How can Teeth on Implants® improve your smile?
Teeth on Implants® is a complete oral rehabilitation that will give you beautiful looking teeth and allow you to speak, smile and laugh with renewed confidence. Your new set of teeth will be perfectly aligned and have just the right shade to match the rest of your remaining natural teeth if you choose to restore only one arch.
Functionally, your new Teeth on Implants® bridge will work just as well as normal and healthy natural teeth. Since it is a fixed replacement, you don’t have to worry about having your teeth fall out like you would with dentures.
Your new Teeth on Implants® bridge will also be modeled and designed using advanced CAD/CAM technology to make sure you get a perfect fit. Before getting the implant surgery our dentists will perform a 3D scan of your jaw, gums and teeth which ensures that extremely accurate measurements are made so that your new set of implants supported bridges will come out perfectly the first time around.
Reasons for dental implants
- Replace one or more missing, severely damaged, or infected teeth without damaging the adjacent teeth.
- Better alternative to uncomfortable dentures.
- Eat the food you love again (hello steak and crunchy fruit!).
- Allow you to speak, smile and laugh with renewed confidence.
What are dental implants?
A dental implant replaces the missing tooth at the root, securing the new tooth into the correct position. Implants are made of titanium and integrated into the jaw bone below the gum’s surface. The teeth attached to the implants are natural looking and enhance your chewing ability and smile.
