Restore Missing Teeth with Dental Implant Surgery

Suppose you need to replace missing teeth, Drs. Robert Gemmell, Ty Jaros, and Jacob Gubrud at Distinctive Dentistry in Eugene, Oregon, are here to help. With dental implant surgery, tooth loss can be resolved, even if the tooth is not restorable. Dental implants can replace a single tooth or an entire dental arch.

Why Replace Missing Teeth with Dental Implants

While a missing tooth affects your smile and self-confidence, there are other reasons why replacing missing teeth is essential. For example, if you’re missing a tooth, your remaining teeth will begin to shift. The result can be a crooked smile. 

In addition to changing the way your teeth look, missing teeth also can drastically change the shape of your face. Bone loss can also occur, making it more difficult to replace the missing teeth in the long run. 

Last, the teeth near the missing tooth area are more at risk of developing cavities. Additionally, when you have missing teeth, you have an increased risk of gum disease. 

The Benefits of Dental Implants

Dental implants will make your smile beautiful again, but there are also many practical reasons to consider dental implants.

• Prevents bone loss: Dental implants fuse with the bones in your jaw. This prevents deteriorating bone mass.
• Bite force completely restored: Because dental implants act exactly like your natural teeth, you will have a new, fully functional bite force.
• Matches natural teeth: Dental implants are designed specifically for individual patients and will beautifully match your natural teeth.
• Convenient: Many people don’t like wearing dentures. Dental implants are permanent replacements, so they’re not removable.
• Long-lasting and cavity-free: Dental implants don’t get cavities, so you’ll never have to worry about cavities in your implanted tooth. Implants are made from substances that don’t decay.
