Dental implants, like those from The Sugar House Dentist in Salt Lake City, have generated a lot of excitement among people who are missing one or more of their teeth. They sound almost too good to be true: replacement teeth that look and function like the real thing.
We’re happy to tell you: dental implants live up to their reputation. Whether it’s for single or multiple tooth replacement, or even dentures, dental implants surpass any other tooth replacement option there is.
What makes them so much better is in the name, “implant.” Strictly speaking, a dental implant is a titanium post that is inserted into the jaw. It fuses with the bone, and becomes a firm and stable support. Implants and the artificial teeth they support do not slip or click as you talk or eat.
The implant acts as an artificial tooth root. Because of this, they prevent bone recession in the jaw, which in turn supports facial structure. A single dental implant can support a single artificial tooth. Several of them can support a dental bridge, or a full dental arch.
Implants are among our specialties at The Sugar House Dentist in Salt Lake City, whether it’s for a single tooth or implant-supported dentures. Call our office today to schedule an appointment!
