If you are someone who is missing one or many teeth, and are looking for a dental restoration, chances are that you will need a dental implant. Dental implants are titanium posts that are surgically embedded into your jawbone that will act as an artificial tooth root. These posts will provide stimulation to your jaw through your bite force and improve your oral functions.
Personalized Consultation for Dental Implants
When you come in for a consultation with Dr. Jenny Cheung or associates, our implant dentists will go over your options that will best address your personal needs. When you have lost teeth due to decay or gum disease, the lack of stimulation leads to the bone tissue in your jaw weaking. Depending on whether your jaw is strong enough to support a dental implant, we may determine that you may need a bone graft before undergoing a dental implant procedure.
During the dental implant procedure, our implant dentists will surgically place the titanium post into the socket of your missing tooth. Most often you will be allowed time to heal and for the tooth to bond with the bone tissue in your jaw before having a custom-made dental crown placed over the top for protection and to create a seamless smile.
