| Dental implants provide
an exciting option for people missing some or all of their teeth. They look, feel, and
function like your own natural teeth. The implant process is effective and it is
safe.
Implants have provided the proverbial "new lease on life" for thousands of
people, allowing them to eat, smile, and speak naturally again. The quality of their
lives has been significantly improved.
Implant systems differ. But for the right candidates, all offer a more functional
alternative to removable dentures.
Traditional
options in replacing a tooth or teeth
are not without side-effects |

A Traditional Bridge
Adjacent teeth are shaped down for a bridge crown. |
|
A Removable Partial or a Full Denture
Arch
A removable partial or a full denture needs adjustments and alignments.
They wear down over time and need to be replaced. The gum tissue and jaw bone continues to
shrink because of the lack of "tooth root".

Case
Illustration for a Missing Tooth |

If you've lost a tooth ...
A lost tooth can be replaced by a single implant. The implant replaces the
tooth root. Next a crown is placed onto the implant. |

A natural feel & it looks
great!

Denture Support |
|
If your dentures slip...
Sometimes you can regain a solid bite and renewed chewing and taste with
implants. Implants replace the tooth roots to provide a solid foundation for a removable
partial denture that doesn't slip. This allows for the patient to have a solid bite and better
chewing ability. |

adjustment. Now my dentures clip onto a solid foundation. A foundation supported by
dental implants. I have my smile back and have a renewed sense of taste and improved my
chewing ability." |
