Single Tooth Implants
When it comes to replacing a missing tooth, a single dental implant can be the most effective solution. Single tooth implants consist of three components: the implant itself, which acts as the root; the abutment, which holds the replacement tooth; and the crown, which is the visible part of the tooth. This three-part structure ensures a sturdy, long-lasting replacement that is both functional and aesthetically pleasing. By mimicking the natural structure of your tooth, it can provide a seamless, natural look and feel.
Implant-Supported Bridges
For patients missing several teeth in a row, implant-supported bridges may be the preferred choice. Traditional dental bridges rely on adjacent healthy teeth for support, which may put unnecessary strain on these teeth. However, implant-supported bridges use dental implants for anchorage. This not only preserves the adjacent teeth but also provides a more robust and reliable base for the bridge. This solution restores the function and beauty of your smile while providing long-term stability.
Full Arch Restoration
Full arch restoration, or full mouth dental implants, are a comprehensive solution for those missing most or all of their teeth in the upper or lower jaw. This advanced method utilizes as few as four strategically placed implants to support a full set of replacement teeth. This can be a life-changing solution, offering a complete transformation of the smile. Not only does this restore full function and aesthetic appeal, but it also helps maintain the shape of the face and bone structure of the jaw, which can be compromised with extensive tooth loss.
The Importance Of Dental Implants
Dental implants aren’t just about enhancing the appearance of your smile. They play a significant role in preserving oral health by preventing bone loss, maintaining the alignment of adjacent teeth, and allowing for normal chewing and speaking functions. Implants are durable, long-lasting, and, most importantly, they can significantly improve your quality of life.
