Are you suffering from missing teeth? Do you worry about how to adjust to spaces in your smile or with the hassle of wearing and removing dentures? Worry not, tooth replacement is getting more permanent, realistic and comfortable by the day. The office of Comfort Dental Care offers high-quality dental implants that can be used to replace one, some or all of your teeth in a fixed, permanent and highly aesthetic manner.
What is an implant?
An implant is a small, titanium screw that is surgically placed into your jawbone to replace the root portion of a lost tooth. The advantage is that it titanium naturally fuses with the jawbone and becomes a permanent part of your mouth. This process is known as osseointegration. Artificial teeth can then be attached to the implant.
At Comfort Dental Care, we offer the following implant options:
Endosteal implants
These are traditional implants used to replace a single missing tooth. A person receiving endosteal implants must have a dense enough jawbone to be able to support the implant successfully. If a person has low jawbone density at the implant site, a procedure called bone grafting can be done at the site which can add to the strength of the bone.
All-on-4 Implants (Teeth-in-a-Day)
For people who are missing all of their teeth in one or both jaws, the All-on-4 concept is a revolutionary treatment that allows us to replace a full arch of teeth with only four specially placed implants.
Hiossen Implants
Hiossen is a widely renowned dental implant brand that offers dental implants with a high Implant Stability Quotient (ISQ) value. Hiossen implants are known to promote bone healing and provide solutions for difficult cases.
