Like with most things you don't appreciate until you no longer have them, your full smile is here one day and gone the next. When you lose one or more teeth to extractions, the empty space that they leave is glaringly obvious. You can see it in the mirror, and so can everyone else when you talk or laugh. It's natural to feel self-conscious, but at Brick Dental you can restore your smile with dental implants and restore your confidence and self-esteem along with it.
Are you a good candidate for our Brick dental implants? There's only one way to find out for sure. Come in for a consultation, examination, and applicable testing. One area that is essential is your jaw. The bone tissue there must be strong and thick enough to provide the necessary support. Why is this? After all, no such requirement is applied to traditional bridges and dentures. That's true, and the reason is that our Brick dental implants are anchored in your jaw, with roots that are every bit as reliable as one of your natural ones. A post, usually made of titanium, is placed in your jaw, and over the course of several months, your bone tissue grows around and fuses with it. The other essential part is the tooth-colored crown, which is the visible and usable tooth. It is fashioned from impressions and then cemented to the post. In some cases, an abutment will be added to the post for added dependability. It's even possible to replace several or all of the teeth on your upper or lower jaw, using a minimal number of posts to support a state-of-the-art denture.
Get back a full complement of teeth; strong ones that you can chew food confidently with; ones that will last you for many years to come. Set up an appointment to come in and determine if our Brick dental implants are suited to you.
