Dental Implants in Santa Maria

Dental Implants

A dental implant is a structure that replaces a missing tooth. It
takes the place of a lost tooth root. Your surgeon inserts an implant
into your jawbone. If you are missing a tooth or more than one tooth,
you already know the discomfort that comes with it. It can impact your
life in several ways, including eating and speaking. At our office, we
help you recover your normal life using dental implants.

First, we implant an artificial tooth into your jaw. We then use a
crown to cover the top part of your tooth structure. The results are
seamless. Patients have reported that dental implants bite and chew
normally, just like real teeth.

Dental implants can be used to replace:

• A single tooth
• Multiple teeth
• All of your teeth

When replacing all teeth, we do not do one implant for each tooth
instead we use implant dentures. Call us to find out whether you are a
good candidate for dental implants.
