Our Pleasanton, TX dental implants are an effective way to replace and restore your teeth into a smile that you are excited to show off!
Dental implants are small titanium posts that are used as replacements for the roots of a missing tooth. Once these implants are in place, a life-like crown is placed on top of the post, mimicking the look, feel, and function of a natural tooth.
Our Pleasanton, TX Dental Procedure
Due to their experience, our dentists can restore the appearance of your smile through a fairly minor and routine procedure. The implant is inserted into your jawbone with the use of local anesthesia and a gentle surgical technique. After the implant is inserted, you will need time for your jaw to heal over the metal post to secure it in place. This process can take up to several months, so in the meantime, you'll get a temporary replacement tooth. After the implant has fused into your jawbone, you'll come back to our dental office and our dentist will replace the temporary tooth with a permanent, life-like crown
Whether you're missing a single tooth or all of your teeth, our dental implants can replace:
- A Single Tooth: A single implant is used to fill in any gaps or replace a missing tooth in the lower or upper arch. This is typically the most cost-effective and best long-term investment when it comes to replacing a single tooth.
- Multiple Teeth: These implants can provide support to an entire upper or lower arch of teeth. In most cases, replacing multiple teeth can serve as a replacement for fixed bridgework.
- Implant-Supported Denture: A removable denture can be attached to the implants to transfer pressure into the bone structure instead of the bone surface. Traditional dentures can accelerate bone loss, which makes the jaw shrink and the dentures slip.
Benefits of Dental Implants
Some of the benefits of choosing dental implants as a tooth replacement option include the following:
- Dental implants look, feel, and act just like your natural teeth.
- They don't require any additional maintenance; just treat and clean them the same as you do your other teeth.
- Unlike dentures, you don't have to worry about the implants slipping in your mouth.
- Dental implants will keep the jawbone from shrinking in the area where your teeth are missing.
- They'll also prevent any remaining teeth from shifting in your mouth.
- Dental implants have a success rate of over 95 percent - much higher than tooth replacement alternatives
- Implants are the most durable and longest-lasting of all tooth replacement options - with proper care, they can last a lifetime.
