How Dental Implants Work
Dental implants are a long-lasting solution for replacing missing teeth. They consist of three main parts: the implant post, which is surgically placed in the jawbone, the abutment, which connects the post to the crown; and the crown itself, which is the visible part of the tooth that is custom-made to match your natural teeth.
Dental Implant Restoration
At Orwig Dental Co., we specialize in restoring the visible portion of your dental implant. Once your dentist has placed the implant post and it has healed, we create and attach a custom crown to complete your smile. The result is a strong, natural-looking tooth that blends seamlessly with your existing teeth.
The Benefits of Dental Implants
Choosing dental implants offers numerous advantages over other tooth replacement options:
- Natural Appearance: Implants look and feel like your natural teeth, helping you smile with confidence.
- Long-Lasting Solution: With proper care, dental implants can last a lifetime, making them a durable and reliable option.
- Improved Oral Health: Implants help prevent bone loss and maintain the structure of your jaw, supporting overall oral health.
- Enhanced Comfort: Unlike dentures, implants are securely anchored in your jaw, eliminating the discomfort of shifting or slipping.
- Restored Functionality: Implants allow you to eat, speak, and enjoy life without worrying about missing teeth.
