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.

BEST BURTON DENTISTS
Love this dentist office. I had to switch from a long time peds office and this office is so great with my child who can be very anxious. She just got Invisalign’s and the Dentist took the time to explain everything to her and help her understand it all, including practicing how yo remove them. I am so thankful I found them.

Greatly appreciate the time Dr. Bundy took to put my crown back in place. The original work was done by an out of state dentist less then a year ago. Dr. Bundy offered to contact the insurance company to see if the work could be re-done and covered. Very happy the office is willing to work with the insurance company on my behalf.

The Dr's and staff here are so good. I really love that I found this place and recommend it regularly.You should stop reading there...That said, I HATE when businesses ask me to do online reviews! Hate it! Stop asking! I only do it for businesses I honestly like so that tells you something right there. But honestly, this is a plea to all businesses: STOP trying to engage your clientele to the breaking point. I don't need 10 text messages and 6 emails and 2 voicemails (especially after I've already confirmed) to be followed up with "Won't you take 5 seconds to rate us online???" Ugh just no. Far too much!
