Restore Your Smile with a Durable Single-Tooth Implant
In many situations, only a single tooth needs to be replaced. If you are facing this issue, our expert periodontists may suggest a single-tooth dental implant to restore your smile. A single-tooth implant is a durable and stable tooth replacement option, comprising an implant post and an implant crown. The implant post is surgically inserted into your jawbone at the site of the missing tooth, serving as a new root. Once you have healed from the implant placement, our periodontists will craft a custom crown and place it atop the post to complete your smile restoration.
Benefits of Single-Tooth Implants
Single-tooth implants offer several significant advantages over other tooth replacement methods. Unlike dental bridges, which often require altering adjacent teeth, an implant preserves the health and structure of neighboring teeth. Moreover, implants integrate with your jawbone, maintaining bone health and preventing the bone loss that typically occurs with missing teeth. This integration helps ensure that your teeth and implants remain stable and secure.
Aesthetically, implants provide a more natural appearance and are easier to care for with regular brushing and flossing. Implants are considered the gold standard for tooth replacement because they look, feel, and function like natural teeth. With proper care, which includes good oral hygiene and regular dental check-ups, implants can last a lifetime.
Who’s a Candidate for Dental Implants
Most individuals are good candidates for dental implants. However, if you have underlying issues such as tooth decay, periodontal disease or other conditions, our periodontists will address these problems before proceeding with the implant placement.
