PEACHTREE CORNERS DENTAL IMPLANTS

A dental implant is the best way to replace a missing or damaged tooth. An implant is made of strong and resistant biocompatible materials and is placed in the bone structure under your gums, taking the place of your tooth's root. From there, we'll restore the implant with a crown, bridge, or denture.

A dental implant is a restoration used to replace a single missing tooth or multiple missing teeth in a row. The implant is placed into the jawbone to replace the root, and a crown or another restoration is attached to the post to replace the missing tooth or teeth above the gum line.

Dental implants are a great option for people with good oral health who are missing a tooth or teeth as a result of decay, injury, or gum disease. Implants are an excellent long-term solution because they prevent additional tooth loss by restoring your bite and preventing bone recession. Patients also report an improvement in speech and chewing after getting an implant.

A dental implant is often an excellent solution for those who want to:

• Replace one or more missing teeth
• Resolve bite or joint problems caused by tooth shifting
• Enhance their ability to speak, chew, and smile naturally

Implants have incredible benefits, including:

• Promoting healthy gums and oral health
• Strengthen your jawbone
• Relieving TMJ pain
• Preventing misalignment of neighboring teeth

With proper care, implants are designed to last for many years and even a lifetime. For the best durability, make sure you brush and floss regularly, avoid smoking, and keep up with your twice-a-year dental exams and cleanings.

To be considered a good candidate for implants, you need to have enough bone to support them. If you are missing a tooth or multiple teeth, you may benefit from implant-supported dentures and bridges. If your teeth have been missing for a long time, your jawbone may have shrunk due to bone loss. In this case, you may need bone grafting surgery before you can receive a dental implant.

We also require that you have healthy gums with no sign of gum disease before we can place any implants. Our dentist can provide you with more information about whether or not you are a candidate for implant treatment when you come in for your consultation.

After your procedure, having dental implants will not affect your daily life! You can continue to eat all the foods you love and care for your teeth like normal. You won't notice any change at all; you'll only feel more confident and comfortable knowing that your smile is healthier and stronger. You now have the smile you've always wanted!

Dental implants can last a lifetime if you are committed to daily oral care and maintain a regular brushing and flossing routine. They replace both your missing tooth and its root, preventing bone loss in the jaw. Without these roots, your other teeth may shift out of place over time. However, dental implant patients still need to take care of their gums just as they do when they don't have implants. You should also visit the dentist at least twice a year for checkups and professional cleanings to keep your teeth and gums healthy.
