Customized replacement options for missing teeth
Missing teeth are more than just a gap in your smile. Tooth loss can have a negative impact on your self-esteem, oral health, and ability to communicate. Restoring your smile can be a huge confidence builder, which in turn can open new doors in nearly every aspect of your life. At Edward J Camacho DDS & Confidence Builder Cosmetic Dentistry of San Antonio, patients are provided with completely customized teeth replacement solutions, including dental implants, for patients in the San Antonio, Texas area who have experienced tooth loss. Compared to other tooth replacement options, dental implants offer superior function, durability, and oral health benefits.
How dental implants work
Dental implants are a versatile solution that can be used to replace anywhere from one missing tooth to an entire arch of teeth. Shaped like a small titanium screw, dental implants are surgically placed in the jawbone, where they fuse together with the bone and function like the root of a natural tooth, securely holding the tooth in place in your jaw. This provides a very stable foundation for your replacement tooth without negatively affecting the other surrounding teeth. After the implant has healed, it is finished with a dental restoration such as a dental crown, dental bridge, or denture that has been custom-designed for your unique smile. Dr. Edward Camacho uses durable, natural-looking dental ceramics for your replacement teeth, so they look as great as they function.
Why choose dental implants?
With dental implants at Cosmetic Dentistry of San Antonio, you are investing in much more than just a new tooth. You are investing in your smile, your self-confidence, and your oral health. Dental implants offer several benefits for patients who have experienced tooth loss because they:
- Restore the natural function of your teeth without any restrictions on your favorite foods.
- Fill in the missing gaps in your smile, preventing other teeth from shifting and causing misalignment problems and unnecessary wear and tear on the teeth and joints.
- Help prevent bone deterioration that typically occurs after tooth loss.
- Fill in the hollows your cheeks that missing teeth can create, giving you a more youthful appearance.
- Do not require alteration of the healthy neighboring teeth (such as when adjacent teeth must be altered to secure a dental bridge or partial denture in place).
- Boost your confidence in your smile as well as when you are eating and communicating with others.
- Do not require any special flossing or brushing techniques.
- It can last for the rest of your lifetime with good home care and regular dental visits
