Learn More About Dental Implants
At Grant Family Dentistry, we are happy to help patients with all of their dental needs. We know that it can be challenging for patients who are experiencing complications with their dental health to reach out for care. With the start of the new year, now is the perfect time to make your oral health a priority. If you are in need of dental treatments or a tooth replacement option, we have a number of treatments that can restore your oral health. One treatment in particular that can be used to correct many complications is dental implants.
What are Dental Implants?
A dental implant can replace one tooth or multiple teeth and is used when the entire tooth root and tooth structure need to be replaced. The treatment is a multi-step process that involves placing a post that acts as a tooth root into the jawbone below the gumline. Once healed, a replacement tooth is fixed to the post, completing the treatment. Dental implants are a wonderful option for patients who are newly missing a tooth or perhaps have had previous treatments, such as dentures, and are looking for a more permanent solution.
Benefits of Dental Implants
Patients who receive dental implants often comment that they wish they received treatment sooner. Dental implants are a permanent solution that function and look like natural teeth. We are able to perfectly color match the tooth structure to your natural teeth. Patients love that they are able to once again eat their favorite foods with no complications or worries about teeth breaking or falling out. Other benefits include:
- No need to update hardware or worry about continuous repairs
- No concern of jawbone loss
- Easy to clean and care for
