Are you missing teeth? Do you find this keeps you from professional and social situations? Missing teeth can have a dramatic impact on a person’s self-esteem. Embarrassment and self-consciousness may cause people to withdraw and avoid interactions with others.
Missing teeth can result from disease, trauma, or extraction. Regardless of the reason, the excess space change oral structure, making daily tasks like chewing and proper oral hygiene difficult. At Virginia Biological Dentistry, Dr. Olivia Hart offers patients dental implants to replace missing teeth and restore smiles.
Dental implants are permanent restorations that look and act like natural teeth. They are composed of titanium posts surgically placed in the jawbone. An “artificial tooth root,” the implant heals and eventually integrates into the patient’s bone. Dental implants are stable and have the strength of natural teeth. They are an excellent solution for replacing a single missing tooth, or an entire arch of teeth.
Once the implant is integrated, Dr. Hart covers it with a porcelain crown to complete the restoration. Your smile will look and feel natural.
