A missing tooth can be more than just an inconvenience. It may affect your ability to eat and speak comfortably, alter your facial features over time, and even lower your self-confidence. But you're not alone - millions of people in the United States are also dealing with tooth loss for various reasons. At LI Dental Group, LLP, we understand how important it is to restore your smile after losing a tooth, which is why we offer advanced solutions like single-tooth dental implants.
For many years, fixed dental bridges were the go-to solution for replacing a missing tooth. This method involves placing an artificial tooth between two dental crowns. While it's still a viable option, you may also be a candidate for a single-tooth dental implant.
Dental implants represent the most cutting-edge approach to replacing missing teeth. Unlike traditional bridges, which require preparation and crowning of adjacent teeth, a dental implant is completely self-supporting. This means that a single dental implant combined with a crown can effectively replace your missing tooth without affecting any surrounding teeth.
When you lose a tooth, the bone in your jaw that once supported it starts to shrink over time. This can eventually compromise the support for future restorations and even lead to facial sagging. However, dental implants stimulate the jawbone and help preserve its mass, ensuring optimal facial contours.
Not only can dental implants replace a single missing tooth, but they're also capable of replacing multiple teeth or even an entire smile. They provide exceptional support for long-span bridgework and full-arch restorations, as well as added retention and stability to removable dentures.
At the office of LI Dental Group, LLP, our dedicated staff takes pride in providing exceptional care tailored to your unique needs. We use state-of-the-art equipment and materials, ensuring that you receive a smile you'll be proud to share.
