A missing tooth affects more than your appearance. The bone underneath that empty spot depends on a tooth root to stay active and healthy. Without that stimulation, the bone gradually wears down. The teeth on either side can begin to lean into the gap and throw off the natural alignment of your bite.
Every implant goes into the jawbone and takes on the job of a natural root. The bone gets the stimulation it needs, and the teeth around it stay in their proper positions. With routine care, your results can hold up for many years to come.
Starting at Johnson Dentistry is simple. Your first visit is a consultation where we take the time to hear what is on your mind and get a thorough look at your oral health. Then we build a clear, plan around your goals and your budget. Dental anxiety is something many people deal with, and our sedation options are here to make the whole process easier.
Here is what Johnson Dentistry offers for patients missing one or more teeth:
- Implant Crowns: A single crown placed on one implant fills the gap and blends in with your natural smile.
- Implant Bridge: When multiple teeth in the same area are gone, a bridge anchored by implants spans the space without touching healthy neighboring teeth.
- Implant-Retained Dentures: These dentures click into place and hold firm throughout the day, giving you the freedom to eat, speak, and smile with confidence.
- Implant-Supported Dentures: A bar connected to your implants provides the strongest hold available, making chewing feel far more natural than it does with conventional dentures.
Taking care of implants is easy. Brush and floss each day the same way you would with natural teeth, and keep up with your routine cleanings and exams. These simple habit are what it takes to protect your results for years to come.
