Implants
A dental implant is an option to replace a missing tooth. We can replace a single or multiple teeth in less than an hour. No long waits as is the case with traditional implants. These newer implants also cost about 40% less than the older conventional implants and require no invasive surgery. This permanent solution has the advantage over bridge work that it does not stress the surrounding teeth for support. Implants can also be used as support as part of an implant bridge. This is an alternative to partial dentures, and has several advantages. First, there is no adjustment period for the patient to acclimatize to. Once the work is done, you only feel teeth, not metal supports intruding into the mouth. Second, this slows the bone loss occasioned by missing teeth. Third, there is no discomfort or difficulty in eating. And, best of all, of course, they don’t have to be taken out at night.
