If you want an attractive, durable, and permanent solution to replace missing teeth, then you’ll want to learn more about dental implants. Drs. Farthing and Tepner use this modern restorative solution to solidify smiles, increase confidence, and give patients a better quality of life.
A dental implant consists of a manmade tooth root topped with a custom crown or other prosthetic. Dental implants mimic natural tooth structure in color, durability, shape, and texture. If the dentist determines that your jawbone will support implants, he’ll refer you to a trusted oral surgeon who specializes in implant placement. The surgeon will insert biocompatible titanium posts in your jaw, one for each missing tooth or a few to attach a denture, partial, or bridge. Dr. Farthing or Dr. Tepner will oversee your entire restoration and mount your custom crowns or prosthetic atop the posts to complete your smile.
