Losing a tooth to decay or injury is never fun, that’s why Denver Restorative Dentistry strives to help protect your teeth with dental cleanings and exams and root canal therapy to save a tooth when possible. But if you do lose a tooth or require extraction, it should be replaced with a dental restoration. Dental implants are a great way to make sure the jaw bone that supported the tooth stays healthy, preserving your facial structure and appearance so your smile looks great.
Our prosthodontists, Dr. Taylor Goggins, Dr. Brian Aguirre and Dr. Anna Pitz, and our team in Broomfield, Colorado offer dental implants for our patients who have lost teeth. As dental restorations go, they are one of the most stable tooth replacements out there since they are implanted in the jaw bone. Dental implants can replace one lost tooth, multiple teeth or even an entire arch.
Biocompatible, Sturdy and Long-Lasting
The dental implant post, or screw, is biocompatible with your mouth as it is made from titanium. It is surgically implanted into the missing tooth area, acting as a tooth root. Once the surgery site heals and the bone fuses to the screw you will have a stable, durable tooth replacement once the implant restoration is custom-fitted on top of the post. The result? You will have a natural-looking and feeling tooth that can last many years.
Our team of prosthodontists at Denver Restorative Dentistry has years of experience restoring smiles with dental implants and making sure your end result is perfect for you. As it looks, feels and functions just like the rest of your natural teeth so you can smile again with confidence. If you take care of your dental implant, it can last for a lifetime since the long term success rate is between 95-98 % easily outlasting traditional dentures and bridges that need upkeep and repairs and replacement.
Why Choose a Dental Implant
- They are the only tooth replacement option that stabilizes the bone and surrounding teeth, preserving jaw bone from being lost over time.
- Unlike bridges, they don’t involve altering the surrounding healthy teeth to hold them securely in place.
- Unlike dentures that can severely damage surrounding teeth, bone, and soft tissue in the mouth over time, or shift around in the mouth, impacting your ability to chew, speak and even clean, your implant will stay securely put in your mouth.
- Unlike dentures and bridges, dental implants don’t require extra maintenance.
