What Are Dental Implant Restorations?
Dental implant restorations are the visible, functional components of dental implants that replace missing teeth. These restorations are crafted to match your natural teeth in appearance and functionality. After the implant post has been surgically placed in your jawbone and fully integrated, the restoration completes the treatment, providing you with a seamless and reliable tooth replacement.
Depending on your needs, the restoration may take the form of a single crown, a dental bridge or even a complete or partial denture. Each restoration is designed to restore not only your smile but also your ability to eat, speak and chew comfortably.
Types of Implant Restorations
The type of implant restoration you require depends on the number of teeth you are replacing. For a single missing tooth, a custom crown is used to complete the implant. For multiple missing teeth, a dental bridge supported by implants can restore your smile. If you are missing most or all of your teeth, implant-supported dentures offer a stable and natural-looking solution.
Each restoration is precisely crafted using durable materials to ensure long-term success. Our dentists will help determine the best option based on your oral health, lifestyle and aesthetic preferences.
The Benefits of Implant Restorations
Dental implant restorations offer numerous benefits compared to traditional tooth replacement options. They provide a natural look and feel, blending seamlessly with your remaining teeth. Unlike removable dentures, implant restorations are fixed in place, offering superior stability and functionality. They also promote jawbone health by preventing bone loss that typically occurs after tooth loss.
