Amazingly, through a process called osseointegration, your body heals around the threads in the post, providing a secure foundation.
After your short period of recovery, your dental team can place a beautiful new pontic to the post. Even if damaged, a prosthetic pontic can often be replaced, leaving the implant post in place. And since they work for a broad variety of tooth loss situations, dental implants are a versatile solution.
