Single Tooth Implants & Bridges
Can you explain what Single Tooth Implants and Bridges are?
The most effective way to restore damaged or missing teeth in a specific area is through single tooth implants and bridges.
- Natural appearance
- Solid, natural chewing
- Attached securely and permanently
- Significantly reduces bone loss after removal of a natural tooth or teeth
- No negative impact to nearby teeth like with other options (bridges)
How it Works
A dental implant is a titanium screw used as a base to replace one or more missing teeth. The implant consists of three main parts.
- Implant post (or body) | This is the foundation. It is placed in the jaw and acts as anchor.
- Abutment | This piece connects the implant post and crown
- Crown | This is the visible portion in the mouth. This could also be an implant bridge across multiple implants.
