If you’re looking for a procedure that restores functionality to your teeth, dental implants are the most logical choice. There are other options that can restore missing teeth, but none have been proven to be more effective than dental implants when it comes to durability and function. Just so you know, while implants are categorized as restorative, insurance typically codes them as a cosmetic/elective procedure.
Dental implants are stronger and more durable than their restorative counterparts (bridges and dentures). Implants offer a permanent solution to tooth loss. Additionally, implants may be used in conjunction with other restorative procedures for maximum effectiveness. For example, a single implant can serve to support a crown replacing a single missing tooth. Implants can also be used to support a dental bridge for the replacement of multiple missing teeth and can be used with dentures to increase stability and reduce gum tissue irritation.
Dr. Slater will discuss these options with you to determine what system will work the best for your particular implant needs. We work closely with an oral surgeon or periodontist who will initially place the implant according to your needs. The doctor will then place the final restoration upon the final integration of the implant in its proper position in your mouth.
So, if you are looking for the best Dental Implants Aloha has to offer, please contact our office today to learn more!
