When you are missing a tooth, the neighboring teeth may begin to shift in order
to fill in the gap. You may also notice a loss of chewing ability as your mouth
adjusts pressure, placing a heavy burden on the rest of your teeth. Missing
teeth can impact your ability to speak clearly and may also cause your jaw to
collapse, resulting in additional functional and aesthetic concerns.
Dental implants offer an ideal solution for missing teeth.
Secured directly into your jaw, they work to prevent jaw collapse. Using the
highest quality porcelain crowns, we are able to match the color, shape, and
size of your false tooth exactly with the natural teeth in your mouth. In this
way, functionality is restored and cosmetic imperfections are alleviated,
leaving you with a seamless, beautiful smile.
Thanks to modern dental
technology, the dental implant process today is safer, more efficient, and
more reliable than ever. Dental implants have a 95% success rate, and the
dental
crown restorations used by our Bellevue and Seattle, WA implant dentists Dr. Aaron and Dr.
Brandon are virtually indistinguishable from your natural teeth. Since implants
are bonded to your living bone – a process called osseointegration – they
are also highly durable and functional, becoming a natural part of your
smile.
It takes anywhere from 3-6 months for dental
implants to anchor themselves to your jaw bone and heal. Once an implant is
installed, the final crown restoration will be placed, and you can enjoy a new
smile that not only looks and feels great, but protects your mouth from the many
dental problems caused by missing teeth.
