Are you missing teeth? Dental implants could be the ideal solution for you. Designed to replace an entire tooth, dental implants not only restore your smile but also significantly improve your oral health and function, offering long-term benefits.
Dental Implant: Two Key Components
The implant post is a small, screw-like fixture typically made of titanium or another biocompatible material. Dr. Benson Bagley will surgically place this post into your jawbone at the site of the missing tooth, effectively replacing your tooth root. Once the post is in place and your mouth has healed, it will function like a natural tooth root, stimulating your jawbone to maintain its health and providing a stable foundation for your replacement tooth.
The implant restoration is the final step in the process, capping the implant post to complete your treatment. Depending on your specific needs and the teeth you’re missing, this restoration could be a single dental crown, a dental bridge, or even a complete or partial denture. Each restoration is custom-made to fit your smile perfectly, ensuring a natural-looking and beautiful result.
Dental implants are designed to look, feel, and function just like your natural teeth. With proper care, they can last a lifetime, making them a reliable and effective option for tooth replacement.
