Are dental implants worth the cost? Absolutely! At Oak Hills Dentistry, implants are a critical restorative dental procedure, used on a wide variety of Spring, TX patients.
A dental implant is a permanent tooth replacement that looks, feels, and functions like a natural tooth.
The actual dental implant material is usually titanium. A post is surgically inserted into the jaw bone to replace the root of the missing tooth. The post integrates with the bone to provide a stable foundation. This is important because the root replacement post helps prevent jaw bone deterioration that usually occurs after a tooth has been lost.
When the implant has meshed securely with the bone (it can take up to six months), a smaller post is attached. This post extends above the gum line. The artificial tooth (crown) is then attached. Same-day implants are available for some patients who fit the criteria. Schedule a consultation with our team to find out more about your situation.
The cutting-edge dental implants available at Oak Hills Dentistry are extremely versatile and can be used in a variety of configurations. One dental implant can replace one missing tooth. A series of implants can replace more than one tooth or anchor a dental bridge. Denture wearers should know that tooth implants can also serve as a sturdy base for partial or full dentures.
When analyzing the cost of dental implants, it’s essential to compare them to other restorative options such as a dental bridge.
