Dental implants are probably the most important advancement in dentistry in the last 75 years.
If you have a missing tooth, or are missing multiple teeth in a single area, or even all of the teeth in one jaw, you’re likely a great candidate for dental implants.
Are you missing a single tooth?
An implant with a connector (the “abutment”) and a crown is usually the best solution.
Are you missing several teeth in one area?
Two or more implants with abutments and connected crowns or a bridge is likely the way to go.
Are you missing all teeth in one jaw, especially the lower jaw?
We’d probably recommend two or four implants in connection with snaps or a bar and an overdenture. Another option is four to six implants and a non-removable “hybrid” prosthesis. This is a complex situation and requires more discussion. Please contact us for more information.
