Replacing one or more missing teeth with dental implants is one of the best decisions you’ll ever make for your smile. Panther Creek Dental is committed to providing quality, durable restorations with incredibly lifelike results. Talk to one of our team members to determine if dental implants are right for you!
What Are Dental Implants and why choose it?
Dental implants are titanium screw-like tooth root replacements that provide a secure foundation for fixed or removable replacement teeth made to look just like your natural teeth. No other type of restoration compares to dental implants and the superior results they deliver.
Dental implants are today's gold standard for restoring missing teeth. They are the only restorations that act like natural tooth roots, stimulating the bone in the area and preventing bone loss. With implant restorations, you won't have to worry about dentures shifting or slipping. You'll speak with confidence and will bite and chew with ease. Best of all, you'll maintain your natural facial structure and your youthful, confident smile.
Implant surgery is a highly safe and predictable procedure, with more than a 95 percent success rate. With proper care, your replacement teeth have the potential of lasting a lifetime!
What Are the Types of Implant Restorations?
Here are the most common types of implant restorations:
- Single Tooth Implants: A dental implant provides a secure and stable foundation to support a dental crown, fully restoring the form and function of a single missing tooth.
- Implant-Supported Bridges: Implant-supported bridges are secured to dental implants, restoring two or more neighboring teeth with unmatched comfort and stability.
- Implant-Supported Dentures: Implant-supported dentures offer an incredibly stable and durable alternative to traditional dentures when it comes to replacing several teeth or an entire arch of teeth.
Are You a Candidate for Dental Implants?
We will surgically place your titanium implant into your jawbone and wait for a few months while it fuses to the bone in a process called osseointegration. Once the area heals, we will attach a connector called an abutment to the implant and, once again, will wait for the soft tissue to heal.
Whether you are replacing one or more missing teeth, we will create implant restorations designed to fully restore your smile's health, function, and aesthetics. The implant procedure may seem lengthy. However, you'll find that the unparalleled results are well worth your time and effort!
