Tooth Replacement

Losing a tooth can be a concern not only cosmetically, but also medically. Since natural tooth roots are embedded in the jawbone, they provide a stable foundation that allows your teeth to function properly. When teeth are lost or extracted, the bone that previously supported these teeth deteriorates or resorbs, causing further dental problems.

Implant tooth replacement can stop this deterioration and help a patient maintain a stable foundation for his or her teeth.

Long Term Benefits of Implant Tooth Replacement

Tooth replacement offers many benefits to the patient, including the following:

  • Virtually stops bone loss/deterioration
  • Maintains integrity of facial structure
  • Improves facial appearance, restoring lost lip support and minimizing wrinkles
  • Increases comfort
  • Restores natural biting and chewing capacity
  • Improves nutrition and health
  • Increases stability – replacement teeth will not move around or fall out
