Dental implants are tooth root replacements that are surgically implanted into the jawbone, and used to anchor a replacement tooth, bridge, or dentures. Dental implants are permanent solutions to missing, damaged, or decayed teeth. Not only are dental implants a fantastic cosmetic solution to improve the appearance of your smile, but they have numerous benefits to your oral and overall health, and allow you to get back to living your life.
Benefits of dental implants include:
Dental implants are the #1 most popular tooth replacement option among doctors and patients alike. They are permanent restorations with the ability to regenerate a new tooth root, and are cared for just like natural teeth, so there are no dietary restrictions. Dupont Family Dentistry offers several different implant options in addition to traditional single-tooth implants. All implant procedures are performed here in our office, so there is no need for multiple treatment locations or outside doctors.
The term All-on-4® refers to “all” teeth being supported “on four” dental implants—a procedure that is meant to replace all the teeth, whether they are missing completely or severely compromised by disease or other conditions. The four implants support a fixed prosthesis with 10-14 teeth that is placed immediately, typically within 24 hours of surgery.
If you are suffering from broken, decayed, or missing teeth, dental implants from Dupont Family Dentistry might be a good option for you. Call Dr. Diehl & Dr. Feasel, your Fort Wayne dentists today at (260) 209-1550, or schedule a consultation online today to see what we can do for you.
