An estimated 50 million Americans are missing all their teeth, and 69 percent of adults have lost at least one tooth. Missing teeth can hurt your oral health and confidence. Remaining teeth can shift, and your diet may be restricted. With implant dentistry, we can replace lost teeth, improve your appearance, and revive your oral health.
Why Choose Dental Implants?
Implant dentistry offers patients distinct advantages over other replacement options, including:
The Dental Implant Process
The implant dentistry process begins with oral surgery. Dr. Puzey (a Periodontist) will place the small, titanium implants into your jawbone. As your mouth heals, the bone tissue will naturally fuse to the biocompatible dental implants, creating artificial tooth roots. The surgery is straightforward and simple. Dr. Becker-Walker will then position custom crowns onto the titanium implants. With dental implants, you will once again smile with grace and confidence.
Implant Dentures
If you would like to improve the comfort and security of your dentures, ask us about implant dentures. Normal dentures are held in place with adhesive creams or natural suction. With implant dentures, Dr. Puzey will insert several posts into your jaw. We will also modify your denture so that you can secure your appliance to the posts. Implant dentures will give patients the freedom and stability of a secure smile.
