Plus, you can be confident with your dental implant as they garner a success rate of 95%! You will be able to live without compromising your appearance or your favorite foods.

The Absolute Best Tooth Replacement

A dental implant preserves your bite integrity, by sharing the burden of chewing. Also, neighboring teeth are more stable with a dental implant in place, which also helps retain the jaw bone. You have some time to decide on how to treat a missing tooth, however, you will likely encounter discomfort and compromised function after a while. A dental implant can help you maximize your oral health and appearance.

Dental implants require two phases: surgical placement of the implant by our preferred periodontist and implant restoration, where the crown is placed. Dr. G and her periodontist partner have a long-term and trusting relationship, giving you the best possible results. They communicate regularly to oversee the quality of your entire process and are supportive the entire way. Often, our McLean and Arlington dental implant patients exclaim, "Why didn't I do this before!?"

Implant-Supported Dentures

Dental implants can be used in many ways. They can replace a single tooth, many teeth, or as few as four dental implants per jaw can be placed in order to securely anchor dentures, called implant-supported dentures. The fit and function of dentures is greatly improved with a few implants holding them in place. This combination of implants and dentures may be a great compromise to meet your needs for an effective and affordable restoration.

After your implant has been restored, your oral health and jaw function will be preserved, allowing you to avoid problems in the future. An implant will keep your bones in good health, and the surrounding teeth will not drift, as they can when a tooth is missing. You will also avoid the shrunken appearance of receding jaw bones, and your implant will be so natural in appearance, only you will know it's an implant.

Don’t be embarrassed by tooth loss any longer. Dental implants are the best solution to:

• Replace the crown and root of a missing tooth
• Offer replacement teeth that are undetectable from your natural teeth
• Offer stand alone tooth replacement or complete a full mouth rehabilitation
• Preserve your chewing, smiling and speech functions
• Provide a tooth replacement that will never become infected, decay or need a root canal

• Never need to reduce other tooth structure, in fact they strengthen other teeth by balancing bite pressure
• Offer biocompatible materials, that are friendly with your body and the environment
• Offer hygiene care that is just like caring for your natural teeth
• Expertly match the color of surrounding teeth
