Introduction
Missing teeth can make eating, speaking, and smiling difficult. While dentures and bridges are common solutions, dental implants provide a permanent, natural-looking replacement. At Chestnut Hill Dental, we specialize in dental implants to restore both function and aesthetics.
What Are Dental Implants?
A dental implant is a titanium post that’s surgically placed into the jawbone to replace the root of a missing tooth. A crown is then placed on top, creating a strong, natural-looking replacement.
Benefits of Dental Implants
- Natural Appearance & Feel – Implants look and function just like real teeth.
- Durability – With proper care, implants can last a lifetime.
- Prevents Bone Loss – Unlike dentures, implants stimulate the jawbone to prevent deterioration.
- No Slipping or Discomfort – Unlike traditional dentures, implants stay securely in place.
Who Is a Good Candidate?
If you have healthy gums and sufficient jawbone density, you may be a great candidate for dental implants. If you’re unsure, visit Chestnut Hill Dental for a consultation!
