What Do Dental Implants Treat?
Bone Loss in the Jaw
If you have lost bone tissue in the jaw after tooth loss, we offer bone grafting to re-establish a healthy structure to support new implants. Bone grafting adds to the existing bone for enough stable and healthy tissue. Sinus augmentation, or a sinus lift, ensures the upper jaw has enough structure to support implants. Dental implants replace teeth at the root to help regenerate bone tissue.
Facial Sagging
Missing teeth can change your appearance and the fit of your bite. If you have multiple missing teeth, facial sagging can become a problem. Facial sagging can make you look older and contribute to bite problems over time. Dental implants stimulate healthy bone growth following a tooth extraction or loss.
They also support the natural jaw structure. Patients who undergo dental implant treatment are less likely to deal with problems like facial sagging down the road.
Missing Teeth
If you are missing one or more teeth, call Elevate Dental Implant Center for dental implant treatment. We offer single dental implants, implant-supported dentures, interim partial dentures, and all-on-four dentures. Replacing missing teeth sooner rather than later is important because they can lead to future dental problems.
Patients with missing teeth are at an increased risk of shifting teeth, tooth decay, gingivitis, periodontitis, and additional bone loss. When a patient loses a tooth, the remaining natural teeth shift and crowd, resulting in crooked teeth and misalignment.
Slipping Dentures
Implant-secured dentures can be the perfect option for patients with poorly fitted dentures or who no longer fit securely. Patients who need messy adhesives for removable dentures may have many problems with their restoration.
Common problems with removable dentures include slipping, bad breath, irritated gums, chipped or cracked teeth, and difficulty chewing. If you currently have a removable denture but want an implant-secured denture, our team can help you. Implant-secured dentures are a permanent solution that looks and feels like natural teeth.
