Say goodbye to self-consciousness and hello to a smile that radiates beauty!

If you are facing the challenges of tooth loss and want to consider the placement of a dental implant for one tooth, Drs. Joseph and Julie Boulos may recommend the dental implant procedure to you. There are multiple ways to utilize dental implants, and there are also different types available. Educating yourself about your options is the first step towards learning more about how these implants can benefit you and enhance your smile's health, function, and appearance.

Using a dental implant restoration to replace a single tooth does require tooth implant surgery, during which the implant is placed into the bone of the patient's jaw. The implant is often designed using titanium, which is biocompatible with the human body. The placement of the implant stimulates bone growth around it, holding it in place and ensuring years of restoration with proper care. The implant is covered with a dental crown placed above the abutment portion. Patients can also use dental implants to replace multiple teeth, pairing them with dental bridges or dentures to achieve full smile restoration.
