Implants

Dental Implants – the next best thing to Natural Teeth

Dental implants are fast-becoming the most popular solution for replacement of missing teeth and stabilization of dentures.

How dental implants work:

A small, surgical metal cylinder is placed in the area where the tooth is missing. Once the implant is firmly in place, it functions as a foundation for a restoration, such as a dental crown or bridge, or as an anchor to “lock” in a denture.

Your Dental Team

Dr. Reardon works closely with dental specialists, including Periodontists and Oral Surgeons, to coordinate the placement of your dental implant and then designs a natural-looking restoration or custom denture to complete the process.

Advantages of Implants:

Conservative and Natural-looking

When teeth are missing, dental implants are often a more appealing solution than a dental bridge, which requires drilling of surrounding teeth for support.

  • In the case of a single missing tooth, an implant and crown can often be comfortably placed without disturbing other teeth.
  • Porcelain implant crown restorations can be crafted to match the shade, shape and size of other teeth, making the implant tooth look completely natural.

A brighter future for denture-wearers.

Not only do complete and partial dentures fit more securely with the addition of dental implants, these patients are more likely to retain bone and maintain their long-term ability to wear their dentures.
