Restore Your Smile’s Function and Beauty Permanently with Dental Implants

Many people choose removable dentures to replace missing teeth out of convenience. Conventional dentures are easier to get and aren’t that expensive. But cheaper and easier isn’t always the best, especially when it comes to function and appearance. To get the look, feel, and function of natural teeth, there’s only one option: dental implants. Implants can resolve your tooth loss problems permanently. You can learn more about permanent dental implants from your Perry, Utah, dentist near me at Wahlen Dentistry.

About Dental Implants 

Implants aren’t natural teeth, but they’re the next best thing. Whether you’ve lost one tooth, multiple teeth, or all of your teeth, you can restore the beauty of your smile with implants. 

Getting implants is a process that requires surgery. The titanium implant posts are inserted into your jawbone surgically to support your replacement teeth. Then comes a six- to nine-month waiting period to give time for the implant to fuse with your bone system and become your new tooth roots. 

Once the implants are firmly in place, Dr. Jennifer Wahlen or Dr. John Torghele, will attach an abutment to the implant to hold your restoration (replacement tooth.) Lastly, we’ll attach your restoration to the abutment to finalize your treatment. The entire process can take from two to six months, depending on the number of implants you need.  However, there are newer implant options that can shorten the treatment time.

Implant Options for Replacing Lost Teeth

You can choose implants to replace one tooth or many. Implants can also be used to replace all of your teeth, often referred to as a full mouth restoration. 

If you’re replacing individual missing teeth, both Dr. Wahlen and Dr. Torghele will use a single implant to support a dental crown as your new tooth. 

An implant bridge is a restoration used to replace multiple teeth in a row, using implants on either side of the gap to anchor your new teeth. 

To replace all of your teeth, Dr. Wahlen and Dr. Torghele will have custom dentures fabricated for your use. Full mouth restorations are supported by all-on-4 or all-on-6 implant treatment.  These can be completed in 4-6 hours.

When teeth go missing, your smile’s health, function, and appearance take a hit. Replacing lost teeth with implants makes your smile whole and beautiful again! Implants give you back the function and beauty of natural teeth so you can live the lifestyle you enjoy most.
