If you have complete or significant tooth loss, you may think that dental implants are out of reach. You might even feel that you’d need a separate implant for each missing tooth. Fortunately, today’s technologies make it much more straightforward.
Your dentist in Avondale offers implant-supported restorations in the form of implant-retained dentures and bridges.
What is the Process for Implant-Supported Dentures?
Typically, it takes four to six dental implants to anchor a denture to your jaw. First, your dentist surgically implants the tooth root replacement. Then, after they have bonded to your jawbone, we top the implants with a low-profile denture. With implant technology, you’ll never have to worry about your denture slipping or loosening.
Implant-Supported Dental Bridges
For an implant-supported bridge, it may take only one or two replacement roots to secure the prosthetic. A dental bridge is an artificial tooth attached to healthy teeth or connected with a dental implant.
To learn whether you’re a good candidate for implant technology, we have you in to chat with our implant dentist. An exam will let us know whether implant dentistry is a good option for you at this visit.
