Dental Implants

As the most permanent teeth replacement solution, dental implants can last you a lifetime. The crowns, bridges, or dentures anchor attractively and fill out your smile, blending seamlessly with existing natural teeth.

First, an oral surgeon places a small, medical grade titanium or titanium alloy post (the implant) into your jawbone. This functions as the root of your new replacement tooth. Titanium is a biocompatible metal, and in about 3 to 4 months the surrounding bone fuses to the implant in a process called osseointegration. Dr. Avanzato tops the implanted posts with prosthetic teeth that look and feel natural.

Benefits of Dental Implants

• Freedom from unreliable adhesive or suction methods that traditional dentures require to stay in place.
• If you opt for an implant-retained bridge, no surrounding teeth will be ground down to anchor it, unlike traditional bridges.
• This solution is extremely long lasting.
• Dental implants deter jawbone loss, which occurs when teeth are missing.

Dental Implants Will Improve Your Lifestyle
Implants fill in the spaces left by missing teeth, and they look and feel just like natural teeth. No one else needs to know about your dental implants but your dentist! Friends, family, and strangers will only notice your vibrant smile.

Eat what you like without embarrassment or hindrance
Like others with missing teeth, you have probably experienced anxiety sitting down to share a meal with friends or smiling for a photo. What if you can’t chew food properly or the camera captures the gap in your smile for posterity? Some tooth replacement methods can address superficial needs, but only dental implants can restore your mouth’s full function and aesthetics. The value of living with stable, reliable teeth is immeasurable. Dental implants allow you to live life to the fullest.
