A Permanent and Aesthetic Solution for Missing Teeth
What Is a Single Tooth Implant?
Dental implants can be used as a stand-alone tooth replacement or in combination with other dental work such as crowns, bridges and removable prosthetics. Thanks to modern dentistry, we can insert implants without having to wear down neighboring teeth for a fixed bridge. More often than not, dental implants are the best option for those looking to replace teeth. In this procedure, a metal post is implanted under the gums and secured to the jawbone. Over several months, the bone and metal will fuse together in order to create a synthetic root system that is just as strong as a natural root system. Once healed, a new tooth is secured to the metal post for a natural and beautiful looking smile. This procedure is commonly used in smile makeovers because it allows us to replace any teeth that are missing. Some people may also use dental implants to straighten teeth that are crooked or teeth that are not responding to orthodontics. This is an important part of a smile makeover because if all of your teeth are white and beautiful, but one is severely crooked, your new smile will feel incomplete.
