Dental Implant Solutions For Every Kind of Tooth Loss
Losing a tooth can greatly impact your ability to eat, speak, and smile and over 178 million Americans have experienced this setback. Luckily, Drs. Terence, Kayla, and Casey Lau provide dental implant solutions for every type of tooth loss.
Dental implants are an effective treatment because they fuse to the jawbone through osseointegration, creating a permanent anchor that looks, feels, and functions like a natural tooth. Dental implants also protect against tooth loss-related health issues such as gum disease and indigestion.
Whether you’ve lost one tooth or multiple teeth, our team can provide a dental implant solution to restore your smile’s full function and appearance. Contact us today to schedule a consultation or keep reading to learn more about our dental implant solutions.
Single Tooth Restoration
For patients missing one tooth in one or more areas or have a tooth that’s severely damaged and needs to be extracted, Dr. Lau recommends a single tooth restoration.
For a singular restoration, Dr. Lau will surgically insert the biocompatible titanium implant into your jawbone and attach a porcelain crown as a restoration. Your crown will be the only visible part of the implant.
Multiple Tooth Restoration
For replacing adjacent missing teeth, Dr. Lau may recommend a singular, multiple tooth restoration in the form of implant-supported bridges. Unlike traditional bridges, implant-supported bridges don’t rely on your healthy surrounding teeth for support. This saves them from the enamel shaving process required for traditional bridges, helping to prevent decay and infection. Bridges are often cheaper than multiple individual implants while providing a stable, attractive restoration.
Full Arch Restoration
Dr. Lau offers TeethXpress®, a fast and cost-effective solution for patients missing most or all of their teeth. TeethXpress involves replacing all the teeth in the upper and/or lower arches with a full arch restoration, which is securely attached with a minimal number of strategically placed implants. This full arch restoration, combined with the positioning of the implants allows patients to have their smiles restored on the same day as their appointment!
TeethXpress restorations are durable and don’t require removal for cleaning, allowing patients to maintain good oral hygiene. If you’re looking for a quick and efficient way to restore your smile, contact us today to learn more about TeethXpress and schedule a consultation.
Dental Implant Solutions FAQs
Which dental implant solution is right for me?
Determining which dental implant solution is right for you will vary based on a variety of factors. The health of your gums, the density of your jawbone, and the number of missing teeth are all factors your implant dentist will consider when deciding on your dental implant treatment.
During your consultation, your implant dentist will gain a better understanding of you and your smile, helping him make the best decision on your treatment process. Once they decide on the right dental implant solution for you, they’ll create a personalized treatment plan so you can live with a complete, new smile in no time.
Can I get same-day dental implants?
Our office offers same-day dental implants with TeethXpress. With this teeth-in-a-day solution, you can replace a full arch of missing teeth the same day as your implant placement. Your implant dentist will assess your individual needs to determine if TeethXpress is a good restoration option for you.
Can I get dental implants with severe jawbone density loss?
If you’ve experienced severe resorption, you may still qualify for implant solutions like TeethXpress. Your implant dentist will evaluate your needs during your initial consultation and determine which implant solution suits you best.
When is it too late to get dental implants?
In most cases, it’s never too late for dental implants. You may be disqualified from receiving certain kinds of dental implants based on factors such as how much bone density you’ve lost or if you suffer from certain chronic illnesses. In other cases, you may require supplemental procedures such as bone grafting first. Your implant dentist will go over your implant solution options with you during your consultation.
