When permanent teeth are lost, regardless of the reason or number of
teeth, dental implants can offer a “new lease on life.” They
are superior to other choices because they are solid, secure, and esthetic.
After nearly 35 years of use, they have a 90-95% proven success rate
in appropriately chosen cases.
An implant is special surgical grade titanium post, manufactured to
highly precise specifications, under strict sterile conditions, that
is inserted surgically into the jawbone below the gum surface. With proper
use of the newest anesthetics and medications you need not be concerned
about pain. As the bone bonds to the post, it forms a secure foundation
onto which your new teeth are then attached and shaped to match your
mouth. The number of teeth being replaced will determine the best kind
of restoration for you. Implants can help replace a single tooth, or
a full set of teeth. With "mini implants,” you can have "locked
in dentures". These mini implants are a one-step procedure that
involve minimally invasive surgery with no sutures and are developed
to provide greater denture stability. If you have been suffering with
partial or full dentures, or are missing teeth, or feel you need teeth
extracted,
do
not hesitate to call to be evaluated for implants.
