Dr. Andrew Edmonds of Georgetown, TX is committed to providing patients in the community with the best possible treatment options for a range of dental concerns. One of the reasons patients might visit his practice is to learn more about missing teeth replacement options. Our dentist understands how a missing tooth or several teeth can impact the appearance, health, and function of the smile, which is why he offers many solutions to choose from. One of the most popular options for many of our patients is that of the dental implant.
How Dental Implants Work
The team at 4405 Dental Studio describes the dental implant as a metal post that is used to function as a natural tooth root once did. The post is placed into the area of the lost tooth during oral surgery. It stimulates the growth of bone around it through a process known as osseointegration. The bone growing around the implant is what holds it firmly in place for the best in stability and strength. Once the implant is solid in the jawbone, the dentist can restore the top in several ways. Restorations such as these are commonly used over implants:
- Porcelain dental crowns
- Dental bridges
- Full cosmetic dentures
The implant is the foundation for the replacements. Many patients choose this treatment because it functions better than any other option due to the support of the jawbone. It also maintains natural bone to avoid dental resorption and provides a lifelong repair with proper care and attention. Patients find that dental implants are a no-fuss way to replace one or more teeth in the smile, and are often highly satisfied with the final results they have achieved.
