While tooth loss has an effect on the look of your smile, it can also lead to further dental complications if the tooth is not replaced. That’s why more and more people turn to dental implants to replace their missing teeth. It not only provides a natural tooth look and feel, it is the longest lasting tooth restoration that helps keep your smile healthy, too.
How Do Dental Implants Work
Dental implants act like a complete tooth. A titanium post is first surgically implanted into the jaw bone, acting as a tooth root. The post eventually fuses to your jaw bone so there is no shifting or slipping. This is what provides a solid and long lasting support for the replacement tooth.
Once the bone heals, an abutment is placed on the post. This connects the tooth crown, or the replacement tooth, to the post. The crown is then placed on the abutment and will look and function just like your natural teeth.
Dental implants are a popular treatment because of advantages that include:
- Offer a natural look and feel – Implants look and feel just like your natural teeth. They provide a comfortable fit and you won’t even notice the difference. They provide a strong and permanent solution that allows you to live life with confidence.
- Long lasting – With proper care, your implants can last up to a lifetime, unlike other tooth replacement treatments. In fact, there is no additional care needed. Brush and floss as you would your natural teeth and visit your dentist for regular checkups.
- Protect from further dental damage – A missing tooth can cause the jaw bone to slowly deteriorate over time and even cause bone loss. As dental implants are positioned in the jaw bone, they help stimulate bone growth and keep the jaw bone healthy and intact. Implants also stop the shifting of your natural teeth which can occur due to missing teeth.

It’s taken me four years to get back to the dentist! Due to previous experience’s with dentists I have horrible anxiety and truly felt any dentist I went to would be the same outcome.Today, I finally listened to a close friend of mine and went to Today’s Dental Comfort. During my visit I needed a tooth taken care of that a previous dentist already “fixed”. Not only was the work night and day but the care given from all staff to help me keep calm and feel welcomed was wonderful. Having someone listen to me about needing more numbing and having trouble with an area was a huge change. Never once did I feel less than like I didn’t know what I was talking about. This was a huge change and now look forward to going back to the dentist regularly.

I recommend everything and everyone at this office. Not only are they friendly the doctor bus ever so gentle. I was so nervous to go in for my visit today. I knew I was going to have to have a shot. All my worries were for nothing. I have never been to a dentist before and not felt an injection until today. Phew 😅 what a relief. I will have no worries for my next visit. I recommended the office to at least 4 people today.
Thank you.
Thank you.
