This is a ideal if you are missing a single tooth. A single implant is placed and a crown restoration is then attached to the top of the implant to look and function like a natural tooth. A dental implant, if properly maintained, can last a long time. It is a much more reliable option than a bridge or flipper. As an added bonus, an implant cannot get recurrent decay like a bridge can.

If you are missing more than one tooth, but still have healthy gums and surrounding teeth, a multiple-implants solution may be your best option. Two implants are placed and a fixed bridge is attached on top of them.

We can now replace an entire arch using as few as four dental implants! The implants are placed around your dental arch, and a prosthesis (bridge or denture) is then attached. This gives you the look and function of a full arch of teeth without using an implant for every missing tooth.

Dental implants are able to give you a superior level of support and stability when used with dentures. Implant-supported dentures use a few implants to keep your denture in place. A bar is placed on top of the implants to help attach a denture to keep it in place. This eliminates the need for messy denture adhesives and restores the full look of your smile. You can finally eat the food you want to eat while still being able to remove your denture to clean it.

These are similar to implant-supported dentures in that they use dental implants to secure dentures, and they are still removable. The implants have ball/button fixtures placed on top of them, and the denture can snap into place. This will also eliminate the need for denture adhesive while giving you the ability to eat your favorite foods.
