What’s the Next Best Thing to Real Teeth? Natural-looking Implants!

Although there’s no tooth restoration equal to natural teeth, implants are the next best thing! Implants are just as secure, stable, functional, and attractive as natural teeth. Whether you’re missing one tooth, several, or all of them, our doctors at Longmont Dental, Longmont, Colorado, have implant solutions for you!

How Implants Work

Implants are composed of three parts: a titanium screw, an abutment, and a restoration (replacement tooth/ teeth). The titanium screw is placed inside your jawbone surgically to replace your lost tooth root. We’ll then wait for the implant to fuse with your bone system, a process that can take anywhere between 3 and 6 months to complete.

When the fusing process is complete, your doctor will attach an abutment (connector) to the implant and wait for it to heal. Finally, your restoration (dental crown, implant bridge, or implant dentures) is permanently attached to the abutment to finalize your treatment.

Because the implant post is rooted in your bone, your new teeth will stay firmly in place when you bite and chew. Unlike dentures, your implant teeth will never come loose! You can eat with relish all your favorite foods, including meat, nuts, carrots, apples, and other crunchy foods.

Why Implants Make Great Replacement Teeth

Natural-looking dental implants make excellent restorations for lost teeth. They’re durable, comfortable, functional, and aesthetically pleasing – everything you need in replacement teeth! Moreover, implants offer more oral health benefits than any other dental restoration. They:

Minimize decay and gum disease by making your teeth easier to clean
Keep remaining teeth in alignment by filling gaps left by missing teeth
Correct bite issues and reduce wear and tear on your teeth
Prevent bone loss to keep your jaw and face from sagging
