Dental Implants in Dedham, MA

Tooth loss is a problem that millions of Americans face. Chewing, eating, and enjoying food can be challenging if you’re missing one or more of your teeth. Gaps in your smile may also leave you feeling self-conscious about interacting with other people.

While these concerns are at the forefront of your mind when you’re dealing with tooth loss, there are also other impacts to your dental health that you may not be aware of.

The loss of a tooth root also results in loss of bone density in your jawbone since your root keeps the bone healthy and stimulated for regrowth. In addition, your jawbone supports your teeth and the facial structure of your lips and cheeks, so losing bone can impact surrounding teeth and give you a more aged appearance.

Without a tooth replacement, a gap in your smile may also allow neighboring teeth to drift. When teeth move out of their proper position, it results in bite misalignment, leading to jaw joint concerns.

Dental implants offer an ideal solution to these problems since they replace both your tooth and root. They are the only tooth replacement that can provide this benefit.

Our dentists have completed the advanced training to place dental implants at Dental Park, so our patients don’t have to seek out a specialist. Our dentists use 3-D Cone Beam technology during a simple surgical procedure, which provides a guided outline for precise and accurate implant placement with optimum results.

Once your Dedham dentist successfully places your implant, it’s time to let it heal. Dental implants are made of biocompatible titanium that fuses and integrates with your bone over a few months so it can provide the same stability as a tooth root. Our dentists will monitor your healing progress over the next few months.

When your implant is fully healed and ready, our dentists will place a custom-designed restoration to restore your smile. They’ll recommend a ceramic porcelain crown for single-tooth restoration. Ceramic porcelain is durable and provides the aesthetics of a natural tooth.

Patients who have multiple teeth to replace can also enjoy the benefits of dental implants. Tooth implants can support prosthetics like dentures or bridges to offer multiple tooth replacements.

Dental implants in Dedham offer several other benefits for patients with missing teeth, such as:

• Restoring bite function with all the properties of a natural tooth
• Brushing and flossing ease
• The appearance of a natural tooth that complements your smile
• Longevity with the potential to last a lifetime
• Cost-effectiveness as it won’t need replacement with the proper care
• The option for restoring multiple teeth
