Your Guide to Dental Implants
Dental implants are bridges that are permanently anchored into the jaw. Because there is always a perfect fit, implants are almost the same as having your natural teeth back again. To qualify for implants, you’ll need healthy oral tissues and jawbone ridges that are in good shape. If you’re suffering from tooth loss, talk with Dr. Phillips about whether there is another option for you.
If you are missing one or more teeth, you’ll want replacements that are as natural as possible. If dentures don’t work for you, you may consider dental implants. Unlike dentures, which can be removed, implants are permanently anchored into the jaw itself.
Go Natural with Dental Implants
Usually Dr. Phillips feels you are a good candidate for implants if you have jawbone ridges that are in good shape and healthy oral tissues. When the device is inserted into the jaw, a chemical and mechanical bond is formed. The jawbone actually grows into the implant.
Thanks to advances in implant dentistry in Fort Worth, Dr. Phillips can give you a near perfect fit, and your new smile will look and feel as good as (or better than!) your original teeth.
