Dental implants are one of the best means to replace lost teeth. They are solid restorations that replace the root and crown of the tooth. The metal studs replace the tooth root and form a strong anchor for your replacement tooth. Dental implants function just like natural teeth. They are stable, durable, and allow you to bite and chew food as you used to with your natural teeth. At Prestige Dentistry in Prairieville, LA, we can offer you dental implants that will restore your oral functions and smile aesthetics.
Implants are composed of a titanium post that is surgically placed into the jawbone where a tooth is missing. An abutment is then attached to the post, which serves as a support for the restoration. The restoration can be in the form of a dental crown, bridge, or dental appliance such as a denture or part of a bridge. This restoration provides a firm base for your new tooth or teeth and helps with chewing food and speaking normally.
Dental implants work in three phases: healing, anchoring, and restoration.
