Dental professionals agree that dental implants are modern dentistry’s best replacement option for missing teeth. Patients in need of dentures, partials, or bridges, may wish to consider the benefits provided by dental implants. At The Atlanta Center for Dental Health in Alpharetta, patients can schedule a consultation with Dr. Bradley R. Hepler to investigate the choices for replacement. To determine the best solution for each situation, we consider a patient’s health, age, budget, and treatment goals.
Implants provide a supporting structure for an individual tooth replacement, to secure dentures, or in place of a bridge for multiple teeth. Implants are titanium posts that are surgically placed into a patient’s jawbone to deliver bone stimulation as well as support, similar to that of a tooth’s natural root. Stimulation to the bone results in improved bone retention; therefore maintaining the patient’s facial structure over time. The support results in instability for improved function and a more long-term youthful appearance for the patient. The convenience aspects of implants are many, including no slipping or poor-fitting appliances and no troublesome hygiene required. Individual teeth are replaced with an implant and built up to hold a crown to perfectly blend into a patient’s mouth. One or multiple implants may hold teeth to replace a bridge so that natural teeth are not required to be adjusted. Careful assessment and placing of a number of implants can give a patient a more satisfying experience with dentures, so that they are secure, and require no messy adhesives. Care for implant restorations is the same as for a person’s own natural teeth. Choosing implants provides a long-term solution that makes them a wise investment for most patients.
