Implants

Dental implants have become a choice treatment option for many patients who are missing one or more teeth. A dental implant is a replacement tooth "root" constructed of medical grade titanium. A porcelain crown or bridge is attached to this titanium “root.” Teeth restored with dental implants are extremely stable, strong and natural looking. Patients with dental implants are able to eat, smile and laugh without fear or embarrassment that their denture may slip or click, or that their bridge will trap food.

Benefits of Dental Implants
  • Eat all those delicious foods that are difficult to chew.
  • Smile without concern about your teeth.
  • Talk and laugh without the fear of missing teeth being noticed or dentures becoming loose or falling out.
  • Dental implants can never decay.
  • Dental implants have the potential of lasting a lifetime

Implant Stabilized Dentures

Unfortunately, some patients may lose all of their natural teeth due to periodontal disease or tooth decay. These patients no longer have to endure the insecurity of dentures that slip. With implant-stabilized dentures, no longer will they have to carefully select foods that don't require any chewing. Patients can enjoy the confidence of being able to eat foods they previously avoided.  Ask someone on our staff how Dr. Dixon can stabilize your dentures with implants.
