Restore Your Smile with Dental Implant Procedure

Losing a tooth is a huge deal. It’s not that you’re just losing a little bit of dentin and enamel. Tooth loss can impact speaking, chewing food, and smiling. It can negatively impact your confidence, as people tend to judge those with missing teeth in a more negative light. The good news is that you have options when it comes to tooth restoration and here at Wolfy Dental Group, Dr. Sandra Vukovic and her brilliant team are here to help guide you through all your teeth replacement surgery options.

THE ADVANTAGES OF DENTAL IMPLANTS

Traditional bridges and dentures only replace tooth crowns, not the roots. Dental implants replace your complete tooth, including the roots, to create an entire tooth. This type of restoration has several benefits that include:

Helps preserve your other teeth: A traditional dental bridge uses nearby teeth for support via dental crowns. This means your healthy teeth must be reduced and reshaped to accommodate the crowns. In contrast, implants are implanted directly into your jawbone, eliminating the need to use other teeth for stabilizers.

Teeth shift after extraction: nearby teeth tend to shift into lost tooth space, which changes position of 5 teeth around, when you lose only 1 tooth

Helps preserve bone health: Like natural roots, implants will transfer the biting force vertically directly into the jawbone. This stimulation, in turn, stimulates healthy bone cell regeneration. Without this stimulation from the implants or natural tooth roots, the bone tissue underneath begins to shrink. This bone loss is called resorption and may impact your facial appearance, giving it a sunken look. This condition also increases the risk of bone fractures.

Restores your full bite functionality: You’re likely pretty uncomfortable if you have missing teeth or a poorly-fitted appliance. You may have difficulty chewing your food or even speaking correctly. But, with dental implants, those concerns are a thing of the past. Your new teeth will function and feel like your natural ones, but even stronger!

Longer Lasting: Both mini and standard implants can last for many years. In fact, it’s very common for these implants to last throughout a person’s lifetime, with proper maintenance and care.
