"Dental Implants Near Me” Have Never Been Easier to Find

Single Dental Implants can Complete Your Smile

At Aspire Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery, we know how closely your physical health is tied to your emotional well-being, and that’s especially true for missing teeth. When one or multiple teeth are missing, it can impair speech, make eating difficult, and cause you to feel insecure about your smile. Our compassionate and knowledgeable team strives to craft a smile you can be proud of, and dental implant surgery allows us to do just that.

Single Dental Implants

Single implants are the perfect option for replacing a missing tooth. The screw-like implant will be anchored into the jawbone to act as the tooth’s root. This “root” is then topped with a support post, or an abutment, and a temporary tooth while the bone heals and bonds with the abutment. After a healing period, a new crown will be attached to the abutment post to act as the new tooth. This crown will match your natural teeth in color and function. When properly maintained, dental implants can last a lifetime. The entire process consists of an initial consultation, a surgical implant placement, a healing period, and the crown attachment.

What Materials Are Used in a Dental Implant?

You might be wondering, “What is a dental implant made of?” Good question! Most implants are made of titanium or zirconium, to ensure both strength and compatibility with your jaw bone. The final crown can be made of porcelain for the most natural look, or it may be porcelain fused to metal for increased strength and durability.
