Tooth Implant Restorations in New Orleans East
Dental implants are your absolute best option for replacing missing teeth. A tooth implant acts as a permanent new root for a missing tooth. It is a titanium screw that is placed into the jawbone. An abutment and tooth crown restoration are then placed on top of the implant to provide a permanent new tooth that looks and feels just like a natural tooth.
Most people prefer dental implants to dentures, which are removable full or partial sets of teeth that must be removed and cared for in a special manner. Dentures can often feel bulky and are difficult to get used to. Dental implants, on the other hand, are permanent replacements for missing teeth that you care for just like natural teeth.
Eat Whatever You Want
With dental implants, you can eat the foods you want without any fear of embarrassment, and the procedure enjoys a very high rate of success. When cared for properly, dental implants should last a lifetime. Proper oral hygiene and regular dental visits are essential to the long-term success of your implants.
Some dentists perform complete implants and some focus on the implant crown or restoration only. An implantologist, periodontist, oral surgeon, cosmetic dentist or prosthodontist can perform an implant procedure. Implant restorations are dental crowns that sit atop dental implants, match your other teeth in size, shape and color and complete your new smile.
