If you are missing a tooth in Richardson, Texas, it’s good to know the available tooth replacement options. Over the last decades, one tooth replacement option has stood out from the rest—dental implant treatment is the closest thing you will get to your natural teeth because it’s stable, natural-looking, and revives your tooth to full functionality. You can always count on Dentistry By Design if you want to replace your missing teeth with affordable yet long-lasting dental implants.
Dental Implants Support a Functional and Esthetically-Appealing Smile
A dental implant is a biocompatible titanium post inserted in your jawbone to replace your natural tooth root. Once healing has taken place, an implant provides a sturdy anchorage for one or more prosthetic teeth. Dr. Brad Tiner is always raving about the superiority of dental implants—and it’s not for the sake of it. Dental implants are far superior to other teeth replacements because they offer the following cosmetic and functional benefits:
- Restored oral functionality: Unlike a denture, a dental implant won’t shift around your mouth. Once the implant post fuses with the jawbone, expect it to function like your natural tooth. This means you can eat, smile, laugh, and enjoy everyday activities without worrying about teeth. Whether you have one or more dental implants, you function as if you have 100% natural teeth.
- Natural-looking: A dental implant not only mimics your natural teeth in performance but also extends to the looks. We complete your dental implant treatment with a natural-looking crown that closely resembles the surrounding teeth.
- Renewed confidence: Holding your smile back because of an unsightly gap? This won’t be the case anymore if you have fixed that gap with an implant. You can smile and laugh all you want without anything holding you back.
- Preserve your bone: Bone loss is common for patients with missing teeth. However, a dental implant can stop bone atrophy by stimulating your jawbone, just like your natural teeth. Stopping bone deterioration preserves your youthful appearance and prevents a host of other health and esthetic challenges.
