What are Dental Implants?
Dental implants are an ideal solution when you are missing a single tooth or multiple teeth. Once complete, a dental implant feels, looks and functions like a natural tooth. Many of our implant patients say they don't even know it is there!
Benefits of Dental Implants
Choosing dental implants to replace missing teeth offers numerous benefits, such as:
- Improved comfort and stability, comparable to natural teeth.
- Restored functionality, allowing you to eat and speak without discomfort.
- Enhanced appearance, as dental implants provide a natural-looking appearance.
- Durable with proper oral hygiene – dental implants can last a lifetime with proper care.
- Improved Jawbone Health - Dental Implants provide vital stimulation to the jawbone which can prevent deterioration and preserve proper contours.
The Dental Implant Process
At MacNeill Family Dental, we provide a comprehensive dental implant service that includes:
- A dental implant consists of a titanium post that is placed in the bone by one of our trusted surgeons. That post acts like the root of your tooth.
- The bone fuses to the post during approximately 4 months of healing time.
- Once that healing is complete, Dr. MacNeill works with her dental lab to fabricate a custom made crown or bridge that she attaches to the implant.
