The answer could be “yes!” Many patients, today, from teenagers to active retired people, enjoy the benefits and advantages of dental implants. Whether you’re missing just one tooth or several teeth, you may be a patient who could benefit from the esthetic and functional enjoyment of dental implants.
Using the latest treatment techniques and materials available, we can surgically implant a space-age material, such as titanium, into your jawbone as an anchor for the replacement tooth or teeth (such as a crown or a bridge). Implanted teeth function the way your natural teeth use to—sometimes even better!
Having dental implants helps elevate your sense of self-confidence, especially when talking, chewing, or just being out in public with people you enjoy. Implants are the most stable, optimal, and esthetic way to restore or enhance your smile to its original appearance. They eliminate the necessity to grind down natural teeth, which is required for bridgework. Implants can also eliminate the need for a partial denture.

For the right patient missing the right tooth, the Tooth Fairy has bailed us out again. A lot of people are missing a single tooth. Until recently, the only options for replacement took the form of a bridge. Dentistry calls this gizmo a fixed or removable partial denture and, for it to fit properly, a fair bit of work is involved to remove enamel from neighboring teeth.
When a tooth is lost, nothing is ever the same. The entire balance of a healthy mouth is lost: the bite goes off, opposing teeth overgrow in unpredictable directions, facial appearance ages.
