Dental Implants
Dental implants are ideal for filling in the space if you’re missing a tooth or need it removed. Implants offer the benefit of a realistic-looking replacement that also maintains the integrity and function of your mouth.
At Cohasset Dental, we provide dental implants in Cohasset, MA, with tooth replacements that look and feel like natural teeth. Contact us for a consultation, or keep reading to learn more about this option.
Why Choose Dental Implants?
You could decide to leave a space in your mouth where a tooth is missing, but that course of action often leaves people feeling insecure about smiling and works to reduce their confidence and self-esteem. Another option is to fill it with a dental solution like a denture.
However, dental implants provide a stronger option that mimics the tooth’s root and crown. This means the replacement tooth is permanent and can bite like a real tooth. It also helps keep the surrounding teeth from shifting, which helps prevent alignment problems, and it helps maintain the jaw’s structure. Plus, it restores a full smile.
How Does the Implant Service Work?
During the dental implant procedure, we place a titanium post where the tooth root used to be. Over time, your jawbone tissue will connect the post to itself, creating a permanent and strong base for the top. We then use a crown on top of the post to replace the appearance and function of a tooth.
We can start with a consultation to determine whether implants would work for your situation. They provide a more permanent and beneficial solution than dentures and bridges, yet they come with considerations like a significant cost and determining whether the jawbone has enough stability to support them.
