Dental Implants: Replace the Whole Tooth

When one or more teeth are lost, a dental implant is often the best choice.

A dental implant consists of a threaded titanium post that fuses with the bone of the jaw.  Once this post is stable, an abutment and crown are attached and torqued into place. By doing this, you have replaced not only the crown of the tooth, but the root as well. Unlike dental bridges and partials, this tooth replacement method is a stand-alone option and doesn't involve any adjustment or preparation to any other teeth. Dental implants are very stable and are considered a long lasting restoration.

Dental implants have a long track record of success in patients that are good candidates.

Dental implants are also used to secure conventional dentures. Two or more implants and their abutments are placed in the jaw, then a precision attachment is imbedded into your denture. These precision attachments then snap onto the implant abutment securing the denture to the jaw. This can greatly enhance a patient’s ability to chew.

Good Candidates for Dental Implants

Many factors go into determining whether or not you are a good candidate for dental implants.  A comprehensive exam with x-ray analysis is done to determine if you are good candidate for implants. If you have any questions please do not hesitate to call!

Scott Family Dentistry offers strong and affordable implants to replace the tooth. The implants provide a perfect surface for replacement. The treatment is highly recommended for patients who have lost one or more teeth. Most people lose their teeth due to periodontal diseases, injury, diseases, and tooth decay. Before the dentist recommends dental implants, he will first carry out an x-ray analysis.
