At Douglas Family Dental, we understand the impact of a missing tooth on your confidence and oral health. Dental implants offer a permanent solution that not only restores your smile but also preserves your natural facial structure and jawbone integrity.
What are Dental Implants?
Dental implants are titanium posts surgically placed into your jawbone beneath the gum line. These posts act as artificial tooth roots, providing a sturdy foundation for replacement teeth that look, feel and function like natural teeth.
Why Choose Dental Implants?
Dental implants offer several advantages over traditional solutions. They are a permanent fixture that integrates with your jawbone, promoting stability. They stimulate bone growth, preventing bone loss and maintaining facial contours. Implants are designed to blend seamlessly with your existing teeth, restoring your smile’s natural aesthetics without compromising appearance. Additionally, they eliminate discomfort associated with removable dentures, allowing for natural chewing and speaking abilities.
The Implant Procedure
The process involves multiple stages. After careful planning and assessment of your oral health, our team performs the implant placement surgery under local anesthesia. This procedure involves precisely positioning the titanium post into your jawbone where the missing tooth once was. Over the following months, the implant fuses with your natural bone through a process called osseointegration. This integration ensures the implant becomes a stable foundation for the replacement tooth.
