Put an End to Missing Teeth… Permanently
While traditional dentures and bridges can replace missing teeth and provide generally good results, these treatments do not address tooth roots. Untreated tooth roots from missing teeth cause continuous jawbone shrinkage, which can create wrinkles and sagging skin – and make you look older.
By securing your restoration with dental implants, you can not only improve your teeth’s durability but also have artificial tooth roots that stimulate the jawbone and promote better overall oral health.
Who Is a Candidate for Dental Implants?
Dental implants can be a good solution if you, or someone you know, is experiencing:
- Single tooth or multiple teeth loss
- Loose or uncomfortable dentures
- Difficulties eating certain foods
- A speech impediment
- Weak, broken, cracked, or decaying teeth
- A shift in teeth
- Sagging or shifting facial features
Find Your Right Fit
While dental implants and dentures can both look and function like natural teeth – as well as address tooth loss – there are clear differences between the two that may help you decide which is your best fit.
The main benefits of dental implants include:
- Implants look and function just like natural teeth.
- Implants can replace single or multiple teeth.
- Implants will allow you to smile with confidence again.
- Implants address missing tooth roots that help preserve facial structure.
- Implants won’t shift or slip in your mouth, which allows you to eat normally.
- Implants address speech impediment issues.
- Implants feel more natural than traditional dentures or partials.
- Implants create a strong foundation for artificial teeth.
- Implants prevent bone deterioration.
- Implants are permanent and can last a lifetime if you take good care of them.
The main benefits of dentures and partial dentures include:
- Dentures are a great affordable solution.
- Dentures look just like natural teeth.
- Dentures can replace single or multiple teeth.
- Dentures will allow you to smile with confidence again.
- Dentures provide the correct support for cheeks and lips and help reduce wrinkles.
- Dentures allow patients to eat a greater variety of foods.
- Dentures address speech impediment issues.
- Dentures are the least invasive option to replace missing teeth.
Single or Multi-teeth Dental Implants
Increasingly becoming the gold standard for tooth replacement, dental implants are a great permanent solution because they replace missing teeth roots. Dental implants are artificial tooth roots that connect to the jawbone, providing a long-term base for secure, stable, and comfortable tooth replacement. They are a popular and effective long-term solution for people who suffer from weak teeth, missing teeth, or chronic dental problems. A single tooth implant is a stand-alone unit that does not affect or require treating the teeth next to it, unlike traditional removable bridges. Dental implants are topped with luminous crowns that match the shade of the rest of your smile. Our dental implants start at $89/month with approved credit.
Implant-supported Bridge
An implant-supported bridge is a great solution for patients missing a few teeth. This option replaces the missing teeth and some of the tooth roots. Unlike traditional bridges, implant-supported bridges do not require the support of the teeth next to them. The price of an implant-supported bridge can vary significantly depending on the number of missing teeth. For starting prices, book your initial consult.
Implant-supported Dentures (Overdentures / Snap-on Dentures)
Implant-supported dentures offer an alternative that is far more stable than traditional dentures. These are more effective at disguising lost gum tissue in an attractive way and help retain bone mass, whereas patients who wear conventional dentures can experience weakening jawbones.
Implant-supported dentures are a great option for patients who are missing a full row of teeth. These are a popular treatment type for patients looking for a fixed solution to missing teeth but cannot afford the price of traditional dental implants. Our implant-supported dentures start at $381/month with approved credit.
Full-arch Permanent Implants
Full-arch permanent implants are a significantly beneficial solution for patients who are missing all of their teeth. This option allows patients to smile confidently once again and provides the ability to eat comfortably with full biting force. If you miss eating steak, apples, and corn on the cob, full-arch implants are the solution for you.
The new permanent teeth are supported by titanium posts placed into your jawbone during surgery. Once the posts have fused with your jawbone, an abutment can be placed, which allows you to place your new set of teeth. As little as 4 to 6 implant posts can be used to replace up to 14 teeth.
There are many reasons to consider full-arch dental implants, such as:
- The dental implant is stable and comfortable.
- When properly cared for, full-arch dental implants can last a lifetime.
- The dental implant helps you regain the ability to eat anything comfortably again.
- Full-arch implants can keep you looking younger. Implants prevent jawbone shrinkage that often results from missing teeth and makes you look older.
Our full-arch permanent implants start at $555/month with approved credit.
