At Lisa J. McDonald, DMD & Associates, we offer dental implants as a durable, long-term solution for missing teeth. Whether you need to replace a single tooth, multiple teeth, or secure dentures, implants provide a strong, natural-looking restoration that enhances both function and aesthetics. Unlike removable dentures or bridges, implants are permanently fixed in the jaw, offering superior stability, comfort, and durability.
What Are Dental Implants?
A dental implant consists of a titanium post surgically placed into the jawbone to function as an artificial tooth root. Once the implant integrates with the bone, a custom crown, bridge, or denture is attached to restore the tooth’s natural function and appearance.
Benefits of Dental Implants
- Replace one or more missing teeth without affecting adjacent teeth
- Prevent bone loss by stimulating natural bone growth
- Restore proper chewing, digestion, and speech
- Enhance facial structure by preventing the sunken appearance caused by missing teeth
- Provide secure support for bridges or dentures, eliminating slipping and discomfort
