Dental implants are the only solution available that replaces the entire tooth, both roots and crowns, so we consider this option the highest standard of care for our patients. Our best dental implant candidates exhibit the following qualities:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Missing one or more teeth<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Healthy enough for basic medical care<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Have not had adverse health reactions to surgical procedures or anesthesia in the past<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Have adequate jawbone density and gum tissue volume to support a dental implant<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Are willing to invest time in the months long treatment process <\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Benefits of Dental Implant Tooth Replacement<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dental implant supported tooth replacement offers patients numerous benefits when compared to traditional tooth replacement solutions that restored only those parts of teeth visible above the gum line. Some of the many benefits include:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Long lasting &#8211; compared with traditional tooth replacement options that need to repaired or replaced every few years, dental implant supported tooth replacement prosthetics last for decades.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Stability &#8211; especially for patients who need partial or full dentures, dental implants significantly improve the stability of the tooth replacement, eliminating slipping, gapping, and other concerns. <\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Natural form and function &#8211; the dental implants closely mimic the lost root structure of teeth, and they support replacement teeth that can be crafted from the most natural looking, longest lasting materials. That means dental implant supported replacement teeth look and feel more like your natural dental structure. <\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Improve oral health &#8211; because both the roots and crowns of teeth are replaced, the jawbone and gum tissue is stimulated, so patients maintain better overall oral health and are at a decreased risk for further complications. <\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Schedule Your Consultation for Dental Implants M5R, 3K4<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you want to find out more about dental implants, the first step should be scheduling a consultation with your trusted dentist for M5R, 3K4 patients.
