Are you missing a tooth? We have a solution for you. Dental implants look, feel and work like real teeth.
Tooth loss has many causes, including advanced gum disease, significant tooth decay, facial trauma, and more. When you lose your teeth, several things happen. Your smile suffers, which impacts your confidence. It becomes more difficult to eat and speak. Tooth loss also causes bone loss in the jaw, which can lead to shifting teeth, tooth damage, bruxism, and TMJ disorder. Traditionally, missing teeth have been replaced with bridges or dentures. At Florida Prosthodontics, we provide an alternative with dental implants.
Dental Implants for All Needs
Dental implants are versatile. They can be used to replace a single tooth or many teeth. To meet a variety of needs, there are several different types of dental implants:
| • | Single Missing Tooth Replacement: One implant provides support for a single crown, replacing one tooth. |
| • | Replacing Multiple Teeth: Also called an implant supported bridge, one or more implants support two or more crowns, replacing sections of missing teeth. |
| • | Full Arch Replacement for Missing All Upper or Lower Teeth: When you are missing an entire arch of teeth, 6 to 8 posts can be used to replace your replacement teeth. |
| • | The All-on-4® Treatment Concept: If you are missing an entire arch of teeth, but do not have the bone mass to support 6 to 8 posts, All on four may be used. This treatment uses four posts strategically placed to support your teeth. |
| • | Smile in a Day: Smile in a Day provides you with the same benefits as any other dental implants. Your teeth look, feel, and function just like natural teeth. They are comfortable and easy to care for. They also protect the health and integrity of your jawbone. |
