Implant

Providing implants of the highest quality

3 different types of
dental implants

1. Replacing a single tooth:
Use a single dental implant

Single tooth dental implant replaces your entire missing tooth from root to crown.

If you have one missing tooth or multiple that are not adjacent to each other, then a single tooth dental implant may be your best option.
However, If you have multiple missing teeth adjacent to each other, then this may not be your best option.

Additionally, the next type of dental implant may save you money if you have multiple missing teeth.

2. Replacing several teeth:
Use an implant-supported bridge

Typically, a bridge consists of two crowns on either side of your missing tooth gap with an artificial tooth held by those crowns in between.

Now, instead of having the crowns attach to teeth, an implant-supported bridge has crowns that connect to dental implants.

The process is similar to a single tooth dental implant. However, the teeth missing in the middle of the gap will not receive a dental implant.

The benefits of an implant-supported bridge are you can securely replace multiple missing teeth in a row – without the cost of replacing each tooth.

The downside is that not all teeth will receive an implant, and therefore you will lose some bone mass.

3. Replacing all your teeth:
Use an implant-retain denture

If you are missing a majority or all of your teeth in an arch (upper or lower), then an implant-retained denture may be your best option.

A denture is an artificial arch of teeth. It rests on your gum line and gives you the appearance of a full set of teeth. The problem with traditional dentures is they are removable, which means they can slip, slide, click, fall out, and make daily tasks uncomfortable like eating and talking.

To fix this problem, you can permanently secure your denture with dental implants.
